Holy wow, no I didn't notice that! Nice!! I knew you had it in you... Now for the 13's...
I was thinking about putting my autox time in mine - much more impressive than my 1/4 limp.

And Terri wants to know why you didn't go to the show field and say hi...
Posted By: PA 3L SVT_dup1 Re: ZZZZZZZZ - 10/29/02 01:00 AM
I never got to the show field. The early rain got us all screwed up and we were basically waiting in line for the track to re-open. Then we only got 2 trials. By the time I lost in the first round, the show was over and TommySVT was still running so I stuck around for moral support.

I concur with his story.

And what was TOMMY's time in the 1/4 ???

Great E.T. , Jason !!

My best was 15.7, but I let off because I felt the 30 MPH die and I was going faster than my dial in.

Stupid headwinds.

Well , IIRC a 15.7 is what the car is supposed to run in the 1/4 in stock form ... so you're right on track . A 15.7 is what I ran in the 1/4 , stock ... I was OK with that (was wishing I could run faster ) . Haven't run the 1/4 since . My '95 SE (ATX) ran the 1/4 in the mid 16's ... I was happy with that , too !

Man , after THAT reception , it's a wonder I show up at all !!!!!!!! I've just been really busy lately , helping out some friends (yea , I've got a couple ) . I just haven't had the time / energy to turn on the 'puter . Hopefully that'll change . I'm here in spirit anyways .

Yeah, I know. We felt you hovering around. LOL
Might have to do a mod meet soon, got quoted $900 to install struts, springs and a arms. I don't think so.

All I can say about the spring/strut install project is that it was no easy task (and my car only had about 12 thou or so on it when I did it ) . I'm sure stuff really gets stuck on there with a bunch more miles on it . Plus , you're doing the adjustable camber plates too (that might complicate things too ... I don't know for sure) . It took me about 10 hrs. to do mine , all inclusive) . Where did you get your adjustable camber plates from (and how much ?) ??
Posted By: chknhwk_dup1 Re: ZZZZZZZZ - 11/04/02 06:21 AM
I ordered them from CTAMotorsports (BAT) and I think they were $49 or something like that. I forget really - got so much stuff at the same time!

WHOAH!! Steve, too??!! Nice! How ya been?

Well, cars in the shop as of (since it's actually early morning right now) last night. Only doing the struts/springs/a arms/outer tie rods/adjustable castercamber kit. Will do the rear sway bar at a later date when I have the upgraded backing plates.

But I'm still up for a meet!!

PS>Shut up Sal.

That is going to set you back a pretty penny there.

Unfortunately yes, it did. Or will. Whatever. I just couldn't get the time to do it. I suppose I could stay up all day and do it and go to work at night - but I like my sleep too much. Plus it gets hectic at work.
