I'm in, weather looks to be sunny with cloudy periods maybe 20+ so could be a good night.

Sounds good, since there is no comparison in a NA to a Turbo lets race but bracket style.
Get your dial in ready :D

I think Cale is planning on going out to friday test and tune. Im going out to come out too, my daughter really enjoyed the beetle bugs and she wants to come out as well. Good to hear you are going out as well Geoff cause she really wants to see the pretty pink bug go again :wub: .

Thats not all that fun, Headsup racing is great to see what your car will run but bracket racing takes some work.
Better brush up on it cuz Seattle is all bracket :o

Yeah i remember it well Hans, It sucked to take you out but at least it was a major rare type of race. To have two red light and two break outs is verey very rare.
That day turned out good for me, I went 5 rounds to win with a  13.31 on a 13.30 dial in :D

Seattle is only 3.5 weeks away, looking forward to running along side (not against you)again.
Good thing it's the slow light style, that will give shane time to re start the car after he stalls it....again ....and again :lol:  lol

I'll be there Gang. Can't wait! It's been a long time since I've had some seat time in anything with a little power! 2110cc with 10.5:1 compression in a type three whoopee! it pulls real hard.
 I've had two weeks of street trials and I think it's ready for some serious pounding. Just have to add some real seat belts, do some metal fuel lines, change the oil adjust the valves, add a breather box , top er off with some mohawk 94 and she'll be readddy to go! See Ya around noon froday Hans we can cruise out in our STREET cars together.

Im doing everything i can to get my car 2 the track..its running again..but im BROKE! lol and i still have the rubber oil lines on the car...and i still need a wheel alignment..

im gonna see what i can do to get the wheels done tommrow..maybe some local shop can do em..and i need to get some more cash to get the oil lines done up..

F*%k.. i wish it was like street legals way back when they did not care about anything...now all you fast guys are makin it a Beatch for me to get my car on the track!

PLUS i dont have a roll cage..

BUT if (or more when) i get all this stuff done..i will be there..
and i will keep it only at 10 PSI..and keep my throttle the way it is (only opens 3/4) and that should keep me from going way 2 fast.

well i might crank the boost up a little :) but only after a few slow passes.

try West Coast Alignment and Frame, they are on Powell st. just east of Clark. There was a guy there named Jamie that drove a killer silver square.

Cale, If you  have a apron on there im sure tech will not even notice the oil lines. I ran rubber lines at mission for three years.
Jamie left west coast alignment a few months back, they are still your best bet to have it done quick. If they cant try Tekam automotive in Burnaby near the old Cal imports on Mcpherson ave ask for Rudy.
