I'm sorry man, the event is full. We already got 10 cars and Famoso will NOT allow us to run more than 10 cars unless we go into a more expensive rate (much more expensive than $258/car).

Sorry.....

Josh, my car is going for the record on Saturday.....

I woke up today, and found the car equipped with new modified exhaust system + CF intake + UD pulleys + a bunch of weight reduction mods + a secret tune

And don't even get me started on Shawn's car You guys we'll need to strap an 18-wheeler to his car to beat it

That would be a record in its self, a 275 shot and the motor should sound like 275 shot guns being fired at the same time and BOOM time for a tow truck. Looks like MO is ready .. GOOO MOOO I have two axles as backup JUST INCASE I might need them

The 63 motor can handle a 275 shot without a problem, but you need to get the timing and ECU correct. I will probably never shoot more than 150-175 with mine, but I have a 250 jet set-up just incase I'm ever feeling frisky

Hey guys,

Was at Fomoso Satuday. The first problem was there was a lot of fog so they did not let us start racing until noon, and traction was just so-so for the day. The good news was DA was -100 most of the day.

I only took a few runs but best was 11.90@116.3, ran 117.65 in an earlier run. Hopefully I can raise the boost a bit for this Saturday and get some traction.

It looks like Friday will be clear, so hopefully it won't fog up on Saturday.

Please keep an eye on this thread guys, I'll post updates continually until the event.

Terry, great numbers man....

Didn't you run an 11.89 on the video I made? Guess you were not hooking like you were previously. I remember you were rocketing out and your 60ft times were awesome. Wonder what you will run if dead hooking? 11.75?

Okay guys, I just got back from the track a few minutes ago. I delivered everybody's payments, and I'm glad to say we're good to go on Saturday. The weather was so good today that it was begging for racing (50 F, sunny, dry track, low DA, etc....).

Anyways, we will meet at the track at 8:00 a.m.. Yes, I said 8:00 a.m. If there is no fog, we will start as early as we can If there is fog/moisture, we'll have to wait it out, then start as soon as it clears.

Since everybody on the list will be running faster than 14 seconds (I hope ), please don't forget to bring a helmet.

I will keep updating this thread with weather information.

See you guys soon.....

This is awesome, wish I could be there to watch, let alone participate.

QUESTION: Do you guys use VHT trackbite? Will they let you apply it (I use a spray bottle) to the tires when approaching the lights??

Can't wait to read the results!

I'll have a gallon of VHT trackbite with me. I am going to soak my drag radials in it at the track, then do a small burnout.

I couldn't get my exhaust done in time nor the new tune, I'm a bit disappointed. Just praying the line lock works out.

Something tells me we will be doing this again though

========>>>> VERY IMPORTANT UPDATE <<<<========

We may be able to open the 2nd lane at Famoso and allow more people to join us if we can come up with 10 ADDITIONAL CARS. We will need to collect payment no later than tomorrow at 5:00 p.m.. This will still be first-come-first-serve basis. Whoever is interested, please PM me or send payment directly.

If you pay, and we could not collect the 10 extra cars, your money will be refunded to you (full amount).

Thanks,

MB_Forever
