King of the Streets - WNY Street Car Shootout

… Can I borrow your time machine for a bit?

If the weather holds, I’d like to go. Would be going out 20A out of Hamburg.

This is going to be a fun day, I can’t wait!

Not looking good for me. This is going to be an 11th hour decision.

Is the car still not running right?

Just an FYI… I went this past Sunday (yesterday) and it was beyond packed… I made about 4-5 passes from being there from the time the gates opened til about 3:30 PM. Also made the drive to and from the track. I doubt I’ll make the trip again this next Sunday but I hope you guys have good luck and solid passes.

Choda’s signature is aimed at me pretty well. 12.1 @ 128 with a 2.1 60’ spinning on street tires til the 1/8.

Best of luck if I don’t make the trip and maybe I’ll make it next year.

Now that its on all 8 cylinders its boosting to the moon (hitting 14 psi by 4.5k rpm) I think the spring is something stupidly large so i ordered the basic 6-8 psi spring from JGS yesterday. I will see if that is able to keep the pt7675 under control. At that point it just needs some clean up on the WOT tune. Hopefully i can make it and at least be all squared away on wastegate.

I’m not sure I understand the problem. :slight_smile:

Also to be somewhat helpful have you made a full pul and logged it to see if the boost comes down and you are seeing a temporary creep/spike? Or is it hitting, gate opens, and it holds that boost ie wrong spring.

That’s odd. The wastegate looks to be in a decent place, and the right size. Maybe the valve is sticking a bit, or there is a burr or something on it? Could be springs too. Fwiw I ordered my Tial gates with 2lb springs, and they came with 7 lb springs.

Hopefully you can get the tune right too. It sucks you missed most of the year because of little bs.

Buffalo crew are meeting at eastern hills at 10:00. Dave and busters lot right off transit

Empire gates open at 11. Racing at noon

Putting a new clutch in the car tomorrow in hopes of being able to make a couple passes. Smoked it last week. Barring any unforeseen issues I’ll be there.

Been calling for rain all week for Sunday

The weather around here has been so accurate

It doesn’t look like I will be going unless by some miracle I look into fixing the meth and by some other miracle I find and fix the issue.

Calling for 59 degrees and rain, it will probably be a game day decision.

My new spring came in, hopefully this will fix the problem. Also if theres a chance of rain, im out. I don’t want to do a repeat of 2 weeks ago!

Filling up some bottles friday and I’ll be ready

30% chance of bullshit.

As long as I can get my carb fueling right I’ll be there.

Whats a carb?

Old fggt shit that is going to get replaced when it snows.
