Why don't you come out into the open Mr. NASA scientist!

Our cars should actually be a pretty even match, btw...

-Chike

Even match??
Let's see....Chike = fresher engine, lighter car, high flow exhaust, high flow intake, 4:11 almost brand new trans
Bill = old, old engine, really heavy car, barely breathing exhaust, intake (okay, so the car breathes well....), 3:55 old, old stock trans
I think you're going to have to spot me a second or two!

Coming from you Bill, that's a great compliment. However, with all the things you're doing to your 'stock' car, I'm sure our times next season will be within 0.1-0.2 seconds of each other.

Chike,
Ultimately, I think the trans gears are going to be the big difference. Keep up the good work with your car, you're definitely going about it the right way - IMHO.

Well Bill, you do have the hardware to switch to some shorter gears!

That's awesome. Those Hoosiers are going to stick like glue at the track...

Found out today that Myxalplyx may be able to make it. He'll either come in one of his XT's or his NO2 power Impreza OBS...

I don't think I'd ever want to rally my SVX due to the low ground clearance of our cars. However, if I had a beater 5spd awd Impreza RS, I'd be game!!!

I might be able to make it out to the second test and tune you speak of. If anyone else is gonna go. probobly gonna need a place to shack up though.(any takers?) I wouldn't mind running the old girl. I should have my exhaust done by then and have some spare cash to fling around like monkie's with their own poop . Let me know if you will be going then?

Tom
