I'm down to come watch car is too stock and I'm a terrible driver still readjusting to manual

Stock car is the best car to run!! I wish I had that baseline at PIR before I started upgrading. Everything is slow, because there will always be someone faster. :D

Yeah true, I'm just not confident with my shifting to actually drag yet been driving an automatic for 5 years since my last manual

You should get a brzedit tune from Bobby at PRE. He can turn on launch control and flat foot shifting which might make it easier for you to run it down the quarter and give you more confidence! :D

Hehe... why do I bother posting links? (twice!)

Gates open at 5:30

so what time are you guys dragging your car? Not sure if I want to be there for like 3 hours so I'll show up later when you guys are ready, and temps go down?

Guesses on trap speed for the Darren and Nick Innovate cars?? This should be interesting.

Also, let us know if you intend on making use of launch control and FFS in your brzedit tuned machines..

I'm heading there from my house at about 5:30. Should get to the track around 6.

My subframe is hanging from my car so no go for me tonight. It shifted while putting in the Whiteline bushings so I get to spend some quality time under the car tonight doing the forward half. Spent 3 hours on the 2 rears due to alignment issues.

Note to others - don't use a floor jack to support the subfame when installing these bushings, it will likely move.

Someone needs to get video so I can at least watch how the cars ran.

No timeslips? I am disappoint.

I left from the track and drove straight to the coast, then from there straight to Central Oregon for a week of whitewater rafting. I just got home late last night for the first time since I visited the track!

Went to the track recently and raced @NickFRS in the quarter mile. My best (near lane) was a 14.269 with the SC on stock 215/45-17s stretched onto my 17x9.0 wheels, while Nick (far lane) earned a 14.039@100.59.
