In that case, maybe I will pull the trigger on the Challenger and build a race car... got HEMI?

* I can still drive the F150 daily driver... gawd it gives me the creaps with all this domestic crap in my head.

I LOVE the Challenger though! weeeee HEMI I might be joining you!

My first try, I got a 14.777 with my so-called slicks (bald tires) lol
2nd try netted a 14.2 with DRs.
3rd try I ended up getting a 14.1.

I learned never to go to Cal Speedway when it's hot and ALSO I need to get me some DRs lol

Nice Wally, glad you guys had fun out there. Sorry couldn't make it. The whole team wanted to go to HB instead. Maybe when it cools down a bit.

HAHA!! Not exactly. I had an appt with the body shop Saturday morning which is why I didn't go to Cal Speedway. Of course the appt ended up being cancelled because my front bumper wasn't ready yet but by that time, I didn't wanna flip flop again, so I just went to HB. Next time.

I was amazed during the G37 viewing at Stillen when a fellow VQ owner (350Z) asked about local 1/4 mile times and asked why we aren't in the mid 13s like what he has seen on the boards.

I'd LOVE, LOVE, LOVE to race all the 40 degree 700' sea level 13.6ers out there across the country!

We have **** conditions, so base our numbers on what the factors are.

Okay just had to be sure everyone was clear. Even though this is a regional forum, others read and post…
+10000000

It was so damn hot (104 at a point), that the DA's were no better than those at LACR. I checked the DA's for that day @ Cal Speedway, and they were 4839 ft DA's. That's right around the typical density altitude of LACR!

If we attend a Cal Speedway event at temperatures around 50-60 degrees, we would have DA's of around 1643 feet, which is excellent for California standards.

Can't wait for fall/winter

Make up your mind!

Aftermarket FI > Factory FI

It's so much more fun... Do it, Do it, Do it!

lol I am making up my mind. Went to a BMW dealership earlier with my cousin since he's in the market for one. I didn't get too drive the 335i since I honestly want to wait till the new Evo comes out.

So yes, I'm getting closer and closer to FI

has gotta be a nice drive but it's gonna be too impractical for me. I love to be at the track from time to time but I gotta think about it being my DD as well.

Nice car though!

I just thought about the fact that Wally, Mike, and myself are always the regulars at the track. We need more people to become "regulars"
