Are you serious?! That's ****** bullshit. What happened?

In slightly more pleasent news (for some..) the track was so-so today.
There weren't many people there all day, so I think JP and Mike got about 15-20 runs in...
It was really hot though, so no record setting for Cobalts.

I think I'll let Pablo talk about his day

Maybe you should move down south of winnipeg in the clean neighborhood, lol, people wouldn't touch your car in fear of getting sued!


What happened to yours??

Yah fun day at the track, got plenty of practice launching and now I'm getting some low 2.3 60' but either the heat or the smaller pulley causing heat seemed to kill my top end...

And of course those SRT-4's walked all over us lol, and a Mazda Speed 3 was getting some good times too.

Heat

In may I ran 14.4 with a 2.65 60' at 102 mph

and today it was 14.6 with a 2.33 60' at 97 mph

unless maybe that very strong wind in may helped me that much... but i'm not sure.

It seemed all the street tire guys were running .3-.5 slower than before, I know it's tough but a set of drag slicks makes such a huge difference+ then they let you run in the groove.

Thanks for the props guys, the car ran strong today trapping almost 99MPH at half track. If anyone has a vid or two of my car and can e-mail it to me, let me know or shoot it over to Pochnio@shaw.ca

Yah I got 4 vids of your car. There are way too big to email but you only work 2 mins away so I could drop them on a disc and drop them off sometime if you want.

I also noticed footprints on the windows where they failed to kick in my windows...managed to get the major dent to look a little better but there are still a few good dents in my door....not sure if i can get them popped or if i need a whole new panel.....

But I'll be back this evening and I'll put it on a disc and PM you, then I can leave it in my mailbox for you to pickup or I can drop it off at your place on my way to work.

boys and girls our tuning problems have been solved!

i contacted josh from over the top performance, who is advertising tunes for the 2.4 and 2.0L, he has been tuning for over 7 years and is one of the first people to have the orginal HPTuners.

i told him our situation, how we have no really really good tuners in winnipeg and the support of EFI live is expensive.

he told me to get all the people interested to send me their info (mods and type of car) and he will get back to me on a price, he said he can ether come up here, we can go there (michigan) or we can ship him our pcm in exhcange for a core pcm till ours is tuned.

so please, if you (as myself) are interested in a tune from a very well known professional, please send me your list of mods and i will relay them back to josh.
