Made a trip to Florida, took the auto train down loaded up ZR1 and rolled into FL 14 hours later. Dave is installing the innerchiller on my car as we speak. I am heading back next weekend to pick it up and meet up with GIO again. Dave has kit installed and is working on the second tank now. It will be the first ZR1 he has done with dual tank setup. I am excited to see the end results and hope others will purchase this kit once I post up IAT temp results. Here are some PICS of the journey. Oh round trip ticket on train $605.

Auto Train was AWESOME

K B Vettin

good stuff. i really can't wait for the sound clip of your ride with your heads & cam!

ss2z06

Good call on the train! I'm glad to hear you got your ride down there. I thought you were going to get the pulley on before. Are you going to put it on before you re-tune? Keep me updated

4evervette

Wow did you and GIO plan on wearing the red shirts together? Thats cute!!!!! GIO doesnt look any where near as furry as I thought he would.

Did you remove your front splitter before putting the car on the autotrain? What did you do to disarm the alarm system on the car so it wouldnt go off? I know they request that so your car isnt dead when you get there. $604 bucks round trip each time? So a total of $1208 bucks to get you and the car down, then you and the car back?


Plus I'm not familiar with Dave and the "inner chiller" option? Is this a new one? Whats the name of Daves shop? Did GIO try to touch you?

narush

Kris - I can't wait to hear it either

SS2z06 - Thanks i could not beat the train deal at all, I am waiting to get heads back and my friend wants to install everything at the same time. So I am being patient rght now.

4evervette - Much appreciated, he jsut finished up installing the larger pump and is now working on the second tank he is rolling along quite well.

I will be posting more pics later on this evening of his progress

narush

I knew you would like that - GIO is pretty buff I would not want to **** him off

Round trip meaning $307.50 each way for a total of $605.00. It is a bargain and if I would have booked it a wekk earlier it would have been almost $100 cheaper.

I did not do anything like that with the car I asked JOSE who loaded my car to keep windows up and it worked out well. I kept the front splitter attached and had no problems.

Hmm i have to let you know the name of his shop, I will post pics and hopefully Dave will chime in about his kit.

I work for Amtrak thanks for keeping my job secure!!! LOL

Cant wait to see what results you get with the new upgrades, im sending my car back down to Florida this week so I can come down and play with GIO over the winter.

Hey GIO you never invited me down to south beach!! What gives?

narush

Your welcome, the gentleman in the pic has worked for Amtrak for 26 years as well

Ahh you will have a great time, South beach is awesome.

Where are you sending your car? Are you transporting it? Or driving it?

gonabite

I dont recognize him where does he work? I used to live and work out of Miami as well.

Im storing it a Redline Motorsports right there in Pompano Beach, so I have something to drive when I come down for long weekends to get away from the NY winter. Im having a transporter pick it up this week.

narush

Sett works in Florida and he is a certifier/trainer. He has been in Florida in 9 months.

Ahh it is so much nicer taking the train if you had the time. But I am suer you already know that.

gonabite

If I lived closer to Lorton I would entertain the idea. However its a 5-6 hour drive for me form NY. Plus the 3 hour drive from Sanford. Id rather just take a 3 hour plane trip and have the car waiting for me.

Back to the subject. How much time are you going to have to drive and data log down there under different conditions? Are you going to have time to get to the drag strip? Or have GIO to bring you out to Krome Ave? GIO knows what Im talking about.

narush

I hear ya and completely understand.

No drag strip time, my logging will be mostly from the drive from Dave's shop to the train. Which is about 2.5 hours drive time. We talked about that I will see how his schedule is this weekend.

Narush... at what point are "WE" taking your car to the track? I'm giving Kyles wheels that were then my wheels that are now kyles wheels again soon. We can stick them on the car if need be. Sooo????
