Just Kinda seeing who is going to be out there on Friday. First Friday night TNT of the year. Hopefully I will finally click off a 11.xxx Pass that night with the cooler air.

I'm trying to make it Friday night also, maybe my cousins car will be done by then and he can get some baseline passes with the new blower combo. Is anyone else thinking of going? Aaron you should pull 11's easy with the cool air

Whats the blower combo he's trying out? I really want to get myself some ET drags and skinnies. But I would rather for sure run 11's with full street trim.

Well he was running GT-40 y303 heads with a 100 shot dry. Now he bought Trick Flow Twisted Wedge heads that we did a little porting work to and he also bought an S-trim. With my dad's help we're trying to get it fired by tomorrow night. We are hoping all this will be worth 1 tenth so he can beat his 11.06 and hit a 10.99. Hopefully some other board members will be out there.

I should be there. I won't be there with my Mustang though. I will be bringing my 2001 Audi S4. It is blue and last time it ran a 12.0 @ 122mph.

Yeah, the SRT it's black. Everyone on the 300C board says the engine makes more power the more miles you drive it (around 5000+ miles) I only have 1100 miles so far but haven't been to the track in ages since I owned my 2000 saleen. The weather cooled down big time hopefully it stays that way, right now it's chilly outside.

---

Yeah it cools down nicely once the sun goes down. yet the ground still stays a little warm. It should be pretty good track weather. Hope for a tail wind too.

at what time will they open? how many runs are you expecting to get? price? will they be open on saturday also? sorry about all the questions, i'm just not very familiar with sac.
I really want a 12 sec slip and keep getting closer and closer.. i can't stop now.

they open at 6pm I think till 10pm. Should be like 50 or 55 bucks to run, and no more saturdays. Now for the summer it will be fridays cause is gets too hot to run during the daylight on saturdays.

how many runs would a street car get?
not really worth the drive and money for just 3-4 runs you know..

Man I would kill myself if I trapped 122 and didn't get an 11 sec slip.

What do you have done to that thing and what does it put down?

---

All the info on my Audi is here. http://www.jaybquick.com/01Audi.htm


The shift linkage on the Audi is like the 1960s Muscle cars but even worse. It feels like rowing a boat. That is why the high MPH and crap ET. My 91 GT runs 11.92 @ 115mph. Big diff between the 2 shifting wise.

122 is some damn good MPH for a wing-dinger like that

See you there

Hey Punisher TNT is from 6-10pm, I seen you pulling up to the gate at like 9:45 you need to leave a little earlier next time j/k. I seen your pass, too bad you had to let out of it at half track. Nice stang BTW.

Yep, it looks like that dude was enjoying my old cylinder heads and intake

Yes, the yellow stang sounded sweet. I have a few videos I haven't uploaded them yet.

Posted by Yellow94GT (Member # 431) on :
 
Hey Dennis, let me know when you upload the vids. Even though my car was running like a three legged dog, I'd still be interested in seeing the vids.

Also, sorry I didn't come introduce myself. Again, I was "having issues" with my car. Just glad I was able to work some of them out before the Norcal race

Hey speaking of videos with cars that arn;t going as fast as they should, where is my E-mail Cock Wrangler????
 

---

Posted by Yellow94GT (Member # 431) on :
 
I'll get that going right now.

Posted by DennisG (Member # 163) on :
 
Unfortunately I thought I took more vids than I did! I only took a few during the day light hours as I was racing at night. I have a couple of the audi's, camaro's, and a 9 sec. bike. Here is one of the black stang. It's hard to make out what the clock says, but I decreased the size (from the uploaded one) and it looked like a 11.2 @ 126mph. I think this is the same one that I raced with his 2.9 sec reaction time...Anyone here? Also photobucket screwed the resolution as the original was much better.

Hey Dennis thats me, i think that was my first run of the day. As for my reaction time, i was just trying to find what RPM's my car wants to be launched at. I kept playing with it that day. I think that run was a 1.71 60 ft, but i got it down to a 1.59 later in the night.

Ah. It was funny because I was expecting you to dust me off the line and didn't see you. Then I see you in the side mirror reeling me in towards the end!
