2016 Ford vs Buick
« on: October 12 2016, 10:56:54 AM »
Luckily I'm off hitch this week of the event. Driving up to Noble on Friday morning. Event starts that evening and again on Saturday. Hope the weather holds. I'll throw up pics when I can. It will be a big test of unknowns for me.  SD2, radial slicks, exhaust, 6262, and suspension setup. Tuning will be my biggest hurdle. I hope to get some test passes Friday evening and a few more in the qualifying on Saturday before the elimination rounds.

A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

You'll do fine.  Just creep up on it.  PM me if you need any pointers on tuning a VE table.

Thanks fella's!  Mike I will definately have my tablet set on speed dial for when the time arises.  Rich, I posted a couple of logs on a thread titled "SD2 tuning." 


I removed the RJC exhaust and installed the Pypes system. Steve, there are three versions of mufflers that you can order with that system. I chose the race pro muffler.  Attaching a pic to show how restrictive it isn't.


Installed a 4" intake pipe and couplers that I got from Mark at TR custom parts. I am completely MAF-less. 


Drained the tank and put back in 5 gallons of 93. Going to detail the car tomorrow morning and head to the scales.

Looking like a muffler should.
Underhood looking sharp.
Should make a good showing. Is Ken going?

Cleaned and tires swapped out. I'm really digging the race stars!  Local scale was closed today so no weight
