Looking good Bill. I can hardly wait to see it in person. That's a great idea...

Also, what are you bringing this year for tires???

I'm running my same ones from last year. I'm too cheap to buy new ones.

Bests, James

Thanks guys makes me feel im going in the right direction with this,man im exited about our next event its going to top all the rest im sure.HHmmmm tires bringing some extras,we got some bigger 315'A's

for the rear and some 285r6's for the front wore out my A's im cheap to But Fossportmotorsport.com set me up for a Deal .Locked the rear end actually went down to a 2.75 so we should only do 2 shifts a lap

my 3.08 were running out at or before the flagstand it will hurt for the drags

but i may bring them also. You both have Ausssem cars I know most Daytonas are messured by your Coupe and other nice ones like it.So I continue to use your great cars as the standard bearers for this project...WB3

ps. James hope you and the family are doing ok after Ike blew threw!!

I can't wait either. Car's basically ready, just brake pads and wax (that like10HP isn't it?). Don't want to drive it too much before then for fear of breaking something. I already have my list of stuff to pack into the trailer! OK, now who's going to run 1:16s with me? I need someone to play with. James and Bill will be much too fast, especially with those fat tires. Speaking of fat tire, I'm thirsty now.

That looks great Bill,

I can't hardly wait for the event to start. I am heading back up to St. Louis tonight to see if we can't resolve a couple issues that has came up over the last week or so. But everything is on schedule and all of our staff is ready to make this the best Run N Gun ever.

Matt, I'll be hopefully running in the 1:15 range if I can keep my OLD tires on the track! If not, oh well. Maybe I should wax my car like you did and gain an extra 10hp. I'll need it to help me keep up with your new MONSTER MOTOR!

See you guys there....

Hey Mat,
Them welds still holding up ?

Hersh

951mat · #11 (**permalink**) 09-26-2008, 07:27 PM

They sure are! Hersh saved my bacon at MidAm34 this year. I busted a motor mount, started to crack a beer and load the car on the trailer b/c I figured I was done. Hersh told me he could fix it and he sure did. I owe you Hersh, hopefully yours is running in tip top shape and no work will be required at RunNGun, and I'll still owe you one.

Matt,
I was just tickled that I could be helpful in a situation like that. I mostly enjoyed talking to your Dad. He is really a super guy to talk to. To me, that's what it's all about at the track. Friends helping out and having a good time.

My GT still is sitting in Dallas at Jay's shop. I still have to get up there and change the clutch out. I'm pretty sure I should be ready but if not I still will be at my favorite event helping out as much as I can.

Hersh

Well, dad will be there again. He loves these events too, having new people to tell his lies too. He'll probably know more people there than I will, that's just how he is. Can't wait.

Bill, that looks really great, can't wait to see it in person here in a few days. We should have a running car on Wednesday or Thurs, not much time for a shake down. Boy, it is going to be close.
James...Got your message last week, look forward to catching up with you and some of the other great folks I met last year. I'll be flying in on Tuesday eve, and staying at the "Queen". Anyone else be there on Tuesday??
Cheers,
Richard
