So is anything going on this weekend?

1. Do we need tech inspections before TWS. ;-)
2. Will some of us even have a Cobra after this week?
3. Can Coleman break into the 13s with the KB at Ennis?

3. ha ha ... i ran a few 13.2s :p

actually, i'm trying to go to ennis tomorrow after work.
we'll see if i can *break* into the 13s then... maybe i should start in 2nd, 3rd, or 5th...

i hope i don't break anything ...

a few of my fellow workers are heading down there with a Z06, mach1, lightning, & my traction-challenged cobra...

I'd like to go to Ennis tomorrow night but i have this wisdom tooth that's killing me. My jaw and everything is infected :bash: Besides i'd like to switch back to my stock wheels/tires if i was going to the track and i dont have a jack here at my aprartment were my tires and everything is. My money is on Coleman though..i think he's going to get it together and start whipping ass. :burnout:

yeah thanks for the offer...i might show up anyway. It just depends on how i feel i guess.

I've been to the dentist and i'm on anitbiotics (sp) to get the infection gone so i can then see the oral surgen to get the wisdom tooth pulled. Right now i can barely open my mouth. But if the medicine starts kicking in and i'm feeling better i'll be out there.

When are you all heading down to Ennis Coleman, I figure on just spectating this time, need to stay in one piece for the TWS track event next weekend.

1. We should all pass if there are no leaking fluids and the helments are in order.

2. My IRS has a popping sound that resembles firecrackers going off in the trunk. Found it, weld in the spare wheel well was cracked and causing the jack/tire to bump up and down.

3. I was thinking a 3.04 60' but he comes through with a 12.1@121. :lol1:
Looking at the weather and good track prep I think he does 11s. :thumbsup:

I am selling the car. Does anyone want to swap some stock parts/cash for upgrades? Upper/lower pulley, chip, coil-overs, brakes, t/b, x-pipe, etc.....

Bingo13, no! ... not another one ... :nono:

Running an Ennis tonight was a *blast*!!!!
Gates opened @ 6pm. I got there @ 6:45!
There were two cars in front of me... that's it two!
@ 7pm they let us go ... i bet i made about 15 runs hot-lapping until *I* decided to call it quits and just chat with fellow workers that finally showed up.

My best runs were 12.584 @ 114.53 & 12.618 @ 115. :beer:
Blew away a co-workers Z06 (13.4 @ 108)

my 60' times are getting better but i still have a lot of room for improvement: 2.121 & 2.123 on the above two runs.

but now my clutch is making a horrible noise when depressed *all* the way down to the floor. i am obviously not shifting correctly because my clutch engages half-way off the floor but i heard the noise during all my shifts down the track :bash:

Congrats on the numbers coleman :beer:

And i'm sorry to hear your selling your car Gary. It seamed like you were enjoying it and talking about getting the kenne bell and everything :shrug:

I know alittle bit of your mods but if you could make up a list i'm sure i could find something on it that i'd like to buy.
