Here is the schedule and Hoopa is back. Hoopa hasn't been run for a few years due to some difficuilty with the organizers, but it's one of the great hills, especially for hp cars.
So many great hills and so little time. I'm going to do at least 2 and maybe a few more depending upon the old racing budget. |

The two guys from Canada in the supercharged Mustang both had good runs at Cascade. One of them set the hill climb record for SM.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5VcgOwkv66o Hope you get that supercharger bolted on your Nissan Grant. Not sure if you would be running the same class as these guys, but I'll be up there chasing these guys. I ran a 1:59 (new SPU record) with a thrown out run, they ran 1:55 (record) and 1:57 in 5 runs. Great competition. Get that blower on Grant. Can't wait for Cascade Lakes. Very different than Hoopa, i.e., more European flavor and a great hill. |

Working on blower details this week. My car with extra 150 HP and torque will be scary. Drove 370z with kit that I'm looking at. Immediate throttle response that threw me into the seat and kept me pinned until I let off the go pedal! My car will be dang scary with HP! Its a lot heaveir than most SSM cars however It will have a ton of instant torque and HP in low RPM trange. Nice thing about 370 Z is they have suspension that can put down the power. Tranny's and drive train are very well designed as well so no real weakness with power upgrade and if I do lightweight flywheel and pullies the weight in the front stays the same. I was faster in my old 175 WHP boxster than last SSM record car at Hoopa. I know the Z as it sits now is faster than that car. So should be fun. |
