[Limited02]

I'm going to chance it and hope next Saturday works. May be the last chance we get until Spring so anyone that wants to come run/watch, please come out!

I also need witnesses when I smoke Tek's and Yellowford's Mustangs

Well if he spins through first, bogs in second and misses third, I'll have a chance

Yellowford- Are you going to run your Stang? If so, spend a little time this week getting it prepped. I'd clear out the trunk, remove the spare and possibly the back seat if it's not much work. If you need a hand, I'll come over and help.

I have changed my plugs, oil, rear diff fluid, cleaned the MAF sensor, took out 2nd/3rd row seat and have an 1/8 tank of gas. The one thing that's pissing me off is the fuel filter. I've tried changing it yesterday and bough 3 different fuel line disconnects with no success. ******* just doesn't want to come off(I have changed it in the past). Since I have more time now, I might pull the FR driveshaft/swaybar and put the efan back in and reattempt a 3rd time to get the fuel filter changed.

So who plan on running/coming out?

-Me
-Tekman
-Yellowford

The forecast is showing a high between 60-65 depending on which one you're looking at. Either way it's looking to be much better this weekend . Can't wait, I love that atmosphere out there. high 50's and partly cloudy makes for ideal conditions for racing!

 

[Limited02]

It's also showing a chance of rain Plus, my bro-in-law asked me to come play golf which I had to painfully decline(I suck anyway). I'd much rather it be on the lower 50's upper 40's, but it is what it is.

 

[yellowford]

I see nothing about any stinkin rain for Saturday.

Pulling everything out of my car seems like a lot of work for something that is still going to be slow, but it might get done.

 

[Limited02]

Well Genius, we are not racing in Gardner now are we?

Edit- My weatherbug says rain on Sat for both Gardner and KSMO. But Yahoo weather says otherwise? I guess we'll wait and see, plus if it's going to be low-60's, I won't be happy. Weatherbug calls for low 50's

Close enough:

 

[yellowford]

Looks like I will be backing out from racing, don't want to break anything on the mustang as it looks like its going up for sale pretty soon.

 

[Limited02]

I understand. I worry about breaking mine too and if I do, not good! Are you coming out to watch?

You've seen your runs before, my brother took a couple when we were at heartland park. Looks like you guys had a good time, sucks I couldn't make it.

Now that you mention it

Next time I'll try to give a further notice about meeting up so you and whoever else can make it out. Something else Eric and I talked about was trying a road course at some point. I need to get mine lowered before I attempt to make a highspeed turn, but I think it would be a fun change.

It was a great time. And That Limited definitely would have toasted my 5.0. I was only slightly disappointed I didn't achieve my targeted goal of 12.9. I felt I should have. I definitely got the power to do it. Last time I ran with the GT before the NITTO's , Cams, JLT Intake I ran a 13.2. That was also my best this time around. It may be time for Suspension mods to plant that axle down, DR's, gears.
