@ dezldave961	:	(12 April 2021 - 09:46 PM) Hey, chuggin' along. Just finished a big overhaul on my turbo build after 12yrs.
@ Nateteo	:	(12 April 2021 - 05:56 PM) literally, the last time I logged in was 3 years ago hows everybody doing
@ dezldave961	:	(12 April 2021 - 04:43 PM) Ya, they do open bracket at GS Nationals. I may go if I'm free, just to attend, even if there's no cage, yet.
@ Marchi1	:	(12 April 2021 - 01:32 PM) I am taking the SC car.I am sure it is a big event as it is in Bowling Green, KY so yeah will need to be fully copliant, but I think there is a bracket class. God I hope so
@ dezldave961	:	(08 April 2021 - 01:50 PM) *S&W Racecars cage for 95-99 Monte... I'd actually fit the xTSM class, aside from not being a RWD, if I swapped the Air-Air I/C back in. Probably wouldn't be competitive just yet, but I'd like to see them squirm.
@ dezldave961	:	(08 April 2021 - 01:48 PM) My only hesitation is that it's a big "gate-keeper" club, from my year of monitoring their forum. I might show up for fun to T&T in an open class, if I have a cage by then (S&S 90's W-body one when I get time).
@ dezldave961	:	(07 April 2021 - 08:12 PM) Oh, is the TurboBuick thing om, again? That's what I initially started my build overhaul for last year. Might be able to get out there, finally.
@ Marchi1	:	(07 April 2021 - 02:53 PM) Dave there is a Buick only event in May in Bowling Green...
@ dezldave961	:	(04 April 2021 - 02:51 PM) For launching in street trim with a s/c, you can pre-load just a bit at staging, then roll from that point to full throttle over ~1-2sec as traction permits. The tires will screech some at a track, but a 1.9-2.1 is the good typical range for most folks, with occasional freaks getting 1.8-1.9 success (my best on 2nd-hand Nitto 555R's was maybe mid-1.9's with my GenV/2.7/XP/3.29 setup at Norwalk).
@ dezldave961	:	(03 April 2021 - 06:11 PM) You should be able to modulate the throttle a bit better to get at least a 2.0 with practice. The Mustang is probably about all that can get, they're not too impressive without work.
@ ejguillot	:	(02 April 2021 - 01:12 PM) I wasn't the only one having problems launching, There was a 2015 Mustang 5.0 on drag radials whose best time was a 12.9 after 3 tries or so.
@ ejguillot	:	(02 April 2021 - 01:09 PM) Good news was nothing broke, and no KR on a 2.8" pulley. Will be revising timing tables too.
@ ejguillot	:	(02 April 2021 - 01:08 PM) The first runs were so so. 13.5@104, couldn't launch for shit! 2.4 60' was the best I got. Then I look things over and realize my front shocks are all worn out. Ordered some KYB's from Rockauto on sale ($70 shipped), will be installing those and see what I can do next time.
@ dezldave961	:	(01 April 2021 - 11:38 AM) Cool. I may try BMP eventually, based on prep shown in Cleetus videos. Might live in the area again soon, too.
@ Marchi1	:	(25 March 2021 - 03:11 PM) The silver car will be hitting the track in May...Should see better numbers than the last pass 6 years ago
@ Marchi1	:	(25 March 2021 - 03:11 PM) Waiting for numbers.....
@ ejguillot	:	(25 March 2021 - 01:47 PM) Hi all, finally taking my project GS to Bradenton Motorsports Park for it's maiden 1/4 mile run.
@ dezldave961	:	(22 March 2021 - 01:21 PM) Ya... I'm having fun working on mine, but mostly going to hit events for all cars. The big 3800 ones from ClubGP days are gone, aside from one in Detroit.
