Is that running the old engine and trans or will you have made the swap by then?

[frd906]

old engine and box, unfortunatly, but will endevor to go back with new one in, well when i run it in

[broken_suave]

ah well, it'll be a good 'before and after' if you decide to mod the new motor.

[frd906]

i will be in the future but for now i will just concenrate on doing my air intake and sorting out my exhuast properly, once thats done i will put the old head in for some recoing etc, then i decide on a cam, not to sure yet my self becuase im off my p plates in december.

Not even two weeks to go now
What time does everyone finish work?
If anyone wants to come out with me, Ill go out around 3pm-3:30pm, as I have the trailer, and have to change tyres yadda yadda yadda.
As there is a few new people going, if anyone wants a rundown at the track, Im hapy to do it, as there is a few things to know (and some very suprising ones) that will help you immensley.

[broken_suave]

Yeah I'll be comming along for a run. Give the car a little bit of a shakeup.. I probably wont leave home till about 4 though, and Im not sure how long it'll take me to get to Willowbank. Depends how much traffic I can dodge, but it may take me a while. Either way I wont be there as early as you guys. I finnish work at 2:30, gotta drive back to Wynnum from Victoria Point, then head all the way down to Willowbank.. lots of fuel on that day :P

Is matt coming? better be crack head loved my car. Should tell them to bring the laptops to retune if need be. Make some adjustments

[Cam]

Meet up with Josh and I can meet you guys on the highway...

When I told him we were running his comment was "oh, we should make the trip up there" Will see what he says next week..

No more adjustments on my car can be done, it's runnin freaken saweeeet! I still cant believe the torque it has from any rpm! I really need to find some decent semi slicks.... Otherwise the run will be pointless!

[The Monty]

So whos still up fro racing, as I know a couple are out?
