Last weekend I drove from The Big Apple, to Savannah,Georgia.... Savannah is a GREAT city... I dont think Ill ever stay in a Ramada "limited" again though LOL........ huge turnover being just off I95

anyhoo

got to the test and tune.... overrevved the motor... and bent two exhaust valves..

Others that are less sane than us talked us into doing a trackside rebuild!!...The Parts we needed were supplied by Bob Sanderson (Performance Imports out of Atlanta)

Bill and I did a valve job on a 3.8Ltr turbo engine in one morning. INstead of our CMP record, we did participate in someof the practice and test and tune..

grid position was 12th.. we got up to 6th then an off put us out of it..

The GT#/cupcars/etc have made our dinosaur (GT1R) car a much bigger dinosaur, those cup cars go like stink.. and we have almost 400 more HP than they do..

In any event here is some video for your enjoyment
