Fellow SoCalers I'm doing a crappy job keeping SoCal Events updated. My excuses -- Before I 'retired' I had T1 access and now my home access has been crappy lately, and then I run into speed problems and just do not have the time it takes to wait it out and do a good job...

I have the Apten blower mod, and have been running the 2.80 upper pulley. I'm adding the 6 lb lower. I think the 'pre-Apten mod' standard was 2.93 upper with the 6 lb lower. Anyone gone smaller with the 6 lb lower? Comments in general... James

LACR is finally giving us some 11s. Jonas -- 11.72 with the ET Streets. Adam -- 11.94 on his first run of the night (backed up with 11.98) James -- a desperation 11.96 on my last run of the night after a 12.02 and that sinking feeling that LACR was kicking me in the teeth one more...

Testing the water... Anyone interested in either 12/26 -- The last Friday grudge race, or one of the Hangover days 1/2,3 or 4? This would be a couple of last chances to get a '2003' 11 sec run at LACR for all of us wussies that don't have one yet. Sound off... James

Adam has the Piggie in the 11's. An 11.75 followed by an 11.90 Still low MPH 117. Makes me think he did it all with the launch. He said 1.64 60 foot time (!) (since I'm in Florida, he must have launched at 5,500 rpm ha ha ). I conclude, with that speed, we have not gained any...

Somebody posted a good wiring diagram for the battery relo on the 2003 --- I can't find it. Need to kill the alternator... Anyone remember the thread? James (need by tonight...) ************* good responses ********** That's what I like about this forum... JW

The good. The following thread should motivate us to get the hell up to Sac. http://www.svtperformance.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=63974 The bad. Don't know if it means just Wednesday is closing for winter soon, or the whole shebang. JW:rockon:

As we study the mystery of the Piggie (why it has such a slow MPH in the quarter) the two main culprits are 1. the ET Streets 2. No CAI. Somewhere along the line I just stuck a bigass filter on and forgot it to do anything else... Dramatically, on a head to head run, while running a...

Fellow Ford owners, My brochure says 'Payout Both Days and Trophies Awards Both Days' for all the heads-up and Bracket classes. 'Payouts' and 'Trophys' would indicate complete bracket races to me. Both days seems to imply complete bracket races 'both days' (hot damn I love logic!!!)...

Thread use: Thought is to use this thread JUST to point to the real thread, that way this thread stays compact, posts can be deleted after the event.... The 'real thread' will carry the details and the yakkity-yak *** Fontana Speedway Schedules...

Gonna stick the 315 Nitto DRs on the Vert. For a person who will not be driving fast on these tires, is the wheel upgrade necessary? Not looking for optimum, will not be doing anything but putt-putting on these tires. Oh, maybe an exhibition of speed from time to time. Anyone getting...

Knockin' On 11's Door Mama, take this weight off of me I can't take it anymore. It's gettin' fast, too fast for me to see I feel like i'm knockin' on 11's door. Knock, knock, knockin' on 11's door Knock, knock, knockin' on 11's door Knock, knock, knockin' on 11's door Knock...

I've been to two of these. They prepped the hell out of the track for the last one. Good number of cars, 95+% Mustangs (non- Stangs have to run time only.) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sals's Speed Shop's Mustang Dray Day 6 Sunday...

I plan to do something for additional power soon. I really like PModdie's new power, but I want to be sure I give the KB proper consideration. I have been reading the posts, and a KB person from another part of the country has privately raved on the KB after a couple of months of use...
