Rob K.,

What is it with FWCGP guys and LS1 FC's? Now there's 3 of us!

Rob,

That FC sounds insane! I can't wait to see it completed.

there is one surface change on 69/3 leafs and that is going up the ramp heading north on 69 up to lima. rob i want to see how bad you pwn me on those bad boys. just for fun.

Wow Rob, that looks damn nice. Are you going to have this one maintain a street legal status, or is this one full race as well?

it will be full race but i'm gonna keep it a little quieter than my fb so i can rock it on the street too. i'm gonna be taking an NA hood and putting in a reverse vent to make the air flow how i need it to in order to make my v mount setup up function properly. should be pretty interesting...

keeping the FC quieter shouldn't be too hard....


A: the FB was loud as hell
B: the BIG turbo looks like it will take care of ALOT of the muffling for you.

Dual Waste-gate FTW!!!!

Any time but i like to wait another month or so. The leafs and the roads are not the best early in the season. Salt,sand,dirt,grease i could go on but you get the idea


Can I bring my Schwinn?? LOL we race are pit bikes thats a blast

the leaves were fine last night...

tires on both cars are really heat-cycles and need to be replaced..

(i'm bringing the schwinn, maybe the 3-wheel schwinn, maybe alex will help me throw some batteries in the basket and run dual motors, and a 72V system..

you poor ICE guys would be in for it.. until i tried to turn with my 3/4inch contact patch..

lots of us do..

I've done it for years..


on some cars it's actually better than using a real roller, due to the curvature of the wheel-well/fender reletive to the tire/tire-geometry.
