In other news:



well a month or 2 ago i entered my car into a Sponsorship contest for a free set of V2 drag wheels and skinnies.. (the field was about 20 or so realllllly good cars and owners)

Well the winners were anounced and sadly i was not one of them. But i lost out to a Great bunch of guys!!

i got a PM saying the following..

Jonathan, thanks for being supportive of the winning applicants. Hopefully you will have an opportunity to be in the spotlight next time. You were one of the few that were in the final five applicants. That being said, we're still here to help the grassroots racer so if you need any help with anything this season don't hesitate to call on me. I'll do what I can to help.

At least it's nice to know i'm being looked at. This year i'll be racing and having fun with my car as usual and by defalt i might get some help with this damn rig..

 

[Pootie]

i was bored, so i tried to mount the gates on the manifold for shits n giggles. Well the left gate is havin fitment issues. i think the Precision gate is just too beefy.

 

[got traction]

keep us updated on the precision wastegates. I've heard that they allow alot of boost creap
