oops.

I havent got to go but I hear that its awesome. The close down the town for the vettes. Alot of prople are going to Hot Springs instead of Eureaka. I know I am. Hot Springs allows burnouts and they have cruises. One of the cruises leads out to Centerville Drag Strip. Thats the cruise Im taking. I'm going down on Friday to autocross. Then on saturday is the car show and after that they cruise to the drag strip. They say that they have AWESOME door prizes. Last year someone got ther rooms paid for for this years show, others got free dinners for 2, tool sets, etc. Im leaving on Friday morning if you guys want to go.

Rhema parking lot but it sucks compared to the Fudrucker cruise in by Target 71st and 169. Why do all of the cruise ins fight over Tuesday night? If you took the cars from all 3 shows(backyard burger 101st memorial?)and put them together it would be one giant event. Fudruckers filled up today, I saw 3 different 671 blown cars out there. Lots of cool street rods and muscle cars. We need to meet up there for a burger on a Tuesday night.

I talked to one of the guys involved in this weekends Hallett event. From what I understand Friday is playday and the only day we could get on the track(150.00). I plan on going out saturday instead to watch the cars run for points. Corvettes only both days.

I want to leave between 10-11 and head back home around 5. The UFC fight will be on at my house Saturday night if anyone is interested in watching it. I will grill some food if everyone throws in a few bucks. Let me know whos coming.

hey sic, did you decide on a clutch? i've narrowed it to the textralia 700, the spec 3+, or possibly the new cartek (going to call them tomorrow). wondering which you are thinking about.

You guys can drive my Tex 700 this weekend so you can get a good feel. The pedal is not to heavy but it does like to chatter a bit. Drive it before the fight starts Saturday. I have some yard bird marinating in jerk seasoning already. Let me know Steve

Have you guys considered the LS7 clutch? I've heard good things on here. One guy took his Tex out because of the chatter and went to an LS7. Just an idea for you

I just had Randy put in a LS7. Very happy. Had it in for my first track day of the season at Hallett a couple weeks ago and it was great.

Complete package including bolts for $443 DELIVERED to my house in Tulsa from Scoggins-Dickey:

http://www.sdparts.com/product/SDLS7...cFlywheel.aspx

I asked them nicely and they even threw in the bearing for free.

Supporting vendor. Hell of a deal.

Make sure you aslo replace your slave and install a remote bleeder.
