San Diego, Temecula, Orange Area (Corona, Riverside, LA & Imperial County)!

If you guys from the south are looking to cruise up, my friends are leading a cruise at the Chevron and roll up at 7:15 sharp -- 7737 Balboa Ave. That place is also e85 friendly.

Should definitely see a Mystichrome Termi, White Termi, new Red Hellcat, and probably 10 others. Most of them have like 700rwhp, but they won't call you names if you're not there yet.

we may end up doing the tour d orange rally on New Year’s Day though. It’s a pretty early rally with hundreds of cars.

So I talked to RPG last week and was told my engine would be ship really soon. All that was left that needed to be done was basically finishing the assembly and pressure test the motor. Unfortunately the engine didn’t pass RPG’s pressure test. I was inform it was an easy fix that had to do with the head gasket. Engine will get new gaskets, reassembled, and pressure tested again.

Im grateful they let me know there is a slight delay. I’m also glad when they saw an issue, they got right on it and began fixing it, instead of just sending the long block out and not worrying about it. Great way to take care their customers!!

Still on the fence about getting rearend gears, but seems like I’ll be going with 3.55’s.
Now, taking bets on how much rwhp this thing will be putting down and at what psi..

I'll make you a sweetheart deal on my 3.55's as I'll be swapping in 4.09's and a Torsen T2-R. I'd be doing that now, but I blew up my transmission Sunday at ACS, so maybe February or so.

Just purchased Co2 kit to spool the turbos up quicker. Also thinking about methanol just for S & G….

What’s everyone’s New Years resolution? What are some plans and goals you’re shooting for? Losing weight, new job, new rims and tires…lol

anyone watching college playoffs or NFL/NBA

I was hoping the chargers would pull it off, but typical, predictable San Diego teams…..cant get out of their own way…

Bro, tell me about it….
I’ve got nothing but chips on the front fender & hoods

 

[Mghoward74]

My resolution is to lose weight add muscle, faster car, get more money, get my start up business moving.

I want to get a sports chassis truck…lol.

They got out of their own way, all the way to LA

My resolution is to learn how to fiberglass and weld. I know my Iggles won't go far, but considering they were a 4 win team the year previous, making the playoffs is a nice sign that the new Head Coach and QB might have been the right choice.

I don’t see how Jalen Hurts is going to win games throwing for 150 yards & running for 60 yards. He’ll be a 1k yard rusher AND with his frame he definitely won’t last over 2 years. Who’s the eagles QB coach?

I can say they will get more support and better media coverage in LA vs. in SD. At least they got a good QB…
