Anyone is welcome to lemme drive their manual. I'm not afraid of breaking someone else's car driving it the way it's meant to be, including yours
-
Single-tip '98 WS6 exhaust, mild cam, but a whole 'lotta suspension.

Then I don't think it's the tranny mount. Otherwise it'd feel like something's trying to come through your floorboard when you nail it. Sounds like maybe a lower control arm bushing.
-
I've been beating on it a little more regularly the last month or so now that I know I have another drivetrain going into it shortly. I do wanna keep this one intact, as the engine and rear are being transplanted into my '98 V6 Firebird for plans to run road racing/auto-x with it behind a T-56. I've gotten a decent list of kills lately, but I think that'll end with Sam. For now

It takes like 45 minutes with a jack and some hand tools. Bring it over and we can do it here.

He doesn't work there anymore. Derek also takes off with people's fleet vehicle books and forgets about it
-
Center of the cross-member around where the driveshaft slips into the tailshaft of the tranny. It's held in by a blt through the center vertically.

I spoke to the shop today and it looks like next weekend will be my last hurrah before the car goes bye-bye for awhile. It also looks like I have to shit myself some 96lb injectors and a driver-converter box. Yay for being over-budget. Sam, no money race. But same spot, next weekend (work schedule and weather dependant), 40-140 for kicks? My 12.5psi versus your 150 shot I have to get Derek to mount my old BFGs back on my Pro-Stars, these Pole Positions aren't cutting it.

All passenger's riding in vehicles racing against mine must be supplied earmuffs. Thanks for the run, Hal. I almost ate that wall, then your car, though. 60-90mph sliding is a PITA, but all part of the adrenaline rush, and I feel sorry for Ashley's ears We need to do more cruises, like old school CR. It was great not having the dumbasses this time ruining things.

That was my anger post, you get free pass to Norwalk anyways so I can drag you down the 1320' anyways Of course you're gonna spin when you're running on a belt instead of rubber Did you guys even hit 140 there? Again, that was my first time even knowing that spot existed, but the braking area does kick some ass.
-
Yeah, the stupid rent-a-cop hats they wore made it that much worse.

I owe Sam entry to Norwalk. I thought Ray was gonna run slightly bigger jets, but oh well, I'm uninformed Or, Sam ran bigger-than-usual Nice race guys, it was very good :grin2:

http://crfallnorwalk.eventbrite.com/ Everyone should have gotten an email for the event with all details and registration information. Yes, it did go up $5 over previous years due to the non-participation of the summer raffle and how much CR spent towards the spring '07 Norwalk event (including lunch and supplies). Remember, please include your CR name and year/make/model of vehicle when you register, and name(s) of specator(s) when they register. Lemme know if you have questions. Copy/paste from the event: Register for the Fall Norwalk Track Day held by CR. Please list your CR username, if applicable, or username and forum if registering via another site. Date: Friday, September 28th, 2007 Rain Date: Monday, October 1st, 2007 Location: Summit Racing Motorsports Park, Norwalk, Ohio Time: 9am to 3pm, gates open at 8am Cost: $40. Fee is non-refundable unless both days are canceled due to inclement weather. This will be held similar to the spring event this year. See below, copied from the first event: The track will be two lanes, prepped to the 330' mark, with CR doing the staffing of the water box and staging lanes. Norwalk will staff everything else (tree, shack, tower) Well need either volunteers for 1/2 hour shifts, or will assign people day-of so everyone gets to race. Norwalk will provide EMT services. The fuel station will not be open all day, per se, but someone from Norwalk will be over there with notice for group fills. We plan on having someone there around 9:30am and 1pm for fuel purchase. Tech is from 8-10am in the staging lanes, and all registrants will be required to sign a waiver not holding CR responsible for liability. We're looking for no leaks, nothing falling off, etc. We ask that you wear long pants and a shift with sleeves, t-shirts are fine. A helmet is also advisable, as long as it's Snell approved, if you plan on running 11s or quicker. All vehicles will be marked as such for record-keeping and verification reasons after you're teched in. There may be prizes handed out thanks to our CR Sponsors. These will be done on a record basis, I.E, quickest E.T for cars, for bikes, best MPH for either, etc. This is dependant on people sticking around for the post-event meeting. The event is maxed out at 90 vehicles, and CR is trying to absorb some of the cost to provide cheaper entry fees for its members. Unfortunately, the raffle hasn't quite worked out and from shelling out a decent amount for our spring Norwalk, we have to charge a bit extra for general registration for the fall ($5 over last year). Lastly, if you break and it requires a track clean-up, you have to pay for it. If you're a Senior Member and didn't get in for the SM registration, PM me. This applies to Senior Members only.

We got it covered. We had a talk with the manager before one of us got thrown in prison for jacking this "parking lot guard" with the dolly, and everything worked out. Growing pains, nothing more. We're still working on t-shirts, which should be good in the coming weeks, including a pink one for Hal
-
I drove my car in the rain last night you pussies, so did Ray and Amy:p Hal, that's why I was chewing those Tums like mad. You need anything? Ashley ain't doing you no good
-
I brought CR up when Chris and Ben were still pissing in their beds at night. It didn't require anything but simple coding that I force-learned myself on. Before them, we had Kyle Bacon, he's to thank for a lot of what's present. Then you can thank them after I grew up and went electro-mechanical and they went nerd
-
I'm gonna hit Staples tomorrow before we go out. Seriously. And change your name to something else

Should motorcyclists be required to wear helmets??

Who cares. If people wanna have their leftover brains scraped up with a spatula, let them. -
She was fondling it last week after I took it outta the box :grin2:
-
She likes the big head unit, too

Four years, 50+ passes on 1.6x 60' and 500+rwhp later on a beefed up 10-bolt

Hal and I have poster-sized post-it notes.
-
2.73; 3.08; 3.23; 3.42; 3.73; 4.10; 4.56 There's our options for stock rear ends (7.5" 10-bolt).
-
You Mustang retards don't even bother responding with your five-speeds. "Go 3.73, blah blah blah, yadda, yadda, yadda." Like going from factory 3.42s to aftermarket 3.73s would help a whole helluva lot 4.10s for the T-56-equipped F-Body. Moving to tech only because you don't know any better, Leilani. Freebie. Eric, they don't make 3.90s for our cars.
