After we all wake up:-)

I would leave the Plantation between 08:30 and 08:45. That would allow us plenty of time to have breakfast and get to the shop early enough to ensure good parking spots.

Ghislain

Sounds good to me. Ill have to leave around 7 to meet up with you guys for 830. I'll post back here if something terrible happens and i cant make. Otherwise ill be there between 8 and 830.

I'm really stoked, I don't know if i'll be able to sleep...Giz, don't think I won't need a nap after we cross the border

I'm hoping to be there around 3pm Friday, see you all there.

I have had a little accident and injured my foot. I am not sure I will be able to make it

I have parts here for Giz and Salomon...if you want, you can swing by on the way down or on the way back if I don't make it and pick up. I am only 2 minutes or less off the highway..

Sorry to hear that Zig! Hope you heal up quickly.

Thanks...I just pray it heals up AT ALL...even if not quickly. I am diabetic and supposed to be taking better care of my feet...

Catch you all on the other side, I'll be there in the white Elantra.

Safe drive to everybody, and Ziggy get better!

Get better Zig!

Safe travels DSM.orgERs! Have a blast and take lots of pictures/videos!

Enjoy the journey folks!

Tim and Julie Sedore Just showed up! I heard the awsome sounding Evo from down the road!

Toss some pics up for us non-attendees

It's like a secret cult meeting (that everyone knows about)...you can't see what goes on unless you come

Or slanted Jay shares some video

Dirty evo!

awesome!!! more pics please

We all went for a little test & tune at the track tonight.

Knocked off a personal best on my 2nd run ever with an E16G.

25psi. Launching at 5250rpm. Shifting at 7750rpm.

12.67 @ 108.85mph.
1.80 60'.
3.9s 0-60mph.

Let off twice (had some knock).

Still a lot left on the table. 2 more days lefts. No meth, 11-second E16G here we come.

The Black Pearl made its first successfull pass..

Bogged off the launch and ran a 14.2 at 19psi..Lost against Garret by a 10th

Tomorrow Im gonna launch better and turn up the boost.

I made my first pass on the new tranny, 12.6 @109, letting off in 4th due to knock. I was nervous as hell, first time on this transmission and a welded center diff. Went ok though, this track is a lot stickier than I'm used to.

Now I need to tune for the meth and see what I can really do.

Sounds like you guys are having a blast! Rep Canada

Yummmmm evo

Set my lauch to 5000 rpms and launched the DSM way!

Got a ract of .576.. 60' of 1.865.. et.13.51!

problem was I couldnt find 3rd... So I spent alot of time with the clutch in!

Second run was gonna be better... But I over heated.

Maybe tomorrow!

Sounds like fun In the first pic that looks like 'LIL EVO's big turbo awd Colt/Summit

What type of fuel you guys pump there, more importantly octane ?

i think we all ran 93...the track had 110 and 112 for sale, but like $9 a gallon...

I was running 93 pump + meth.

My best run was a 12.2 @ 111, 0.43 reaction and 1.7 60'.

Now I need to actually tune the car for the meth and get it deep in the 11's.

The 93 in the States was probably worse quality than our 87 here. It was AWFUL. I had to get rid of SO much timing to run it on that fuel down there that I never had any issues with on our fuel up here. Quite a few people have mentioned how bad the fuel is.

It varies a lot from company to company. I buy all my gas in the US but only from Mobile, Shell and Irving tend to make my car knock happy.

I was only buying from Shell given that they're reputed to be the best here and Shell 91 in Canada (Ontario, anyways) is THE gas to have (0% ethanol, etc.). It's what all the classic car guys use, etc. I use Petro 94 here, and I have had WAY better success with it than the Shell crap I bought down there. My car was knocking more than a Mormon in a new neighbourhood.

I'l have to try Mobile next time I'm down there!
