Whats your 2010 goals?

Thought it would be nice to start a thread on our goals for this coming season. What changes you are making and what times are within reach...

Myself, I will be upgrading the diff, axles adding a 2 step, softer springs and struts. Also bumping the boost a tad if all goes well. I would like to one day see 9's but do not expect to see it this year. So if I can just knock Anthony's spot (low 10's) I will be happy!! I plan to hit 3-4 big track events in the south.

post away....

My goal is a 11 second pass on my all motor 12abp stock chassis on 91 octane. Money is tight this year again so I probably won't be able to get the pport done like I wanted.

Get all the bugs worked out of my car and get a little seat time. Get the chassis certified and also get my license. And if everything goes as planned, maybe 1 seven second pass!

im after a 9.99 or better in my fc, then ill be changing my inlet manifold to the cosmo one i have, then winding up the boost to around 30psi and going back out for a laugh.
Then a switch to methanol for simple sake of ******* off intercoolers and heaps of pipes an **** , and its heaps cheaper to run on

My biggest decision would be whether i change to a 9 inch setup rear or going a driveshaft shop billet irs setup . My heart says stick to the irs as its different, and in my town every thing i have done to my car is different ,.... to the car body choice to the computer to pretty much everything i have done is different, so...... i think irs it is . And i love proving to all the people who along the way said it would never happen

My only other wish is to make it to the second round of racing at my first national open meet this weekend

Well just got my car tuned and that was a big one so I'm happy about that. Now I just gotta address everything else that's been neglected since I started my motor project 4 years ago. Then for a pass down the track. I really don't care what time I get as long as I start getting some seat time I'll be happy

Not sure, haven't dyno'd it yet. I'd figure in the 460-500hp range @ 20psi. This is pump fuel and pre turbo water injection. I'll be pulling my ET streets out of storage soon, can't seem to get traction in boost past 5k rpm.

I don't really have any goals. 2010 is probably going to be a slow year for me.

Body work(going in the ship friday) 4 inch turbo back, 6 point cage, aem with race gas tune(shooting for 550rwhp), all that stuff by the end of april, and run consistant mid 10's(was consistant 10.7-10.8) and get a low 10 sec pass. Also cant forget keeping the a/c charged E85 setup later this year hopefully.

To run a high 8 pass, then switch to meth.

Maybe a new full tube chassis if everything goes to plan.

Get a better turbo than the T88, move to a T6 flange, put a tranny in the car, and get driving lessons from Timemachines.
