  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    TexasT Texas, where are you from

    sounds like a real good place to do it. I'm in!

    what else do we need in the way of planning? Track is kinda taken care of. I'm sure we can line up in the staging lanes for some grudge action before the brackets get under way, you know during the test n tune portion.

    You would be called up by class for time trial passes, whoever wants to grudge race should be able to? They don't care who you line up with in TnT

    I'm planning on making Abilene. The SC Regal I have, changing over to E85 and the guy that can tune it for me is there in Abilene. Coming up on the night before to get the tuning done.
    Should be very close to the 7's in the 1/8 with the E85.

    Just curious, who is that? I wasn't aware of any tuning shops around here, (but I don't get out much either...)
    I wonder if he's got a chassis dyno I could put my LeSabre on...

    The guys name is Zach, he use to be down in Houston and now in Abilene. He does a lot of tuning on 3800's as well as LS stuff

    Is he at Ed's Machine shop or maybe Outlaw Automotive?
    Can't find him online with that info, do you know where he works or any contact info? PM me if you don't want to post here please.

    Sorry it took so long to reply...

    I would have to ask my son, he is a friend of his. Not sure what shop he works at or his own shop?

    He has tuned one of our 3800's before when he was in Houston.
