Kevin Patten Posted March 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2014 Remember THIS COMING SATURDAY is the DYNO DAY !!! Weather outlook is good - clear and in the 70's possibly 80 ! I have the 20 slots filled and showing 55 people attending the BBQ - so if your on the fence you better get signed up for the BBQ lunch (I'd hate to see someone go hungry).

Are all the slots full for the dyno?? As you can see by the top quote from earlier today, dyno slots are full. However, you can still come spectate and enjoy the BBQ. PM Albino500 if you will join the BBQ so they can prepare according to head count. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Patten Posted March 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2014 Very much looking forward to this event... Just to sweeten the pot some (as if it wasn't awesome enough) I just found out that the BBQ lunch which is being co-sponsored by Borelli Motor Sports and Racers Insurance Services is bringing in Caribbean BBQ Jerk Chicken Chef Robert of Coconuts and Caribbean Restaurant to do the cooking. Best of all Robert is a Mustang owner!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

treynor Posted March 14, 2014 Report Share Posted March 14, 2014 Welcome to Team Shelby Treynor, I see you just joined today. Thanx in advance for bringing the CJ I was a Watson Racing last summer, and got to see and number of the Cobra Jets in various stages of completion. Cool stuff! Tom It was quite a coincidence. I needed to get some drag slicks mounted/balanced Saturday, and called Borelli. They mentioned there was a Shelby meet on Saturday, and a simple internet search brought me to this board. The SCJ one heck of a car. I've had it up to Sacto just once so far, just after the rain last week. Couldn't get traction off the line, and launched at 2000 RPM, but still managed a 9.0 @ 153 (!). It should be a solid high/mid 8's car once I get a tire/suspension combination dialed in. And, it's SO well engineered and set up from the factory, you could (seriously) drive it to a low 9 with 1 hand on the wheel. Ford has done an amazing job. Looking forward to meeting everyone on Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fat Boss Posted March 15, 2014 Report Share Posted March 15, 2014 Another great day with the TS PCR crew. Everything's always first rate with you guys and gals! Thanks to all who made this a great time possible. There was a lot of activity and they wasted no time getting all the cars through. Good work! It was cool to see the variety of cars hit the dyno. From the Comet to the Cobra Jet, the Bosses to the tricked out GT500's and GT350's it was a ton of fun to watch all the action. I was happy with the 415 HP that my Boss threw down. Though, looking at the chart it appears that was just a blip at the very end as it bounced off the 7500 rev limiter. It seemed to flatten off the HP curve at just over 400 for the last 1500 RPM's though. Torque was 355, staying right about there from just over 3k RPM through 5k RPM, tapering off to about 290 at redline. I'm guessing it was 75* at the time.
