We def need to have a Go Pro on hand. I saw one when i was at sports authority the other day and they have a couple of them. I was going to buy one but I figure i would wait until the weather breaks when its time to go racing Shootout is going to be crazy this year! I cant wait! You plan on going there Thursday afternoon/Evening right? Thats when were all going.
Yup i will be there, Ill be heading out from mass with a certain group of friends for the weekend. My evo will be out there hopefully in 1 piece with a motor that is still holding. lol But ill be there thursday through sunday i believe.

Yea Im thinking about staying till monday this year because were going to be down there a day early. Since i have off on Monday i hate spending my day off driving 6 hours so thats the only reason haha. Its about a 6hr drive for us. Will see, i always book the hotel room for Sunday night just in case

UPDATE!!!!

Well i got the last piece to the puzzle today. 6766 . Now the car is ready to come together. Trans will be out soon for rebuild with the 4.11 gearing then the car will be turned over. Turbo came out awesome. I went with the polished cover to match the rest of the Turbo kit parts. Cant wait. Here is a quick pic of the Turbo. Stay tuned for more updates!

It was around $600 bucks to get it converted to the 6766. I got the Compressor cover polished also so that adds a little bit to the price. Thank you I hope to run 8s first time or second time out in April! Thank you for your service and when you get back, get that 8 sec slip!
