Default Sunshine 6/8- Anyone going?

Got the new rear in the car this weekend, and hoping to get my calipers ground down and ET streets mounted, and take it down there and see what happens. .Was hoping to say hey to some of you regulars .

I would love to meet you out there and race you in the 1/8th but I'm gonna pass this week. Car is going in for paint on Saturday and I still have some little things to do to get it ready. I will take a rain check for later though.

We'll def. runem again. I've changed alot around, so don't really have any idea what to expect. Weren't you doing some upgrades(besides the paint) yourself? I "should" be able to keep up better in the first 60' now.

I've done a little but not the bigger turbo yet. Also I have to order a new set of DR's soon as the last track day we were at did them in.

Yeah, my Nitto's are getting there too! Now with the spool on the street, they will be gone soon.
If anyone goes out, stop by. I'll be in a black SS with Weld prostar's/ETstreets on the back, with stock SS wheels on the front .
Unless no one will mount the ET's ( they are almost bald), then I'll be trying not to blow the nitto's off at the line

If you can turn, you're going too slow!
