I'm going the 16th for sure if you're down to go then to? An I have 780cc injectors I might sell unless I replace my 650cc with them. Would you be interested in 780's?

It al depends on the weather... I just checked and Friday is going to be the coldest day this week. High of 58, low of 35, will probably be low 40's at race time. I know its a little far out but as of know they are calling for almost 80* next Friday.

Anyone know where else i can get some powdercoating done besides at El Paso Powdercoating. I called for a quote to paint my VC they wanted to charge me 120 plus the price of the paint since they do not have it in stock. That seems a little expensive to me.

Powder Coating

DC Powdercoating is a sponsor on Southwest Drags. I've never used them, but here is a link to some of their work: http://www.southwestdrags.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=63. Contact is 857-3204.

Also just to let everyone know, the drag strip is going to be open tomorrow (SUNDAY) from 5-10pm with one lane fully prepped. The weather has been bad the past two Fridays, but they are calling for sun and low 70's tomorrow. I'm going to try to go assuming my car is still running good after I abuse it all morning at AutoX.

ASAP I have a superafc for tuning and data logger that I need to put the software let me know about the injector.

There is a good chance that I will be going again to try to get my 60' down and finally break into the 12's. I only ran a best 60' of 2.2 on Sunday and ran a best of 13.10 @ 112. Oh yeah, here is one of my vids from the drag strip on Sunday:

Nice! Did you end up winning that race? Also, are your mods up to date on your profile? If so those are some nice times on your 14b. Hopefully i can get my talon in the 13's. It ran a best of 15.1 being pretty much stock. Hopefully you do come out it will be fun for sure.

Yes, the checkered line is the finish line, you can see it clearly here:

You must be logged in to view this image or video.

Yes, my profile is up to date and I am still running a 14b. I've been quite impressed with the 14b, especially for AutoX. Low 15's aren't too bad for a stock setup. Plus don't forget we are at a high elevation here, almost 3,800' above sea level. With my stock 14b, injectors, intercooler, ECU, and street tires I was running mid to high 14's here in El Paso and low 14's in San Antonio.

As of right now I am planning on going to the drag strip on Friday, I will let you know if anything changes.

At the drag strip I run 225/55/16 Hoosier DOT Drag Radials. Sounds good man!

My car has never been on a dyno and I have no experience with any local dynos. Serg had mentioned a dyno day coming up but I haven't heard anything since. I'm interested as well. Whoever you talk to see if they will do a group discount

Nicely done Nathan!

Thanks Josh! I'm going again on Friday.

 

[avengerKid]
