dang! The Club Trials are the same day in Bremerton and I NEED to do a dyno with accurate A/F...

that'll teach me to miss Izzy's and help vote on dates.... Damn! Next time or I'll just have to arrange a time when I can.

Next time we do one with bimmer club I'll let you know - they are up in carb connection in kirkland and it's $75. We need to do one there as well to see our "real/true" growth as our past two were there so we have a good "baseline"

Looks like i can't get a break. The Volvo needs tabs on top of the gas to get out there and the price for dyno. I really wanted to go just to watch and hang out but I will not be able to. Lack of funds + lack of babysitter = Volvo FTL. Life has been busy and haven't had time or money for fun lately.

Someone please post pics and vids.

Sorry guys.

Have fun!

Ok, that was fun!

Chris and Michelle's car dominated the day and even spanked the supercharged BMW M3 (that is 3 liters right?). It was great to get a baseline and fun to se all the folks.

Looking forward to the next event.

289.7 hp, ~255 tq. Quite happy, especially with the tune. I posted up pictures on the other forum since more of the folks who attended are on there.

Sounds like the time trials were pretty dead, only 7 cars? Will SCCA continue their racing program here? Looks like a lot of folks are moving to conference.

Well, part of the problem was the Trials event wasn't talked up enough before hand and the regular drivers needed to help in recruiting, Me included. Worse most of the regular drivers didn't show. If most of the regulars showed it wouldn't have been a $$ loser. SCCA racing in general will continue fine. some folks have gone to conferance, some do both. Track time is track time! I plan to run a little conferance but want to support the track and club trials program as it's a low cost low risk way to get feet wet and see if it's something you want to do. Otherwise you have to rent someone else's car. For car enthusiasts and tinkerers , like me, I want to know how MY car does as well as spend my driving time in it. There will continue to be club and track trials but a stand alone day (on a Saturday) like this last one is definatly endangered... I think that is to bad.. Where else can you run a non caged car at speed and get an official time. (track days are NOT timed, tho many do try, under the table, it ain't racing.) There is a Friday PDX and Club Trials event in 2 days, but hell I can't take the time off. If any of you can, you should try it out.

To bad the other forum is DOA right now. Must be a forum bug going around.
