    "EDIT"

    Being that my track rental was rained out 3 weeks ago, I'm going to hit Atco for a little T&T on Friday November 8th.


    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


    For those who want/wanted to know, I have a track rental coming up at Atco on Monday, Oct 7th.

    See if 10's will be broken.

    Well being the weather is much cooler then back in May, and with trans upgrades, it should happen.

    Plus I bought an aluminum pipe and a turbo funnel with screen to use to help suck cooler air in.

    If and when I do break 10's I'm ordering my new plate at the track. LOL!!

    Would be 10SEC GP. Take the T out so people stop thinking it's a GTO.

    Wanted to do 1320IN10 but a lot would have no idea what that means or RUNS10's. Gonna keep the original theme going though.

    Thx. This GP has come a long ways so I hope I break 10's. I can't see it not happening once I get a better 60'. If it comes down to it, I'll see about shedding some weight.

    I want to break 10's with practically full weight and interior, stock bottom end and Stg 2 heads and cam

    I put the overlay Grand Prix from the door/trunk lid overlays on the radiator support. So at car shows, people know it's not a GTO. LOL

    I assume you mean slow sho. I don't know what's up with his regal

    I have been. Don't race as much as I used to.

    I would love a 10.86.

    I think if I hit 10's and get my plate, I think I might hang up the racing aspect. Still will never get rid of my GP.

    Last time at the track I was power braking way to much which caused the wheel hop which broke the IS. Now with the new precision TC, I should be able to power brake at 3k and launch good.

    Lots of times, it's all about the 60'. I've pulled a 1.6x when I first went turbo.

    I'm glad it's a rental so I can take my time with the GP. Past few years I've only done track rentals. Back in May with the crazy heat, I got the car from an 11.44 to an 11.06. Then the IS broke. Being cooler out, it should be easier now.
