You were there last year? I guess you didn't see your old setup from 449 then /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif Works great /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

I'll be sure to stop by your group and say hi this year. I'll be in my Evo, but saw the VR4s last year and thought it was awesome seeing them there.
Cool, I'm sure you'll see my either cleaning my car or gawking over all the others parked with us.

Got our Hotel booked for the shootout! We'll be at the All American Inn ahain this year! woot!!
Mike, I can't believe you are wasting money on a hotel room again this year.
Redwood, GSTwithPSI and TransparentDSM, glad to hear all of you guys plan on coming this year. I only live a couple hours from the track, so let me know if anyone needs help with anything

Hell, I think I might get a hotel room this year. I camped last year and froze my ass off. I forget my blanket and sleeping bag. I only got a couple hours sleep after finally getting up and and getting in the truck.

i really hope to meet up with redwood and mike, unless he stays south the whole trip, on the drive out there. ill be taking 80 from reno basically. the lady and i are getting a hotel, but we want to stay at the waterpark 15 miles away, plus she really wont want to spend 3 days at car shows.
Craig i might take you up on the help, that is if i do decide to run max effort.

yeah i couldnt convince her to sleep outside in sleeping bags especially since its our time to get away and be free, so yeah we'll just do the hotel like i always do, but this time i wanna come and hang out with you guys there at the track.
Shane,
last year the route i took was going through LA, then Mississippi, and through kentucky and Tenn. i see another route thats a completely different direction though, what did you have in mind exactly and where will you be going through? im always open to take another route if it means being able to drive to the shootout with other Galant VR4's. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I just found out that there will be no race tire class for the auto-x this year. Apparently they didn't like me kicking there ass with fastest time of the day. I need to find the rules for max effort cause I think that's where I'll be. I don't think I'll be that much slower on street tires as the course was too slow to take advantage of them so hopefully I can do well this year.
what is your tire/wheel setup?

My current setup is Rota grid 17x9.5 with hoosier A6 275/35R17 tires. This year I'm looking at 17x9 with 255/40R17 BF Goodrich G force Rivals.

I know I can knock off at least a half second on the quarter mile. Autocross I was cutting .5 .25s off each pass. I just need to start off faster and figure out the course. I'm not sure if I'll be at this shootout, but it should be exciting because I'm sure Leon will make a push to get back on the podium. Tim should cut significant time off his quarter, and if you don't lose much in the autocross with street tires you'd have won this years event. I just hope that guy with the cut up 1g doesn't get any more power or he'll wipe the floor with all of us. I'm hoping that maybe I can get a new wheel setup and tuck a little more tire under my car, 255>245. It would be nice to take those damn max effort evos down a notch.
I have a LOT of room for improvement over last year!
As for cut-up DSM, I find it strange the we have to use street DOT tires, but... cars can be cut-up as much as you want... But it sounds like Dave doesn't want to change that aspect of the rule.
