Where's the competition?

[ScaryFast]

Saturday night, a few friends and I went to the local drag strip (Speed world, Az) because we caught wind of an import -vs- domestic competition. It was kind of sad really. Neither side was very well represented. The only imports that showed were the typical Honda garbage and a few WRx's. They only managed to muster up 16-14 second runs. the domestics were just as slow. There were a few impressive runs like the SVO mustang (2.3ltr turbo) that ran a mid 10 and a '68 Charger that ran a respectable 13 without as much as a chirp from the tires or a rumble from the exhaust.

I cant wait till I am done with my 240.....

what are you doing to your 240?

Right now it is a stock block L24 with an E88 head. 6-1 header into 2.5" custom mandrel bent exhaust. Triple Dellortos on a port matched cannon manifold. Crane Cams XR 3000 ignition with a PS 92 coil. I installed a five speed that was in a '76 280z that I picked up for parts and am running 4.07 gears.

I'm waiting for my new cam to show up (should be this week) and also currently building up a L28 that I am going to swap over the head and other stuff over to give me a bit more displacement. I've have also rebuilt my suspension and plan on installing some coil overs later on.

There is probably some other little stuff that I forgot....but that sums it up.
