Let me know if you can make it

I skipped the 9.0 index for now, We only had 2 people vote on that class, we might do it another time.

Me, Me, Me. I'm in.

It might be just me and you. Everyone else is too scared.

I have a feeling by the time I pull into Dorchester...it will start raining.

Who's scared?

Im in.

I think more peope will be in, not much traffic on the site this weekend.
Except for Paul, he seemed to have some fun.

Maybe if you have one this coming fall, I might have enough bolt ons to get in the low 8's????

heck yeah, i think mike, jimmy and shawn did too :D

Where were you guys at?

Down in Savannah.

here in savannah, over all had a great weekend.

Dorchester was fairly empty.

If you have a cux2 computer in yours 5 hours to spare, and enough cash to pay for the parts I have laying around I bet we could make it run 7.9x on the cheap. (provided you borrow some slicks)


Parts list I have laying around: 5lb pulley and belt, 1/2" Diablosport line pressure mod valve, CAI ,90mmMAF ,Ngk tr6's, spare blower (perfect for porting 99-00 bolt pattern) ,ported throttle body,ported plennum,EGR delete plate, Tunes to make it all run.

Edit: and if you could find a MAFIA it would even be extremely safe

I don't have a problem with the time, I might have a little problem coming up with the money to pay you right now. The 10k I had laying around to buy the truck was all I had, to many maxed out credit cards right now to even spare a few hundred bucks.

I wouldn't be in a hurry for the small ammount of funds required for my spare parts, after all the only thing I would ask you to even pay for would be the 90mm maf, pulley and belt (all at mexican discount prices).

Your Brother has helped me out enough so it would be the least I could do.

Side note, What you would need to bring: 7qt of trans fluid (Mercon only), 2 bottles of water wetter (one for radiator one for intercooler), 1 F250 4R100 4x4 Transmission pan and filter, 1 170 deg T stat, 2 bottles of GM supercharger oil (I have two but I would need them replaced), 1 can of Gunk engine degreaser (I aint workin on no dirty engine), 1box of 1/8 vacuum end caps, 12" OF 3/8 fuel line, 24" of 1" rubber fuel line, 1 can of CHEM dip carb and parts cleaner (I have a can but it would need to be replaced), sweet talk Chrisheltra out of his K&N elbow, 3 cans of brake cleaner, Beer for me as payment for my labor, bull whip for Shaun (my brother) so we can keep him working productively, 1 3/4" NPT cap (from Lowes) for egr delete, Traction bars (so we can install if you want to run slicks).

In addition if you want to delete the Cats you would need to buy 2 ea 2 1/2 long radius 45's and 2 18'single flare straight pices of 2 1/2 pipe. This will also add time to the project so add more beer.

I like to go fast for cheap so plan on porting everything that aint connected to the crank.

Now that's a recipe for 7's........ If anyone can do it for cheaper than that I'll kiss their ass.....

Get your lips ready.......I got a bottle that has 7's written all over it. :finger:

:joke:

Your way is better. :bigthumb:

[OFF TOPIC]Since when do you mind working on a dirty engine?:mrgreen:

Dave you can have my k&n elbow as long as I get in on the beer aswell:cheers, and I can help and get my hands dirty on your truck.
[/OFF TOPIC]

Cool, I can go and get that credit card that I hide in my sock drawer that has nothing on it, lets go shopping. No ONE tell the wife though, she must not know anything!!!!:hail::hide: I have till tomorrow night to have everything done b/c Wednesday I need to pack the bed full of tools and cables that I have to haul up to Norfolk on Thursday.

8.0
 

Mike I'm in Mitch

Ahh..I never read the whole title. I thought the event was to take place yesterday, so I showed up. Oh well.

I will be in Michigan during this event. Maybe I'll join the next time y'all have brackets.

:wak::hysterical:

Date Changed to give some more time for others to make plans.

Your brother want some mods to get in on this?:mrgreen:

No that's not it. He leaves for Norfolk VA for 2 months tomorrow. He won't be able to race for a while.

I just thought I'd give a little better notice.

Gotcha:bigthumb:

Pushed back another week,

Come on guys you can slow down to 8.0 and join in on the fun. Hell I slowed down to 10.0.

If I can get to the track that day I will run. I just never know if I can make it until the day before. I did get back to the track on Sunday and I don't think 8.0 will be a problem for me. I just won't run on the bottle.


Paul

Count me in if I can get to the track that day !

I'm just like you guys, I won't know until that day if I can make it, and even then I might get called to work while I'm at the track.

:boohoo:You ain't gonna do didly squat at work anyway...........but hold up traffic some damn where

hey now.... at least I know to pull my keys out the truck before I lock the doors :poke:

..and anytime I see that GMC diesel wanting to cross the tracks I'm stopping. :Finger2: ....since I can't outrun you I have to cheat :mrgreen:

Sweet! I can definitely do the 18th.

I'm in............

How are you going to slow down that much, take off the blower belt?

Run his street tune. :hysterical::poke: Sorry, I couldn't resist.

I'm out. Family stuff.

Paul

Can I stage the back tire in this race????????????

As long as no one else objects, I have no problem with it.
