DSM'ers in Northeast Wisconsin

[devlish]

sorry i missed the meet on Fri. I was at the eve of destruction in kaukauna. I should hopefully be in point this weekend though if anyone will be meeting again. and I will definitely try to make it WIR on Oct. 7th for the real street drags and our dsm meet.

Nice, i was at Eve of Devastation at Golden Sands Speedway friday night... that was great!

this weekend in Point... Downtown shopko mall parking lot is usually the best place to see people, sometime after 10:30ish.

so who's all going to be at the suedo "meet" at WIR on the 7th? i'm going to try to make it. one way or another...

Is there a dsm meet at WIR??? I'll only go if there is one(i hate traveling).

damnit, i hate getting stomped on by you other DSMers... this FWD crap has got to go soon!

I am going to try to make it to WIR on the 7th. Probably wont be able to race unless my new ACT 2600 clutch comes in time and i have a chance to install it. What time does it start?

 

[Pro3racer]

Yea, i will probably only do one run, my clutch isn't to good anymore either, and i need to make it home from there...We could do a big convoy from point there...i'll bring the cd..........CONVOY!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[DSMcamaro]

What time does it start?

racing starts at 5, gates open at 4. I always try to get there by 4.

 

[talonTSIDriver]

Cool. Yeah if we all wanna meet in Point (for the people that live near point) and then drive together there. I never been there so that would be cool to just fallow someone that knows where they are going.

 

[DSMcamaro]

RSD in kaukauna this fri. (weather permitting) I'll be leaving from shawano instead of point because i gotta go home and change my oil, hook up my oil pressure gauge and gut my car before i go to the track. anyone else going?

 

[talonTSIDriver]

I dont think I am going to go. I wanted to see FRANK in his 700HP+ Talon but i guess he is not racin. If i can get off of work or something i may go just for something to do.

 

[Pro3racer]

I'm not going...no money...no time....no ambition. Next year...

 

[Bad93ex]

I would go but the Talon is down right now like a true DSM plus I have to work.

Anyone know anybody that would be willing to do a motor swap or motor build for me? Motor is seized so looking at spending roughly $3k.

 

[talonTSIDriver]

$3k for a motor swap/rebuild? If I had time I would do that for ya. If you did it yourself, you can do a complete rebuild for around $500. You can get a complete rebuild kit from SBR for $500, comes with new pistons, bearings, all gaskets, EVERYTHING.

Bad93ex: check your PM regarding the motor work you need done


as for RSD this friday... i plan to go. not going to take the Laser or GLH, just watch. no time to go over the cars this week to get either of them ready. who else is planning to go?

 

[talonTSIDriver]

I am still thinking of going if i can just to watch. I also have no time to get the car ready as I have to install a new clutch yet. Car is driveable but in no way will it take a launch. And for my cobra, I am not wasting any time racing that thing without slicks.

Who is all going from this area?

 

[Bad93ex]

I was actually thinking of going with an AMS engine but that is a little spendy. I have literaly no time to do such a rebuild on my own but would be willing to pay someone to do it for me.

 

[DSMcamaro]

c'mon guys. i still have the stock clutch(thats starting to go) in my car and i have couplers blowing off every other day and i'm still gonna race(get good tbolt clamps tomorrow ). guess i'll be the only one.

And for my cobra, I am not wasting any time racing that thing without slicks.

you should run anyways, your trap speed should give you a good idea of what you e/t would be on slicks. My Camaro ran a 13.5 on street tires and a 12.6 on slicks at about 107 mph.

 

[Bad93ex]

Anyone know anybody else who is willing to work on DSMs?

Need a motor swap or rebuild.
