The plan as of right now, is to trailer (yes trailer) the 'stang down from Redding on Saturday. It is by no means because I have to, since I will be driving it up to Redding from the Bay area after work on Friday (Just like I do every weekend) It is more because if/when I break it, I won't have to wait for AAA AGAIN I have done some "retuning" and should be exceeding the capacity of the factory 5.0L block
So get it out of your system now, call it a trailer queen, talk smack about it not being a true street car, or whatever you feel like saying

That sucks, I was almost looking forward to running him even though the outcome this time would be much different (He would kick my ass this time) He's still coming to the event isn't he?

As of now, the both of you are going up against low low 11 second f-bodies or high high 10 second ones, so previous_jet size+50=required_current_jet_size

HEHEHEHEHE, I should be able to hang pretty well, plus I have been working on my lights so I should be in the .51x - 52x range on the tree

Brian, we have no doubt you'll run the numbers...... my post was directed more towards shade-tree. Our top 5 guys are trbo50, John91Coupe, TheBrain, and it'll be a toss up between shade-tree and CAMARA90 for the 4th and 5th spots.

Brian, just looked over the list again. You'll be going up against WHITE_LIE or Crash. John91Coupe will race the fastest of the two (I think that'll be WHITE LIE)

Only a Redding person on weekends, Stay and work in the Bay Area during the week. Just bought a house off of Lake Blvd last summer
Do you ever go to Redding's track? Should be pretty nice for the next race since they are repaving it Monday

Unfortunately against my better judgement I'll be bringing the 150 jets
Mike's 347 could very well out ET me on the N20 so go ahead and put him above me, or just wait till tomorrow and see how a test pass goes?
(LOL! I'm paired up with a 11.2 running A4 stalling 409 !!) [ June 13, 2003, 06:24 PM: Message edited by: shade-tree ]

Their "race list" isn't updated, I'm going by a "secret" ranking list, and telling you guys, our #4 will likely be against the 409 stroker our #5 will likely be against the ForceFedPerformance Z06 (heh heh, maybe TheBrain wants the #5 spot after all ) This is assuming Darko doesn't spray his stroker LT1.
