Kisco Report post Posted March 10, 2013 Anything new?!?!? Haha man things have changed. Guess who ever shows up at the half mile will win My new car will not be here until June!!! Nothing new. Kevin has the TX2K event to attend next week and when he comes back he will start digging into my car. I am hoping I can still attend the 1/2 mile event June 1st. Sorry to hear about your car man, but hey, now you have a DCT monster on the way and with a turbo kit attached to the rear, it should rock!!!

wooosh Report post Posted March 11, 2013 I am hoping I can still attend the 1/2 mile event June 1st. Being a Lambo fan from the Chicago area ..... I'm a little concerned ..... The boys on the south side are planning to remind everyone that Chicago is A:M:S territory: I hear they will be bringing the following shop and customer cars: ALPHA #1 1600+ WHP GTR ALPHA #2 1600whp GTR ALPHA 9 Mercedes E63 AMG Turbo Hearse 2013 BMW M5 2012 Mercedes C63 AMG 2012 Mercedes CLS63 AMG ALPHA 9 Porsche 997 TwinTurbo Mercedes E55 AMG ALPHA 9 Audi R8 V10 Twin Turbo ALPHA 10 GT-R ALPHA 10 GT-R ALPHA Twelve GT-R ALPHA 9 GT-R ALPHA 9 GT-R ALPHA 9 GT-R LS1 Swapped big single Turbo 1969 Camaro 2001 Audi S4 600+ WHP Better ask Kevin to take a look at the UGR roster for this event .... A Stage 1 R version should be able to cover the field .... I mean we wouldn't want to put too much pressure on your Stage 3 .... Considering you'll still be getting to know it ...

I would think Kevin would want to attend that event too. A stage 3R car vs their A--/M--/S top dog would be cool to see. I bet you Fadi's car on full tilt would beat most, and be competative with the top of the bunch. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The boys on the south side are planning to remind everyone that Chicago is A:M:S territory: I hear they will be bringing the following shop and customer cars: wooosh, is that a list of cars that you found online that are for sure coming? Also, are you attending? I initially thought I had a chance of winning this event, but obviously not after seeing the list of cars that will be coming out. I think a stage 3 UGR car and a Alpha 10 on kill would be a great race. I don't think a stage 3 is enough for an A.lpha 12, but who knows. I would think Kevin would want to attend that event too. A stage 3R car vs their A--/M--/S top dog would be cool to see. I bet you Fadi's car on full tilt would beat most, and be competative with the top of the bunch. I am gonna talk to Kevin and see if he can make it. I briefly talked to him about it before. Thanks, Mike. I think my car would do well too but seeing these 1200+ awhp GTRs on the list I am sure I'll run into trouble. Like you said, Kevin needs to being out some R versions to have my back..=) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the event just to see who can go fastest in the 1/2 mile? So High mph would win? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

duhawks Report post Posted March 11, 2013 It is a pretty open and loose competition for the ones I have been too. You can race from a roll or a dig. But the winners are determined by the speed and not the time. They have fastest NA and FI class. Hopefully I can take my car there if I get it in time. I could hopefully compete for the NA class haha. PUCCY Class! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think recently an A.lpha 10 went 9.0 @ 160+ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jhbchess Report post Posted March 12, 2013 Kisco, if you go ahead and do the headers I bet you could just drop in a tilton clutch and some computer magic and turn it up to 1700hp. then when you're done put in a street clutch and turn the hp down...

Maybe I should ask Kevin to let me borrow R version parts to put on my car and then I can send them back to him after I win the 1/2 mile event..

pockmark Report post Posted March 12, 2013 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XjzJgh0plwA Here is Scotty's Stage 3 Pre LP car on pump gas making 850 AWHP at a 3rd party dyno. I think your car being a larger 5.2 liter LP motor, same day would probably be 900-950 or so AWHP on pump. Now race gas would be anybody's guess.
