    Looking for a Sandbox to play in

    Thanks Kip, I am planning to be there Thursday for your Street car event and cruising Scottsdale that evening with the GN. I didn't want to tow the car down to just run on Thursday so I was looking for a class to race for Fri/Sat.

    Looking for a Sandbox to play in

    Paul, Thanks for reaching out and taking time to talk with me on the phone. I do have a better understanding of your position. I am going to look into moving the lower coil over mount to the back of the LCA bracket and your right it does look like it might not be that difficult. If I do not...

    Looking for a Sandbox to play in

    Thanks for responding Paul. To be clear no exception can or will be made even with a weight handicap or running on a smaller 235 tire which is clearly at a dis-advantage? I only ask since this rule is pretty much an aesthetic one and has no real bearing on the performance of the car and I am...

    Looking for a Sandbox to play in

    I am planning to bring my GN to the Nats this year and would like to find a class I can race on Saturday and I somehow do not entirely fit the rules for any of the race classes at BG. Being a former TSO car from the mid 2000s the class my car fits the closest today is TSM. My car fits the...

    Bringing to BG: motors, Transmissions, stock parts, race parts Stage parts

    I am planning to come to BG and have WAY to much stuff and need to make room. Contact me if you are looking for something I can not list everything here and I just took some random pics of stuff I have in storage. I have several motors and 200r4 transmissions. I do not have any Stage blocks at...

    Building a 7sec 87GN Drag-n-Drive car with V6 Stage 1 heads!

    I made some changes to the front suspension which came out really well. I added new UCA from TRZ which cleared the passenger side exhaust much better. I also finally installed the Billet spindles I have had for awhile. They did work with the Wilwood brake kit I had so I broke down and got the...

    Yes that was me in the video's. I had a great time and got to take home some of Tom Bailey's money too! We went to test which is something we have not had the opportunity to do since the cam change and Sick Week. We tested Thurs with a few shake down passes. I had some small issues we...

    Wilwood Brakes, AFIS Injectors, Trick Chassis UCAs

    I have the complete front Wilwood brake kit off my GN. 140-2508 kit with vented rotors, Comes mounted on the spindles with braided brake lines and an extra set rotors. This is an excellent brake kit I've had on the car for a long time. I have stopped my car at 170mph with no chute and these...

    Building a 7sec 87GN Drag-n-Drive car with V6 Stage 1 heads!

    A lot of cars, including mine, struggled at SGMP. IMO they simply had to much glue on the track. The 1st day we were there it was awesome we made 4-5 hits on the car all in the mid to low 1.20's. Finished the day with a 1.22 and 5.22 1/8. The next day was a total shit show and we couldn't...

    Building a 7sec 87GN Drag-n-Drive car with V6 Stage 1 heads!

    Prize money? Lol I dont think anyone is doing this for prize money it might be like $1500 which would barely cover the cost of the hotel rooms for the week! Thanks, and yes my definition of fun is definitely a little different. I like to challenge myself and I am constantly do things to do...

    Building a 7sec 87GN Drag-n-Drive car with V6 Stage 1 heads!

    Thanks, it is way more brutal when you don't have your shit fully sorted out that's for sure. That's twice now we got stuck and both times in not so ideal situations. The injectors locking up on the drive was a surprise for us especially considering how well it did at Drag Week which we only...

    Building a 7sec 87GN Drag-n-Drive car with V6 Stage 1 heads!

    Loaded up and on our way. We put the 50% ethanol gas we had in the tank back in and got on the road. We needed to fill up when we left and only had a few options for an E85 station which were all out of the way. We stopped and decided to just run pump gas again. The car ran fine but it did...
