Hey Derek,

I know I won't be able to do a burn out because the ECU will cut my power. From what I hear, I'll need that button mod thing...

So considering that, can I just go around the waterbox, rev high and dump the clutch to get the wheels clean? That's what I always do with my stock tires. I'm sure that will get them clean, but I highly doubt that will heat them up at all.

pull your brake fuse under the hood. In order for DRs to stick you have to heat them up they are very soft. I'll show you which one to pull.

So lets make a list since you may get 3-4 runs tops. I have my stock lug nuts the only thing needed is if someone has a floor jack to make it easier and quicker to change tires.

The tires are BFG DRs 265/40/18. I'll probably get there around 8 since racing starts around 9.

run1 ----me

run2 ---- uh me!

run3 --- who do you think? me

run4 (maybe me)

ha ha ha

If you want after we mount them after run 2 then go on the other side of the speedway with some water for you to practice with.

I know that is the fuse those guys from PF (audiblemayhem and AJ350z) pull when they race and you know what times they run on their sea level tracks.

Send them a PM maybe they can give you some pointers. If they give you some advice post it here for the others to use.

Oh ok. As long as I can brake...

I guess you'll give me a better overview at the track but... Do I just rev high at the waterbox, drop the clutch and heal and toe?

I just hope I don't stall!

Do you have a helmet I know you need one. See pics. I still have your dyno run on my laptop from 2yrs ago.

I thought your car put down almost 350tq that day. I know it was more than the vortech Gs (RandysG).

Don't worry you won't lose your brakes your abs, slip and vdc lights will be on. They will go out once you replace the fuse and drive over 10-15mph. Remember we can go somewhere for you to practice your launch since it will be at least 1hr between runs.

Well, if there is a 4th run, I guess I'll try the DR's. I've never done a burnout in a G either so I guess I will need pointers/help too. It was so easy to do a burnout in my Civic and I used slicks. Just pull up the handbrake, rev up to about 3k rpm and dump the clutch! I take it that is not how you do it in a G??

Run1

Run2: RedondoG

Run3: Skaterbasist

Run4: Hexx

that would be a no-no lol since you're SC now, it'll be much easier for you to spin the tires and not get the car to go anywhere.

whenever I do a burnout, it's a good 2-3 seconds. No need for the hand brake at all. Just raw power
