^^ Hate to burst your bubble, but I'm 99% sure they're holding it in the parking lot in the infield...

I decided to go in the beginner class, I don't want to break my FD. I registered as number 620, but we will see when I get there if someone else already has it. I'm getting my car tuned this week hopefully. I also got a garage spot.

We will see how I do, If I feel that the beginner class is boring then I will ask them to move up.. I have some experience .

On another note, my FD was tuned today and is very close to completion for MazFest.

Be sure to watch the video at 1080p quality, it's much better than 320

Hey Jesse, car is looking great man, it's come a long way since I've seen that start up vid of the car being pulled out of the wrecking yard.

HP numbers look great but by comparison, tq seems a little bit low... are you losing some tq in the middle of the RPM range? With that big of a difference between tq and hp, you must be making more tq up top than down low/in the middle... you can get the dynojet run files from Nelson and you can read the files with the dynojet winpep software (I have it if you want it, should be able to get it for free from the dynojet website)... if you get a hold of him, ask him for the run files. It's way better to have those than a paper graph that you can't digitally lay over other data.

In other news, I bailed out of the event.. I recently incurred some body damage to my car and money is a little tight since I moved and just blew a few $k on a new setup. I will still be there for ride alongs, etc. Look forward to seeing you guys there.

Yeah, the car has come a long way. The torque seem alittle low, but its flat all the way up to 8000rpms. It pretty much pulls forever..lol. Alot of other cars drop in torque in top end. I will ask him to email me the files or i can just pick them up when i take Alex's car up to get tuned next week.

Sorry to hear about your FD, that sucks. What happened to it? What kind of setup?..lol.
