Recommended Posts

After the team thrashed for 16 hours straight, a few clicks of the translator by the "Guru" and she fired right up for the first time last Tuesday. Dyno-then down to Florida Wednesday. This car is down right nuts, clean, built like a tank, and the Westside Hooligans' best chance at a Overall Shootout winner yet.

 

Good shit work by everyone. Colt domination back in FULL EFFECT.

 

Cliff notes-

 

89 Colt GT- $2010 documented budget. (For the 2010 GRM Shootout)

 

Full Tig'd Cage

 

AWD

 

Stock Motor+unkown cheap cams (speced to about a 272)

 

2G Trans/used 2600 w street disc

 

880cc/Cam2/ISB 20 G

Tuned by the "Guru" as I've been dubbed.

 

Made 455whp on a Mustang Dyno with a conservative "Florida Spec" tune at RIGHT NOW. 30psi on the street around 3700 in 3rd.

 

Matt doesn't get on here a ton and wanted me to post some pics. Got some videos of the dyno runs too so enjoy...

And the update.

 

Car did great in the auto-x, 4th only to cars that were wide as aids auto x queens, but we got DICKED in the concourse (car show) aspect. I drove it to a 10.82 my second and last pass, first 10 second 4 banger pass at the event, ever. Got a trophy. This was with a badly slipping clutch. It was 100% toast 2 passes later.

 

Car is a BLAST-and I am 100% confident it will go 10.4's with JUST a clutch, as the tune was conservative. Great time, but I all upset as I feel we should have been in first place overall. Oh well.

 

Another note-we have been invited to VIR for the Ultimate track car shootout. I think we are going to piss of a LOT of people down there. Also, we were the highest placing team in the history of the GRM shootout to NOT win overall (2nd in drag, 4th in autocross)

Yes, but Westside has not done the same car since 05. Considering the outsource, I told them we HAVE to bring it back, if for no other reason but to with the drag.

 

I think just a different clutch disc, and some clear coat, and we murder the competition even if we still get hosed in concourse.
