Wow, those are nice numbers for a junk turbo. I guess the new 6266 should put you up in a higher horsepower huh?

NOPE! I doubt it. I have work and wouldn't have enough time to get the car ready. But, if you want you can invite all, or everyone that has the ***** to run, to have a weekend ROTARY VS PISTON, one weekend at bakersfield when they are open.
I will definitely line up with whatever car you guys have!

I would like more power but I'm thinking im at my limits with the stock head but We will see what more she gives me as long as I have a better powerband then I used to I'll be happy.

As far as a battle well we have been waiting and no one steps up. Jay has been the. Most consistent with attending and running events and Jose came out a few times Chris comes out but we never seem to be running the same days either way irwindale is back and we can do all the match races there.
So the ***** in the rotors court to show up and any of us will line it up

After years and years of waiting? We had been in the low 6s 1/8th and 9s in the 1/4 for years and years too but yet again no one stepped up.
We know you ran 8s Rene your car moves but I've only seen you do a 5.5 and a 8.9 ive never seen a vid or a slip of your faster times. And yes we are pumped we are pushing a 2600lb + car on the 26/8.5 tire with a 4banger still on gas and same block with almost 3 years and over 100 passes without a refresh how many motors are refreshed to last that long plus not alky who wouldn't be pumped.

We have come back stronger and faster each time yet we are left to play with others when what we want is for all these rotors we hear about come out from the wood works and play the game.

Drag7. Get it going and come out maybe then we can have some rotors play.

Finally venturing on something new, Drag7. Good luck I can't wait to see what you coming up with. I know your NA for your son is making good time with all the stock and interior.

Hahahaha good get the street car going and you and me can have at it I'm still irs and h pattern full weight.
Rene knows what's up and it's all fun and games I want you guys to come out and stop letting the cars collect dust.
Chris is already getting his stuff together I hope more will follow.
Irwindale it fully up and running. James was there last thurs getting lic passes in so hopefully we can line up soon to with the corolla.

No ballets here just hard work and hustle we all have families and homes and lives to maintain but still have to manage some how. Now let's get to wrenching and racing

That last quote pretty sums up my situation

I read allot of extra drama post now a days, I remember not too long ago when guys would "just go racing" I like a little trash talk once in a while BUT its a little ridiculous in here sometimes.

Im going to be selling all of my extra parts and project cars to begin funding my future build, It will be a rx8. It will be similar to the titan latest street car, 4 link, 10 inch tire, liberty 5 speed and Turbocharged 2 rotor engine! Hope to be out within a year.
