i'd hope he knows not to FLOOR it. hehe i don't know cap...1000 rpm hold doesn't get me better times...maybe i'm doing it wrong?

anywho - we'll definitely help you out at the track man...we're all there to have fun, drive fast, be safe, and burn rice!!!!

Hasn't helped me either.

But practice practice practice. And the best way to practice is to do it the same exact way over and over, so I'm just used to 1k rpm's.

I've seen people run in shorts, but I'd recommend pants.
I don't think drive shaft loops are required unless you have slicks.

Bring the pants...if a official catches you...u can't race. Although one night I was there watching my friend T&T. On the last run he asked me to run it. I was in shorts and nobody said anything.

Like I said, after the aftercooler, my intake temps tend to be just about ambient temperature. My Autotap read my intake temp at about 81 on my way there, that day.

Oh - no driveshaft loop either... oops...

Thumbs up

ok guys and gals for those who want to meet up here's the details i got....the central jersey mustangs and fords are meeting at the Brunswick Square mall on Route 18 in East Brunswick. they are meeting there at 11:30am sharp. if anyone wants to meet up elsewhere north of there and caravan to that mall together let me know. i'm more than interested! i want to roll up to that mall and show up the mustangs! hehe im' coming from woodbridge so the woodbridge mall or menlo mall would be the best bet i think...if there are any other places you think are more convenient for everyone just let me know. but i'll be going to the brunswick square mall afterwards regardless....later all.
