If you have any questions about fire suppression, I'd recommend reaching out to Firepro here on the forums. He owns the "Hell Snake", and is a specialist in the field.

As of now , in SMG - here is the top lap times ;

 

Thunderhill Raceway Park - 2.866 miles - Addison Lee - 2:02.674

Sonoma Raceway - 2.520 miles - Addison Lee - 1:49.610

Laguna Seca Raceway - 2.238 miles - Addison Lee - 1:40.738

 

 

Congrats to Russ Peterson in Menlo Park , California who just bought a White 2007 SGT for me to build into a SPEC MUSTANG ! ( another SGT goes racing ! ) :yahoo::superhero:

 

If it's the same Addison I know his Dad owns Borelli Motor Sports and VERY active in racing since he was a kid.

 

He's REALLY good based upon what I've seen the few times I saw him drive and what I've been told.

I'm taking 07SGT2425 over to Borelli's tomorrow to get a tune done on it . They bought up TPS Motorsports and now have their dyno and employees there . They are the ones that tuned my car ( 07SGT4755 ) for the SPEC MUSTANG class rules which state that you're only allowed to have 315 RWHP and 325 RWTQ . I'm sure that they will film this tune as well and post it on you tube .

Cool stuff. Congrats to all who get to play! I need to get back into that someday. I used to run a 1986 Mustang in SCCA AS. Still hold track record at Woody Creek Raceway in Aspen, CO (but that's not that impressive as the track has been sold and is privately owned now. SCCA hasn't been able to race there in years!)

 

Me getting ready to put the hurt on that poor Camaro at Woody Creek in 1992 I think:

Got a sound level check at Laguna Seca yesterday - got a 90.4 db which meets the 92 db requirement ( pretty quiet if you ask me for a race car ) . Not bad for having the Borla long tube headers w/X pipe and Bullitt mufflers ( GTB ) .

They are Jongbloed 700 series wheels ( Ryan did the set on my car in a silver finish to match the stripes on the car especially for me ) which are an 18" x 10.5" with a 45mm offset all around. They are the official/required wheel for SPEC MUSTANG racing in SCCA .

Thanks Mark - now I just have to get the driver back up to snuff ! :shift: need some seat time !

Yeah, I can understand that.

 

BTW. This thread is starting to get me in trouble. The wife caught me searching for salvage title SGT's. I got "the don't even think about it look". Poop.
