Im on Hoosier dr's now. and stock wheels on the front. Car is on alittle diet, and I'll have atleast the rear seat out, maybe the pass. seat also. I usually cut around 1.7 60ft's. I should be there by 12:30-1:00pm. Look me up. I have a sticker on the back that says importkiller.We can get a run or two in.
Sounds good. I usually have the back seat and spare out as well. Haven't taken the passenger seat out though. I'll be the MBM with BAAD LS2 Illinois plates... can't miss me.
On a side note... Haven, how long do the half shafts take to put in? I might try to get them in tomorrow night after work. Anything special I need for the install?
DAMN IT!!! this is the only saturday i've had to work all year.i would love to come out and get some runs in.especially with the weather and some other gto's there. hey goatman...do you have a canned tune with your 112 and a garageif you keep putting it off i just may end up with some free time on my hands and do it for ya.

It shouldn't take more than 1 to 1 1/2 hrs to install, torque wrench, correct allen socket (don't remember size), and maybe a universal, red loctite, torque to 60 ftlbs, be sure to put spreader plates back on, doesn't take long.

I've been pretty busy with my farm (its never done down there), my house in Indep. and my mom's place, now deer season is about to start. I'll probably get to it around the end of the month, I hope.

Goatman pretty much said it all. You'll need a torque wrench and a good 8mm allen socket that won't twist and Locktite. I usually take two torque passes, one at 40 ft/lbs and the final at 60.
I might try to make it out to KCIR tomorrow. Sounds like fun.
I'm getting a new cam and UDP installed, then retuned next Friday. I'm worried the rest of the November weekends will be crappy after I get the work done.

Hey Matt, like the guys said it's all Gforce stuff, bolt together stubs, level 2 big n little halfshafts, aluminum driveshaft, and Harrop rear cover. I think he still has the fall sale going on, Chris is a good guy to work with on parts. All his parts are very high quality. Hope this helps.
Haven
Haven,
I want to beef up the back end like you did, can i give you a shout live and chat about the stuff you did? If so, how can i reach you?

Com'on out we can get a run or two in. We can get some goat on goat action going...
well....looks like i don't have to work after all.think i might put the drag bags in and DRs on and venture west.what time is the track open and when is everybody planning to be there?
Got the half shafts in last night. Took me about twice that long.... I need air tools!! Took them out for a drive, did a 180 on some pretty uneven pavement. Absolutely no wheel hop!! Hopefully I'll have the same results at the track and I can get some good runs today. I'm gonna try to get there around 1. See everyone there!
Track opens at 12:30, racing 1:00 - 5:00. I will try to be there about 2:00.
crap.i was hoping it stayed open later.prob wont be able to make it then cause i have to wait on the wife to get back home(probably not a good idea to take my 7yr old to the track and run with me)so by the time i get there it wont be much point in trying.oh well guess i will have to go pick on some locals on the street.untill next time
Had a great time out there. Nice seeing you again Goatman, and Batboy, and Baad ls2.
I didn't reach my goal of 11's, or even my pb. but I guess I'll take that 12.2 for it being alittle warmer today, and the heatsoak from sitting in line so long. Man it was crowded today...
No PB for me either. Still was a nice day to be at the track. I haven't done anything with the vids yet. I'll work on that tomorrow. Might make a collage or something from all the footage. That old Cuda that I ran was an exciting race. Nothing like blasting down half the track side by side to get the juices flowing (he got the jump on me at the line, but I ran him down on the big end).
Hey black06gto, I finally saw that green Hulk car that you mentioned, it make a pass at the very end of the day (couldn't see the timing board from the staging lanes though).
Was a good time, even though I didn't run worth a shit. Good seein you guys. I think I mighta ran ok had I not shit myself when I holeshotted that ZR1.... Need to get this thing figured out.
On a positive note, the new half shafts netted me absolutely zero wheel hop! GForce FTW!

Thanks in advance for working on the vids. yeah I was wanting
To see that hulk car.I bet it it was fast. I did get my last two 60
Footers down to 1.7 so I believe the hoosiers like around 18lbs.
In them.
I will make the track when i get the half shafts, stubs and drive shaft on this winter. It's set up for street racing for now....
Aslo, I was at House of Boost yesterday and someone has a black 05-06 GTO getting a Cam, Long tubes and a blower installed with JO plates. Anyone on this forum?

Man I got to get the goat parked next month, and start planning my project. Im going to be one of the slowest goats in town if I don't get a move on...
I thought your car looked pretty cool staging in all that tire smoke. Yeah, that F-body was fast, it would of been a close race for me, too bad I didn't get lined up with him. BAAD LS2 is the one that filmed most of the vids, thanks man.

No prob... nice job editing. Wish I woulda got a good run in. I'm still fuming. Gotta get this thing figured out.
