YouTube - Kiggly Racing 8.558 - Quickest FWD Car Running Gas The Story: Unseasonably warm weather (70F) convinced my local track to open an unscheduled test and tune Wednesday. We got four passes in, the first was just a tuning pass 1st/2nd gear pull. Three full passes: Pass two: 1.3648 60'...

Is anybody going to this? It is $100 and I think it starts at 3pm. As long as my converter shows up today, I'm planning to be out there making the best of some cool weather and a prepped track. Hopefully some 8.40's will be possible if the track hooks well enough. If anybody is out, come by...

Is anybody making it out for TNT tomorrow? I think I'm going if the weather holds. Right now it says 'few showers' until 3pm, and then clearing up for the evening. The track is probably going to be junk because of the rain, but I'm going to see if I can beat my bests from earlier this year...

Testing on Oct 20th, I finally clicked off an 8-second pass. The video isn't super exciting, but still shows the pass and what the car looks like. It has a ton left in it for next season. I found an intercooler restriction that was holding the car back (BADLY) and this pass was on an...

I'm looking for a thrust bearing (torringon) set for a GM turbo 350 trans. I hear the bearing between the pump and direct drum is about the size I'm looking for. Does anybody know a place I can find this locally or within 1 day shipping? Thanks, Kevin

My second round qualifying run from the Mitsu-Subaru Showdown that was at Norwalk Sunday (June 24th). This was 3rd in the Mitsu Quick 8 class. http://kigglyracing.com/media/9_39_kiggly_racing.wmv By all accounts, this was a shakedown pass. I'm pretty sure I have another full second in the...

I'm testing my car for the second time this year tomorrow night. Feel free to stop by and say hi if you're out. I'm there with the white FWD dsm with wheelie bars, should be pretty easy to spot. I'm doing some cam timing sweeps at low boost (~25psi), but hopefully it will kick out a high...

My friend Wayne, with his red 3000gt, ran against a Black/Gray 4x4 truck wednesday at Milan. The truck was running 11's. He thinks it was a GM truck. Wayne wants to know what his timeslip was because he got booted on that run for no safety equipment and they wouldn't give him the timeslip or...
