John,

I think that M5 is a bud of yours? Is it running stock; tuned; or sprayed? Just curious. We had a quick run.

Jordan and myself had a few runs since we are the same power.... Needless to say Torque Boy gets the cake vs torgless wonder.
We'll get longer runs to really open it up and so Torgless wonder can redeme itself....
Fun as hell though!

Lexus is a worldwide brand now. Not just America.

I was behind him both times - we didnt really formally start. From what I could tell, I could stay on his tail both times fairly well.. but not sure if he was at WOT, etc.. so i'm curious

If I'm not mistaken he has headers and an exhaust but that's about it. Where he holds a huge advantage over probably everyone else is that he can drive! He's a real old school racer that's been racing from back in the early 90's! He's bad azz...

Conroy car is only running a flash chip.At some point he was running spray.He claims he been running later because of a check eng. code.But as Jerome stated he's old school which basically means he never reveal his secrets..

Terry turn me to on to a company that builds TC.For a really good price.Which I was no longer going to do after my mishap with Conroy's car..What ever money I had saved up to buy a TC is pretty much gone, for cost of repairs .But thanks to Terry there is a light at the end of the tunnel ..So I'm sending the TC that came out of my original tranny to get a 3200 stall .And I'll be sending my turbo out for repair as well .

Once everything comes back and my old trusty Chris Ty tranny goes back in with the 3200 and the Precision 67.You south Florida boys are in for [B]it[/B...LOL

And also Jordan if you didn't know sir your my new tunner if that's okay with you..

Sounds good Jon. I'm game. Frankly I'll be hitting the rollers again later this week with the new ignition if you want to swing by. My car was hitting a similar miss as you at the track and I think I know what it was...at least for MY car...yours...well...it is strange, but I'm sure we'll get it sorted out.

I need to find somewhere local (WPB) that has some pretty in-depth experience with Nitrous. I have a serious leak and a few other things that need to be addressed and I don't have the time or wherewithall to deal with them... if anyone can recommend a shop PLEASE let me know (PM).
