I was really hoping to make it up for UMTR. As of right now, it's not looking good. The engine is sitting next to the car, along with the trans. It's all ready to go back...just got to find the time.

Good luck to all...

Pretty much what I've always done but from everything I've heard and read, the Dual friction loves break in time...

Looks like I probably wont make it afterall. I'm hoping to get my heads back from the machine shop tomorrow but there's a lot more work to do to the car before it's track ready.

So are you running this weekend?

NOPE!! I don't know why I even had my hopes up.....

If anyone (with any cash) "the catch" on this board was remotely smart...they would be calling me. Since everything is 100% brand new & this isnt used junk....I'd be willing to take a $15K loss & thats it....which would put me around $45K-$50K selling price period.

don't need to sell to make ends meet...but i will admit im pretty over this scene at this time....& if someone bought it id send it down the road. im not going to try to sell it advertising it or anything...

i know whats there & i know what it costs & know what its worth

probably just keep it around and run the occasional stick shift nationals & maybe a NMRA or World Ford Challenge event here & there.... other than that it can sit in the garage with a cover on it for that sunny day...;)

just a 28,000 mile 93 cobra, my BES motor & the GForce G5R tranny setup will cost you over $50K not counting the other 10 page parts list......

After a few hours of rain and track prep the sun Shined down on C-bus. I am home early after what looks like a water leak from my head gasket. I drove 240 miles round trip and all I got to do was one burnout!

Hey Tim,

It was a good burnout though.... :D

Trust me, you didn't miss a whole lot...
There was a rail that rolled.. guy walked away from it....
other than that, basically just waiting... Street Stick didn't run their 2nd qualifying/test pass til' 7:30 or so... :rolleyes:

The worst part is it was all together untill Thursday night. Wanted to see how the new front end was going to work. I had everything together for weeks, just couldnt get to the track untill then. At least I didnt drive all the way to Cbus to have it do it there. Sorry Tim, at least yours dont seem to bad to fix but still sucks.

Good times! Rain lasted a little longer than we wanted, but after that the weather was beautiful. UMTR was late getting going, but we were all wrapped up by 11:30 or so.

I had an interesting night on street tires after discovering cords showing on the drag radials. Made for some fun and very inconsistant passes, but I managed runner up!

OSM Outlaw 8.5 is fun to watch!

I was wondering what the leak was and hoped it wasnt anything serious. Sorry to hear bout the gasket! Thanks for coming up & supporting the class, its very much appreciated :)
