Why would I do that? The question of whether or not my car is running now has little to do with whether or not it will be running in September.

I'm skipping it this year. As much as I would love to be there with everyone, but things didn't line up for me. Will probably hit up tracks around LA though.

Nope! The week before is the perfect time to strip the entire car and make big changes

Maybe I'll actually get the windsheild mounted on the exofish before hand, or the boost controller actually wired in but probably not...

I am registered in Group F



I would like to drive down and be a spectator. I have no real feel for feasibility of this at this point. But I will put forth my best mt.net effort.

Maybe just bring down that strangely saught after trunk lid so some part of your car makes an appearance.

Campsite booked. If anyone from this site steals 139XL you will get a lifetime ban, no joke.

Lets do dinner again. Same place as last time?

If so @EO2K can you call and warn them about us?

As a a matter of fact I usually sign up when the car is the furthest apart but manage to finish it mid season but then tear it back apart completely again right before the event.

Only had that one year where that backfired and I had an oil pump hang the relief valve open.

Anyone got a spare bp4w or bp6d they feel like selling me at wrls? Requirements: needs to run. I don't need to install another fucked up engine, that **** gets old real quick. Also, I'd only need the longblock if it'll make it cheaper, I have the intake, exhaust, clutch, etc.

Anyone interested in picking up my C group slot on Sunday?

I overestimated my vacation accrual due to probationary period at new job and after the Lemons Rally last month, I'm realllllly stretching it for availability. Without being able to take Monday off I can drive like, 1 session Sunday morning and then boogie out shortly thereafter. Seems like a waste for one session, and I'd rather sell the slot at a discount to one of you guys who can enjoy it. Or one of your friends. Just LMK.

Just dropping a line about current madness. Decided today was a great day to start my fender flare project and that I 100% need 245wide tires on the car for this event.....

And possibly a few other average decals to get passed out.
