Oct1 test and tune

Looks like me and the car are booked for the test and tune in Oct!!  Knock on wood that nothing interferes with plans (the other half finding out I have a race car etc....) or crappy weather......knock,knock.knock

Good luck.  Darren should be there as well.  I will be stuck watching from the webcam.

mine is almost ready just have to bleed the brakes tonight and it is done. I probably will pit with Darren to get his help and pointers.

10.47 125mph and skating all over second and third gears, 10.52 133 mph and 10.60 138 mph  I think the clutch started to go on the second run and more than likely worse on the third.  Not too bad for my first try.  Unfortunately the next try is next year...

gives you lots of time to figure out where the clutch is to replace it :)

Nice Alp,  138 mph on the first outing, thats some healthy hp.  I look forward to the side by side 9 between you and Darren. How much boost you runing?

Next year will be an awsome year for vw drag racing in the valley, can't wait.

so the car looks to be coming out of the shop on Monday afternoon.  Front brakes installed, new Strange front end and Weld wheels.  Now the thrashing can begin!
