I have the stock 3:90 FD rear so no final drive change there... changed fuel? Not sure what you mean there. The rules allow the rear carpet and other items to be removed... so I did. I talked to John about my mods. I'm borderline TTU.... I know it. If you don't push the rules to the limit you aren't racing- Smokey Yunick!

Once I add my CF hatch, lexan, adj spoiler I'll be running with you anyway in that class. Main difference is my tires are 3/4 as wide and mine is a street car that I can drive to/from the track.

Once a real race car arrives you and I will both get our asses handed to us. There are a few guys in TTA that are borderline TTU as well (Patrick in his race built Audi S4).

 

O'k Smokey I believe Smokey was DQ'd many times IIRC

 

It's all for fun right....

 

What hub/bearing combo are you running and where is it available?

Mark, didn't you change the diff to a S4

 

not that I remember

 

 

My hubs are stockers machined to accomodate larger bearings, and be serviceable. I think it is a bitch, requiring some modification to replace the stockers. Mark, wouldn't you have been 2nd place in TTU, vs 3rd in TTA last event? Good thing Patrick is down south... Hey whats the nicer of the hotels in Willows? Which one is a right, and a quick right off the freeway by the shell(?) station?

 

Amerihost is by far the nicest, and I think that's the one you are thinking of. It just opened earlier this year, or late last year.

Amerihost (530-934-9700) and Best Western (530-934-4603) are on the road your talking about. I can't remember which one is on what side of the road though..Carl, what day are you driving up?

 

Thanks guys, I am driving up at 4:30am on Saturday. I have to finish my clutch install, and pack my stuff after work, plus get the rug rats packed (7/9yrs old). Carl

 

That car looks really friggen hot, can you post a bigger pic of it I want to use it as my wall paper!

 

Nice pics. Just curious, do you know what camera/settings were used to take the pictures?

Dave

 

EOSIID, settings vary. I have pics just as nice takien wih my 300.00 Minolta Z10.

 

K, thanks.

All cameras can take nice sharp pictures if the focus is on and the lighting conditions are good. It's when things are moving really fast and the light is less than perfect where the cheap cameras quickly become worthless.

 

My 300.00 Z10 worked great at the San Jose Grand Prix with it's burst mode, and bracket focusing, it captured Champ cars going by at 150+. the images looked like ASA200 @8x10 size. I think they have a new Z6, do not know if it is better.

 

All I can say WOW!!! If I just had enough time , and a 4th job .

The car looks great

Mainly time, the car was built for less than 20K car included. I will be taking on a 650rwhp (usable supposedly) purpose built track supra (built by Twinz Turbo) on his home track this sunday at BW, stay tuned...

 

Clarification, The Supra I am racing is a Twins Turbo shop car. Carl
