Nope, I was planning to rent one from U-haul. I can tow my car up, and pull back whoever breaks if I can drive mine home. (My wife can drive the truck while I drive my white car).

I want to set the date today. I decided that I'm not going to have time to fix my clutch and I'll just go as is so I can stop worrying about it. At least I can try my best and not break into the 11s. The guy from my job does not have his Vette tranny ready either, so he'll be running his very fast red truck instead. So it's official, I'm ready and I want to give everybody a chance to make plans. I will notify the '06 Z06 guys today and try my best to get at least a handful of us up there. So how about Saturday, February 10th 2006?

I am trying to get ready. Got a bigger spring in the Wastegate now, and got fresh (drag radial) meat on the rear wheels. Swapped in a non-leaking oil cooler too.
Just need to get the idler-arm bushing fixed, and maybe tune for a little more boost. Can we move it (the date) a little further back?

Ok, that's no prob at all. If you guys come we can go on what ever day is best for everyone. The next possible dates are:
Friday, Feb. 17 (TT)
and
Friday, Feb. 24 (MM)
Test and Tune is good because you get more runs (less people that MM), and Midnight Madness may be good for people (like me) who have difficulty getting out work early on Fridays. However it's full of ricers. Let me know.

You don't want to miss being in this video of hardcore dirty south rotary power action (or high 15 sec diesel Chevy redlighting on people if I blow the clutch in my 11 sec FD).

Yeah you suck LOL. That sounds great, look forward to seeing you there and the extra footage will surely help. Sorry about your car, that thing is beautiful and I still have the vid of your 13.8 run.
