Today I attended the first "Street Legal Only" event at Eaglemotorplex in Ashcroft. Very small turn out but they plan on trying to get more street legal only events going. Good fun had by all that showed.

My car ran well with the exception of my transmission. Had a very hard time getting a good first to second shift. Time for a built tranny.

My fastest time of the day was 11.97@123mph with a fastest trap of 125.9mph for the day. Shitty 1.8-2.0 second 60' times as well. Vids/pics to come.

Running cheapy 225/45/17s. My biggest time loss on the runs was my 1st to 2nd shift. I would lose all boost between the shift. Not grinding gears but just wouldn't go in.

Goal for the next trip to the track is to trap 135mph+. I've got room for alot more boost and timing on the current setup.

Looking good man.  I won't be surprised if you make a new personal/car best run everytime you go out as you get the new setup sorted out.

I just swapped in a GR4 transmission with a taller 1st gear. Way better feel so far. Going to track it this weekend if possible. Waiting for winter before getting a built trans.
