hmmm how 'track prepped' can get he it? fresh brakes, fluids & etc? Everything we look for in tech is on the website, so following that, it is very possible he can get it to where is has to be. Others here Im sure can pitch in too. Plus all you need to preregister is a credit/debit card & a working computer.

Cool Brandon! But why would the DSM break?- you just got it! Figure out why/where it would break and take care of it now... or get a different car (non-DSM):goof.

In a month there should be openings, but because we waited to open registration its hard to predict how fast it'll fill.

If you are looking for tires for the event, I have plenty to choose from.
I have Pirelli slicks, Hoosier A6 & R6, Hoosier koni slick, Dunlop slicks,
Toyo RA1 and Hoosier wets.

Why beat up your street tires? Invest in quality and speed!

Josh,

Your always welcome for a ride. 2:2X should not be problem this year. MY buddy John just did a dyno on his yellow C5ZO6 with a 427, 560rwhp. That thing should really fly, low 2:20's

i was gonna hope for a 2:4X, but with the current setback, i'll be content with a 2:59... but we'll see... the black car definitely has the straightaway advantage, and with hoosiers on all 4 corners, it should be attainable to get sub 3:00 in a bolt on stock suspension'd neon with me driving:goof

It's usually pretty cold at the spring one, with my oil cooler hooked up it actually took some hard driving to get the oil up to temp. I'll be leaving mine off if I get this thing put back together in time.

Is Bob done with your engine?
