is anyone there? any updates?

[Tony@vargasturbotech]

No ST cars, I guess they are all coming tomorrow or something. Terry had a problem with his motor on one of his last runs, he will figure out what it is I am sure. Wedge was running good, was getting a lot of smoke from his turbos. I got to meet David one of my stage 3 intro buyers and I let the owner of the stage 3 car give him a ride even in its detuned state he was still impressed. Lots of cool cars and nice people, all in all a fun day, we left super early. Thats about all I got.

Haha, well it was not registered so it would not have been allowed on the track, he took him out on the road leading to the airstrip. No videos... Sorry, I know not what the answer you were hoping for...

That's ok. Just happy with all the progress made so far. Any ideas when we will see some higher octane stg3 dynos?

Well Jake from PTF and Josh from Cobb are flying out here on Thursday night to tune all day Friday and if need be on Saturday. We will see how much we get done. I will keep everyone posted

updates?

[OpenFlash]

Update from the track:

3 customers out here today. Wedge is running his FBO stock turbo flexfuel car today. Wedge won 1st place in the tuner shootout yesterday in his Flexfuel/Procede/FBO car. He is running again today. Tmo335 and CaptainInsano are running their VFF single turbo cars and having good fun. Sunday is definitely the day to run. Many 1000+HP cars out here today. More results/videos later.

Cheers,
Shiv

Sounds good.

I'll post up videos of Sikh335s 60-130 testing tomorrow. This is where the transmission issue reared its ugly head. Out of 10 runs, it popped out of gear twice. Not bad but we didn't want to risk causing any clutch pack damage by running it at the track. 517 is going to make some changes to hold more power. The car is running 25psi and is faast. Every bit as quick (or quicker) than CaptainInsano's single turbo which is running 163mph trap speeds today at Shiftsector. That's ~10mph faster than the upgraded twins and 15mph faster than Wedges flexfuel stock turbo monster what won the Tuner Shootout yesterday.

That high trap qualified him to compete in the Bimmerpost shootout along with the really big dogs. I'll keep u guys posted

Our shop gtr ran 204mph in the 1/2 mile with a passenger.

That's absurd. We were watching it run today... Crazy! I think we will be completing with that car in the final shootout. It's not going to be pretty for us lol

[ETS Michael]

It makes pretty good power.



It's full weight with GTX35R's. We have a sweet drag car in the works, this car was just finished up on Thursday.

Update: we lost to the 1000hp e46 m3. But not by as much as expected. Trap speed went up to 163.6 which was a nice surprise given the warm ambient temps. All in all, it was a great event and it was fun to meet everyone! I'll start a new thread later with pics, datalogs and other stuff

Awesome Shiv, Can't wait to see.

Congrats everyone. Sorry I missed the show.

Did Capt.Insano have No-Lift shift enabled on his runs?

If not, how much faster would he have trapped? (Any chance against that e46?)

[skinrock]

Very fun day, great weather and great cars. Was awesome to see the 163.6 traps. I tried taking videos with my DSLR, but I will need to stabilize them, so it will take some time. No guarantees, and I don't know what all races I captured

My car doesn't have no lift shift.
