just got back a short while ago and did a quick wash on my car.

It ended up being Phil (diesel86), Rich (I'm_Going_Fast!) and me, we went up the 89 to prescott, ate taco bell and came back down the 89. The view coming back was pretty sweet.

On the way up we had a few bikes and cars in the way, anyone who went last time might remember that lexus SUV in our way, well today there was another one, drove me batty till I passed it lol.

On the way down was the same but most people on the way back kindly pulled out of the way. When we were coming back up grand on the way home shortly after Phil pulled away to head home I ran through a swarm of bees with my windows open at about 90 mph! Luckily none got in the car but they splattered it up pretty good haha, had to was it before the bug goop dried

Everyone got back safe no accidents or tickets, we only saw one police car and that was in yarnell, an entertaining drive, thanks to those who showed up, to those that didn't we look forward to seeing you next time

As a side not this is the first time I gave the akebonos a real hard long workout, they performed awesome

Oh yeah, given the weight difference as long as I run my pump gas tune you will walk me. That car is a lot lighter, more aerodynamic, better weight distribution and better gearing. On paper I'm toast.

Maybe you mis-shift.
In that case, you just beat me the next time around.

I think my race gas tune vs your pump gas would be a better race but I'm not spending $14 a gallon on gas and draining my tank just to maybe win. LOL

I don't blame you for not wanting to spend 14 a gallon on race gas.

I have still never driven my car on the street on the race tune. One of these days...


I bet it will be fun. My car feels fast as hell right now (ya know what I mean!). I can't imagine another 120hp/130tq over this.
