I wouldnt say not intrested just have more intrest other places. I am sure i will eventually run my car atleast once just for kicks, but with out some suspension modifications and a tire mod it doesnt seem like a good idea to just go blow the tires off.

I'd be interested but don't know that I'd be in an 11.8 class. At least not at first. The car,yes. Also I'm about to head back to Dubai. Looking like the beginning of December will be my next tee time. When do you think this event would be held?

Its suppose to be sometime next month they are still getting the feel for how many vehicles are actually running to get a head count and money count. over 10 mustangs are attending (if it helps any for motivation) and so far if my car is fully broken in I'll be the only one in that class racing I'm going to be using street tires to see if I can mustard out a high 11 I know that with d.rs I'll be deep in the 11s with my new setup

Explain this 11.8 Index. Does it mean I'm consistently 11.8 or does it mean I run no faster than 11.8? Post up when you get a date. If I'm back I'd at least want to come down and check it out. Thx

Red face Sorry to butt in...

Howdy neighbors,
Need some help with a muffler shop to weld in my QTP cutouts.
I would usually use Flanagans.
Anyone else in the area have cutouts? where did you have em welded in at?
Thanks.

if you don't mind me asking, what'd they charge?
PM me with price if you want.

Flannigans would be my first choice. I have also had Schaffers on SPID between Rodd Feild do my J pipes. They were reasonable. Flannigans and first and ask for Rowdy.

If you're consistently hitting 11.80 and no faster then I'd say your walking away with the big pot the fastest you're allowed to hit is an 11.80 but its a heads up race meaning r/t counts.

Angry

Just so everyone knows, Autonation has a 2014 1LE/2SS for sale in black. Unfortunately, they decided to sell the 1LE tires and wheels to another buyer...a buyer of an RS 6 cylinder. They have the car marked at sticker price and it is wearing the silver wheels with Pirellis instead of the ZL1 wheels with Goodyear F1 Supercar tires.

In a retail market, those tires/wheels are worth around $5k. I bet Autonation is trying to make the money twice by selling the wheels/tires to a 6 cylinder RS owner while still asking full price for the 1LE for a greatly devalued Camaro. This sort of shady dealing really peeves me off...


Just venting...


Tara
