Looks like you should have no problem beating my time in the G8 with those new DR's

Good luck when you eventually go but I won't be back running the cars until I get the new mods on them.

Well I hope so, I just don't want to break the driveshaft leaving too hard like mike because I don't have a driveshaft loop. The weather looks good Sunday with the high in the mid 40's so they should open up.

your car might not have enough clutch to eat the driveshaft.........might just burn the clutch up.

hmm....very true. I just don't want to break anything, but the clutch is probably the weakest link now so hopefully I won't have too much to worry about

Still running the 10 bolt? If so, it's a toss up.

Yea, I've got the 10 bolt. I"d rather have that blow up first before the clutch/driveshaft/u-joints, etc. because I have a spare one laying in my garage that I picked up as a spare just in case.

I'm going the first chance I get even though I know better not to. Opening days are always crappy with no traction. I'm itching to go though lol.

just let me get a run in before you that way if you oil down the track. I'll be there in my Black Z28. Can't miss my car, It's an SS clone and I have a magnaflow and umi sticker on the hatch.
