Do you race your Mazda down in Epping cause so far my Mazda 3 is the only one that I've seen down there so far? I'd like to see another 3 to represent down there.

No I don't race mine... not really enough done to it... but I like to go and watch. What part of NH are you from? Perhaps we should meet up sometime to talk cars... I've hung out with Ramosdominicano before, and we're both up for meeting new 3 drivers anytime. Lemme know if you are interested. I'd love to see your turbo setup.

I've raced it stock before. sometimes it's kinda embarassing when you're almost the slowest car out on the track but it's fun. I live in Gilmanton/Belmont area. About 4 miles from NHIS in Loudon. So anytime your out and about just let me know and we'll compare notes.

I'm only about 1 hour from NHIS. I go there every September for the NASCAR race. You'll have to keep in touch with me and let me know when you head to NE Dragway again this summer... do you usually hit street nights, or are you an Import Wars racer?

 

[scorcher]

I usually race on Fri. nights but sometimes I go to Import Wars just to watch though not race. I've entered my car there in the car shows twice but only won one 2end place for the Mazda class.

 

[zoom_craigy_zoom]

Cool man. I have never entered my mazda in the shows or races, but I used to be part of NEJBODY which is a cavalier/sunfire club that was pretty dominant in the earlier days... but now its kind of widdled away. I *may* enter a show or two this summer if I get some more stuff done to the car, but I'm not sure. But, you'll have to get ahold of me when you head up there on friday nights for street night. I'd love to meet up with you and talk and watch you put the hammer down. Sounds like fun.

 

[scorcher]

Before the turbo back in Oct of 05 I put down 15.5 @ 91MPH with snow tires on. I didn't race this past year just watched cause I had some problems with my engine blowing on me when I installed the turbo so I never had a chance to race with the turbo. So I had NSN build me a race ready block with lower compression Supertech pistons and Eagle rods. I've put too much money in this car It should be interesting to say the least.

 

[zoom_craigy_zoom]

Was the 15.5 on a stock engine? No exhaust or intake or anything?

 

[scorcher]

No, I had Draxas high flow cat back, AEM cai, Sr motorsports pulleys and lightweight flywheel with ACT clutch , and TWM short throw. With better tires I'm sure I could of got possible low 15s. After turbo I sold pulleys and I'm still trying to sell my flywheel cause I don't want it with my turbo.
