Any One Going To Milan Tomorrow?

I was just wondering if anyone was going to hit Test And Tune at Milan tomorrow night?

I wonder how busy it will be?

Hope to see some people there.

Sounds Good.... Look for a 01 Z28 (SS Hood, Fikse F5s) (Maroon). Running, ????. That's the question to be answered. 11.7s?

Later,

Bill

Hey Chris,

I know your phone is dead I was trying to call you, LOL.

MAN, it was more packed than I have ever seen it on a Wed. I had 6 cars in front of me just to Tech in.

I only got two runs in..... It took me about 45 mins to get the first run in. Launched nice about 3/4 throtte and got a 1.66 60'. Pulled hard thru 1-2nd and then...... Bammmmmmmm I hit the 2-3 shift and it wouldn'd go. I lifted on it and put the gas back down still hitting the limiter then shifted. How about a 12.3 at 107MPH.

Second run a car had dumped oil on the starting line and not sure but doesn't seem as if it was cleaned up well. I got no traction and hit a 1.9 60' and a 12.5.

My 1/8 mph was like 81MPH.

I need a new tranny bad! I need to find one quick. Any ideas for me?

I left you a message at work....... I want to get it in and done ASAP. just trying to find a new trans to buy. Not sure where or what type.

Let me know your thoughts.

Thanks... You are lucky you didn't go last night. Would have been a waste of your time.

I saw your car, sharp looking. You pulled next to me on the second run of the night. I agree, the first time I was up it hooked great. I was pissed after sitting for an hour plus for the second run. Then to just have the tires spin up made me really ticked off.

What times did you run?

Later,

Re: Any One Going To Milan Tomorrow?

Bill, this is the company I think I'm going with for my trans rebuild. Fair pricing too. That 2-3 shift sucks ***. I hate it. I might go to Milan on the 28th with Chris. Depending on the weather.

Re: Any One Going To Milan Tomorrow?

yeah. i only got 5 runs that night. i bet people were out for the last time of the season, me being one of them. put her up in storage for the heads/cam build.
i was just able to match my best time (13.3 @102). if i could just get that damn 60 foot down, i could only get a 2.0. i guess that is about all you can expect on street tires.

Thanks Rod. I apprciate the help.

What have you been up to? What is the status of your car?

Are you going to try to make it to next Saturday morning at Milan? Al said he was going to come down if the weather is okay. Of course you probably already knew that.

Bill
