I bought my '05 Duramax ext. cab short bed (4x4, ally) new. It has ~45K on it now...most of the miles have been towing or being used as a truck. Most of the time it just sits in the driveway. I love it...have a mild PPE tuner, 5" catback exhaust, gauges, cia..pretty much it on it. Checkout dieselplace.com very good duramax info and forums. Has plenty of power for my needs towing my 24' tag race trailer. Thinking of stepping up to a 36' gooseneck next season. I do wish I would have gotten a crew cab to have more room for people when going to races...but I didn't want a longbed. A crew cab long bed may as well only come in one color...yellow...because they are big as a school bus.

Congrats...I see your already updated your "vehicles" list.

How has your C5 A6 been so far?

I had an 03 2.7T years ago and it was a problem child, but I always loved that body style. The 04's got an upgraded torque converter, and slight bump in power.

 

It's been a great daily driver. I bought it from my father's estate with ~74K on it. He was the 3rd owner and only put about 15K on it in 2 1/2 years. I had the timing belt and everything inside the timing cover replaced by a friend who is a Audi dealer tech. Just oil changes and brakes since then with 126K on it now.

If and when I decide to get rid of my '04 A6 2.7T....a S5 is very high in my replacement list. Love the looks of them.

Kilkare is back open.

I maybe up for this...gotta check my work schedule.

How fast are you going threw co2 for your boost controller? A 4# bottle lasted me all last season..and it's still at least half full. Have you checked for leaks in your system...especially in the top half of your wastegate? I had a bad leak in one of my the first time out with the boost controller...went threw a 10oz. bottle in less than 2 passes. I go to a local gas cylinder shop that refills co2 bottles...like for kegs.

I would be up for this. Possibly a few other guys I race with that have 8.5" tire or X275 class cars. Gives me a date to have my junk back together for.

I'm comming for king throwdown since its the only class for street cars with big tires!

 

Did you make it? Didn't see you there. There were only 6 cars in the KTD class. They all decided to split the $5K among them before the first round...so everyone who entered the class went home with ~$800. I should have gotten in the race myself.

I was considering running the 11.50 class with my tow vehicle, but I'd have to turn the boost down to far

 

 

Then again, I have no idea how to get my car to do that either.....but I'll figure something out

 

I've got some extra weight we can put in your trunk...then you can be up in forcefed's weight range.

Jeff do u know what et I should exect to be competitive in kings throwdown?

 

High 8's is normally pretty competitive in the class on a normal TNL race at edgewater. But who knows what is going to show up for a chance at $5K. I have considered running the KTD class. But I don't what to cook my tranny since you don't get much time between passes during eliminations. I need a good 15-20min to turn my car around between passes.

Love mine...108K on it. Runs great. I had the timing belt done at 75K..just brakes and oil changes since.

Do you know what the back spacing is on them? RL on here is looking for a set of 15 x 10's for his 95gt.

Next race is this Saturday 8/11.

Dyno's are hard on tires. Don't dyno your car on tires that you plan on running at the track...it's kills them. I have a old set of worn dr's that I use just for when I put my car on the dyno.

The June race is this Saturday at Kilkare...gates open at 10am...time run around 1ish.

Race is tomorrow.
