If anyone coming from LA is interested...

I may be driving an SLS and will likely hire a car hauler to get it to the track.

We can haul our cars more cheaply keeping the engine cool, if there is any interest in have your car transported up from LA please respond. I was offered the use of the car hauler and driver form the studio.

It is located just off the 5 freeway and the Colorado exit right accross from the East boundary of Griffith Park.

I feel more comfy driving a MB vs the Corvette.

SL65 or SLS

Oh SH***TT...... Josh is going all out

You should bring the SLS and capture the SLS record, which since no one has ran it at a drag strip yet, you'll be able to capture it even if you run 13s

SLS all the way

Looking less and less likely I will be able to make it. I have parts out that I thought I would have back by now. There just wont be enough time to get shipped, installed, and tuned- SUCKS!!
(Leave me registered, maybe a miracle will happen, but I doubt it)

If I don't make it, donate my funds to the event.

What part are you missing? There's always time to get it tuned, just make sure to expedite the missing part and get-r-done!!!!

Let me know if I could be of help.

You gotta make it bro.... we only get good weather once a year here in California

Like Alan said... try to expedite any shipping so that you can save time there. In regards to tuning, I'm sure Jeremy or any one of the other tuners can take care of you at the track. The only thing that really needs to be done prior is parts + installation.

I have a fuel cut out issue at redline that Jeremy has a fix for. If he will be at the track, my worst case would be he could flash it there.

The part I am waiting on the the 82mm tb which is being matchfitted and ported at TTM. I can not complete Injection until I do the TB since I don't want to pull the SC twice. I guess I can just get the flash, and run what I got.. But had hoped to be "done"..

Do we know for sure Jeremy will be there? He has my file.
