Cruise Tonight Perhaps

[Guest]

I am definately not in any shape to race, even for fun. I am running like 9.5:1 to 10.3:1 AFR's due to a knock problem I can't seem to solve (hence the need for a dyno tune). Sure, I can still pin myself back in the seat from a roll, however from a stop I almost die out on launch (actually did that last week in Harvey, car launched, died, I restarted and beat the chevelle that I was running against..10.5 second run.....too bad that was 1/8 mile and not 1/4. Heh. So, for now I will decline any/all offers for races. After July 16 we'll see what happens.Oh, and my stock top mount is severely inadequate for a larger turbo (hell, they're hardly adequate for stock). After 5 mins of idling the IC is too hot to touch for 10 seconds...I think subaru invented the first "inter-heater" with that.

What happened to you challenging Jim? Everytime he's called you out you've had an excuse. Last night you had a great one, your clutch wasn't holding and causing knock between shifts. Thats a very odd problem. You must have fixed it being you asked Chuck to race. Sounds like your cars up to par today so accept the challenge you made and run Jim.

Yep everything is fixed and I left a message on Jims phone Im more then ahppy to get it done. Spark plugs are installed by my friend so it fixed everything! Jim didnt pick up last night so I assumed he didnt want to go. I will try calling him today actually.

This is somewhat relevant..........

WhiteDragon8303: I boughta 90 eclipse you should race
WhiteDragon8303: when you gonna race that s2k?
WhiteDragon8303: all the eclipse has is a ported 14b, boost controller some rails and injectors
WhiteDragon8303: and I will SMOKE the shit out of you
WhiteDragon8303: so whens the s2k coming out?
WhiteDragon8303: so I can give it an ass whuppin
WhiteDragon8303: and make you realize its a fucking Honduh

And drake i am not calling you out to race, because yes you are faster than me.......... Congrats!!!!!!!

but maybe you should spend less time worrying about racing a car that is in the body shop, and spend more time worrying about the cars that actually "want to race you"

Jim

call my cell phone for that friendly race. I'll be done with work after 5 I'll try to call you before on my break and make plans with ya. I'm sure you will get me from a roll as tjams explained I have the same problem, but what the hell. I want to race from a dig too and see how my 60 foot goes.

[Jim]

Yup! Its setup now... see you then!

[Guest]

UPDATE

Made plans with Jim for tonight, we are going to do both from a dig and from a roll he will be meeting me at my place. EDITED LOCATION (BY JIM)

P.S Tufte you should stop by and bring the teggy, probally gonna get humiliated but lets go for it too anyways.

EDIT REASON: If you'd like to see it / tag along, call my cellphone. Locatin removed for obvious reasons.

[Guest]

My bad

Anyways the teggy will probally humiliate us both Jim, so lets be prepared I got drinks for us afterwards

EDIT: The more I think about it maybe we should make full interior a requirement jk tufte.

[PSI2HI]

Sounds good to me, talon has full interior.

Yup we'll have to do from a stop again.

[GraveDigger]

Put up video!!!!

[amicheze]

yeah dude. i wanna see that shiznit too.

[Guest]

Most definately from a dig, didnt allign wheel and we should have someone flag rather then the 3 honk rule. Tough to judge timing then rather then visibly seeing someone (IE lights)

Just goes to show you the advantages and disadvantages (especially of subarus) AWD Drivetrain.

Had fun though Jim! Maybe this weekend bro? I'm trying to tune it more I'm running so pig rich going to start leaning it out since I updated my UTEC to do open fuel controlling mapped for modded stock injectors.
