Well, it looks like we have ourselves some unfinished business.

Tom, Mike: Gen 1 battle!

Eric: The exit lane is sort of turny.

Rav: 1/4 tank of 91, no back seat...

Chuck: If you have time, bring the freak.

Joe: Nice interior:)

Me: I'm gonna cheat.

What say all? I'm thinking one of the next 3 weekends depending on the race schedule.

I'm in. Do you guys want to do a test and tune at my place during the day and hit Speedworld that night?

I don't know if I have enough brakes on the 91 minus to slow it down from 140 mph so I better keep my foot out of it, eh?

I'm thinking that wont be an issue.

If you get going too fast, you can always use your cane as an ebrake.

This sounds like a good time. I'll see what I'm doing next weekend and hopefully I'll be able to make it. Maybe even try to talk the wife into coming with.

My daughter has a ballet concert June 3rd at 4pm.....I have to put priority on that fellas. Guess my "caning" will have to wait. Then again by the time Tom translates this message and types a reply, it will be the 10th of June. :)

well I should'nt throw stones at old people as I am listening to a local station in flagstaff playing all 80's.

We have like 6 radio stations that come in on the entire dial...pretty sad.

Anyhow one station is running all 80's for the whole weekend. I'm getting into it when the DJ says call in your favorite request. I haven't called a radio station in 20 years..probably since High School

Me: "Can ya play me some Falco "Rock Me Amadeus?"

DJ: "Sure, I can dig it up for ya"

Yea like its in a super secret archive or something (might be, simply because I haven't heard this song since it came out in 1984).

60 seconds later it was on the air waves....Sweet.

Man, I bet I'm one of 3 people in the whole city actually listening to this crap.

Nik: can your tires handle a 75 shot of nitrous?

I think I'll bring my near bald Yokahamas and set to about 25psi. If that doesn't work I can just wait till about 4000 rpm to spray in first.

I think the real question may be -can my trans handle a 100 shot with race gas and 7500 rpm shifts with max line pressure? If it can, I may be needing a helmet.

you just make sure it shifts OUT of first, otherwise all the nitrous in the world wont keep me from skunkin' you.

I think what is sad is that you still have a dial! :rofl:

I'm deffintly racing, lets see what this 3.0 has in it.

Aaron, bring the VQ35, we'll see how much better it is than the VQ30 :naughty:

Tom, yes your brakes scare the crap out of me! :omg: Even to the floor doesn't stop it near fast. They do have 2 exits for the turn around though. Usually fast cars use them, but cars with crappy brakes can use them too. :p Go for it! I wanna see you smoke Mikes modded gen 1!

Mike, you better dip into the lowwww 15's man, you should be in the 14's.

Nick, bring the tires on the stock powdercoated rims, and the tires on your new rims. Wow, you went right to a 100 shot! Oh, and call me! :dribble: :evilgrin: :naughty:

Terms of the past not applicable to present generations. I do have a thumb wheel on my mp3 player just to be nostalgic.

I'm not sure about beating old man Dooley now that I know he will probably rear end my a$$ tryin to get that crate slowed down enough to exit the track. Guess its good he has wide rubber and Borbets on his car so he can take that exit turn pretty quick.

I will be ready to give it my best this time. Then again the track will be like 134 degrees.
