Is anybody going down this Friday?
I'm going to try and make it down with a friend in the Swift.
Rick - if you're around, give me a call and let me know!

Just noticed the BP comment... The BP swap after surprised me in that it did not feel as torquey as the 1.6 did. It did make more peak power, but it was just a different feel to the car. The BP has a nicer cross-flow head, with some big ports with plenty of potential... I had plans for big turbo and...

I dynoed a BP escort years back while we were making some software for the customer and we were having a hard time making more power changing the timing maps. The reason we found out to be that the owner had already advanced base timing by quite a bit... and happened to nearly hit the nail on the he...

Fuel on most imports these days, and many days ago, is cut under decelleration. Gas mileage should not be worse... some of my best gas mileage I ever got (50+mpg) was in the mountains from a combination of this and other benefits I've seen some newer stockish Hondas get driven hard at the track, dec...

bleah... midterms. I haven't really been online. I do my dynoing with Reg at rcts. I think that having a dyno day on a weekend came up as a possibility before, but there were too many people strapped for cash. If you are available on a weekday sometime, I should be able to get you a deal at Regs if ...

I don't know if it was the cool night, but I didn't see too many people in the stands for the last SS event of the year. Super Rick got a 13.8@10xmph? Crappy Kyle had a best of 14.6@97mph.. 1st bunch of runs were frustrating, 12mph faster than NA and almost the same ETs. Best run was on 4-5psi in fi...

Yeah the SCC wasn't very organized at all this year. Even the announcer in the tower didn't have a clue what he was talking about. I think out of the whole night, I won 2 races. The other 8 losses were against 12 - 14 second cars. I was very dissapointed in my car. My fastest time was 16.1 seconds....

super clutch in, smoke problem creatively fixed, in testing the car starting to perform nicely, but.... I noticed an ever so faint leak from the modified fuel rail (not modified by me), so I'm grounded as there is not an easy way for me to fix that safely. The joys of sorting through the details. I ...
