deff not gonna go wot untuned. I figured I'de get it tuned before the clutch was broken in.

Last summer I only put probably 1000 miles total on the car so it could take quite a while to get 500 miles on her.

ohh so dont pull a ron and race on a base tune after don tells you not too?!???! BAHAHAHA

I was just planning on getting her tuned right away (which will require WOT anyway) Just so I know I'm safe, but don said I could putt around on this cam without tuning just no WOT I am guessing he wants me to putt around on it for 500 miles than bring it in for tuning so the clutch is fully broken in before doing the wot dyno tuning. Gonna have to drive this thing everywhere.

I just got the monster stage 3 too. It's not as heavy as the Spec 3+.. better for old grannies :) I'm having fun with this thing. Actually coming from my worn clutch, I'm just happy with anything that grabs

Just gotta break it in another 200 miles and we'll see how crappy I launch at the Seekonk Speedway sunday. I'll probably wish I still had my worn clutch :)

Do they enforce the rules for spectator drags?

The rx7 could be really good for spectator drags but it doesn't have carpet so its considered stripped by most. Still has the seats/dash/headliner/door inserts ect.

The rules technically say full interior

CamaroRacing12 05-24-2010 10:46 PM

no idea ur gonna have to ask bryan on that one

go to ocean state job lot and buy some indoor out door carpet and just throw it IN
