But there is still a time at the end... Drag Racing X4. Hope you can make it to the 1/2 mile race here at Ellington Field Aeros & Autos. Your room is always ready.

No time, just a speed... Aero's and Auto's is probably out of the picture with the current plans being discussed.... Basically we are at square one.... I imagine the entire Turbo system is coming out the car.... and we will start over... with all purpose custom built piping etc...

Thanks for the Invite...

So, I'll get pics in the am, but we pulled the new turbo out and the shaft was broken right in the miiddle of the center section... I have some information from people with lots of turbo experience, so Corey and I will discuss and then call again tomorrow morning... Not sure the route yet, but we have a plan...

Here's the video I have from the weekend. It's still uploading and processing, but should be viewable in the morning.

Apparently I didn't turn the roll-cage mounted camera off before I left on Saturday, so those batteries died and had no juice left to record anything on Sunday. Oh well, it appears that particular mounting location is also less than desirable anyway, so the search for the perfect mounting location(s) continues...

Anywho, enjoy...
