I was told that Norwalk was not doing private rentals anymore

I hope I am wrong though, because I would love to get in on one.

Finding a day when Norwalk isn't crowded is like finding a day when I'm wasn't pissed off at all........

I am up for a track rental. You guys shoot me some PM's and I'll see if I can get us one.

Let me know the day I am sure I can round up atleast one other car, might not be an Evo though. I hope it's in like 2 weeks. Dave, whats the chances of me having the Red and having you retune the car by then. PM me if you want.

btw, how many cars do you want to get, just the more the merrier? Or are we trying to keep it small

The more the cheaper for everyone. We just need a date, to finalize everything.

How many people would we need to make it like $50 or $60 a person. I am sure it would be easy to get people in for that. PM me when you guys get the date worked out.

Well I went to 42 last night with Trent and Chris. Ran a few new bests and my times are slowly improving. My best time was a 11.0000 @ 132.74 and I also ran a new best MPH on the last run of the night with a 11.04 @ 137.8. It was a good night overall getting in 14 passes and learning quite a bit from Trents help. I just need to keep working on my 60s and I need my new suspension so we can get it dialed in and launching more consistent. But the car and myself are diffinately heading in the right direction.

I just want to put a huge thanks out to all the guys at Buschur for building an AMAZING car, and a huge thanks to Trent for helping me become a better driver!

It was on the Meth, not a hole lot of difference. 20 hp. I wish Dave would have been there as Trent was logging it for me and going over it and he said it was a little rich. He said Dive probably would have pulled out 2 clicks of fuel and it would have given me 2-3 mph and about .2 seconds. That might have been enough to give me 10s and w possibly a 140 mph trap.

I should be gettiing my Hood and Trunk on tomorrow. And hopefully next week I can go up and get my new manifold on, re-tuned, and tuned for Q16.

I deffinately need the coilovers to help it launch. It was spinning hard every time. Oh well, Im going to the track again Friday for our schools race and I get to destroy all the idiots that will show up with their parents Mini-vans and trucks. Its always good for a laugh when the diesel trucks guys talk **** because they are the ones who get the most pissed when they get it handed to them.

Another plus last night was I was in the 100 MPH club race and one that and took home the trophy with a 134 mph pass.

Thanks For all the compliments! I cant wait for the shootout!
