So what do you think I will break?

[DAS BOOT]

So anyone else been like me and been really avoiding the track?

Thinking about taking the car to the track on friday... I haven't taken it out in like a year... I know its a bad idea but well, you know I miss it too much and want to take it out.

hopefully its not the transmission... and hopefully I get a few solid runs...

Car feels stronger then ever since I gutted the cat, maybe a new best :)

will be running...
-spec 2 clutch
-ghetto tune
-no Cat, open cutout on stock exhaust.
-a homemade intake
-no maf
-belt pulled
-auburn diff
-cheap street tires
-and some suspension stuff.

also plan on doing a pretty decent "tune up" of things... plugs wires, pcv, fuel filter, oil, seafoam

rearend has been whining for about 8 months and like 9,000 miles now :)

lol, I snapped the outputshaft on the tranny last trip to the track and I had cheaper and 10 mm narrower tires.

what year is it? What are you using to tune? going VE SD huh? I like it

Yes, I have been avoiding the track for awhile, but once I go... I'm going all out (I wont care if I do spin a bearing or something)

2000, and I use hptuners...


all I do is very very slightly lean it out blindly. Very slightly, probably doesn't really make a difference. Add timing, cut out all the useless things, smooth things out... nothing drastic, hence a ghetto tune. IF I planned to race this car more I would buy a wideband.

I am not so much worried about spinning a bearing... more just stupid ****.

Last tim I autocrossed, sheered off a torque arm clamshell bolt. Also lost a panhard rod bolt as well.

before that, dragstrip brok the output shaft, before that broke a 10-bolt, before that clutch problems.
