I just wanted to let everyone know that we just launched our new Message Board late last night. It's still a bit rough around the edges, as the new server is still being "dialed in". Hopefully it will be at 100% within the next day or so.
Please read the sticky in the News and Announcements...
Just curious if anyone else received their new issue yet? I was surprised at how much coverage we all got!
If you don't get RacePages, you need to sign up for it ASAP.

I guess it's okay to post a link to it on this website. If not, I'm sure I'll find out soon enough...eh Larry?
Just thought you all might be interested...
I just spoke to them, and they are going to be open tomorrow. I'm thinking about heading up there to get some 1/4 mile times with the new headers.
Anyone else going?
Also, does anyone know how strict they are on roll cages???
I hate to drive 250 miles and not be able to run. The cage...
After receiving several phone calls and multiple emails asking about the flow ability of our mufflers, we decided to put them to the test.
Rather than testing every known muffler, we simply chose the Dynomax Bullet (straight thru design) mufflers. Since it's been a well known fact in the...
We installed the new axle today (thanks Jim Walls!), and put the car on the dyno. Without any additional tuning, we made 483rwhp / 585rwtq (from our previous 470rwhp/564rwtq without headers) . The headers are 1 3/4" primaries, with 3" collectors.
With a little more fuel in the programming...
I thought I broke the clutch Saturday, but we just got it on the lift and found a broken driver side axle. It's weird, the car wouldn't even attempt to pull itself. It acted just like the clutch was blown.
Thanks.
I'm kinda pressed for time, so I'll be brief for now.
The car is now fitted with the first prototype 1 3/4" primary full length stainless headers. We didn't have time to get it on the dyno yet (just got it running yesterday), but we hurried and went to the local track today anyway...
Nitrous Pete just called me from the track. He installed the QMP 3" Exhaust (in place of the Bassani Cat Back he had at NMRA), and ran a best so far of 11.49 WITHOUT nitrous. At NMRA, he went an 11.72 using nitrous in 3rd and 4th (I think that's accurate).
I know he tested both systems this...
Got to make a couple of runs last night after adding a little more fuel to the Diablo Tuning.
Despite the decent 60ft (1.68), it spins all the way through 1st gear on the ET Streets. 568rwtq is pretty hard to put the ground...
As a refresher, I have the following mods:
L upper
Metco 4#...
It's late and I'm tired, so I'm going to more brief than normal.
We put the lower pulley on yesterday (+4lbs) and took it to the track last night with ET Streets. The weather was REDICULOUS. Hot, and nasty humid. Anyway, it went 11.82 @ 116.28. It 60ft'd a 1.68. Long story short, mph was low...
First of all, I'm not trying to sell anything with this thread. I've received NUMEROUS emails from many of you asking me about the 3" exhaust. So here's the good, bad and the ugly:
I ran my car 2 weeks ago at Beech Bend. At that time it had a L pulley, K&N cone filter, Diablo Chip, and was...
I'm just curious what's the most anyone has dynoed so far with just a Lightning pulley and K&N?
Also, if you have 1/4 miles times to go along with your dyno numbers, please post them too. I'd like to get an idea of what it takes at a minimum to run 11's.
Thanks in advance.
