only thing I've heard is something about a 5/6spd burnout competition in the side parking lot

I may have to withdraw my entry into the competition. I only seem to be able to smoke the clutch. Unless that counts for bonus points.

If someone let's me borrow their nitrous setup, I'll do one in a 4.44 auto.

But only if we can do an engine swap(and maybe tranny too) in the parking lot when I'm done. I'm sure we'll have to.

I dont have a nitous setup for you to barrow. I only have the Stage III Supercharger. I've gotten pretty good a removing and reinstalling it. Shouldnt take more than a couple hours. But I dont have an engine for you. I do have a couple of trannies. 1 broke 92 AWD auto, 1 5-speed FWD, and I can ask Tom if he'd bring the broke FWD auto. Between the 3 we might be able to get one working. The FWD probubly only needs new spiter gears in the front diff. We might be able to take them out of one of the other 2. We could have a tranny rebuild tech session, too.

As far as I know there really arent any plans. It's a show up and socialize kind of thing. Those of us that have planned the meet in the past have gotten pretty busy with life lately and havent been able to contribute the time we used to. It should still be fun though. Afterall, I'll be there

That'll work We'll see how long my rod bearings can hold at 11 PSI. I think my tranny would survive, But the motor wouldn't. I'm still trying to have it fixed by Reading, So have the bolts loosened up and ready to go on that supercharger if I do.

I agree it'd be still fun though to meet up with svxers.

Really no plans at all for saturday? Tech sessions, yes? But not even driving thru the beautiful country back road looking at some nice scenic views? That'll be even fun to have that ... and to watch on the video clips later.

I got the new crank pulley on now. The boost is back down to reasonable levels.

The local SCCA region has an autocross scheduled for Sunday in York. York is less than an hour west of Mo-town.

For details and registration go to www.myautoevents.com.
Me and Ben will be running the racer.

Dave,
Still running in FP?

Question for the PA SVX crew -- is the parking lot at the hotel large enough to lay out a "g-circle"?? There are enough G-Techs floating around the East Coast that we should be able to actually measure lateral g's

-Bill
p.s. I do plan on running at York....easier than hauling a** back down to FedEX (yep, the WDCA's April event at FedEx is the same day )

Yep, we're in FP. Since there are so few "regular's" that run in Prepared, we're gonna see if they want to combine CP (2 entries), EP (1), and FP (us)???

I'm heading to Mo-town today to see my sister, I'll get some lot dimensions....

hmmmmm, wonder if I'd be in FP? Where would a supercharged, 6-speed SVX with springs, exhaust and intake be at?
