Had a great weekend at the track even though my own personal car my 1997 Eagle Talon was suffering from some clutch release issues I still managed to beat both of my own PB's for Mph and ET with a 9.6@157Mph. Plus there was a lot of friends there running there cars also and most of them set new PB's for there cars to, such as Justin running a 10.8 in his first outing in his 67 Acadian, Ty running a 11.2 in his 02 Viper, and DJ running a 11.3 in his Shadow. Awesome weather felt more like aug then oct being 25 above on Sat. Also if anyone has any vids of my car I would appreciate it if you would contact me as I only have 1 or 2 of my 9 second passes on tape as we were all racing and some races didn't get recorded. Thanks Ron

Just want to also give a huge thank you to all my sponsors for helping me out this year I never got the results I wanted but I think the Mph and low boost level tell the tail that theres much more in this combo.
I was running only .024 gap on my plugs with my old AEM CDI and I should mention even running Ethanol I am making another 200+ hp and still running .028 gap with no miss fires thanks to Craigs great M&W CDI and COP system. (plugs come pre gapped at .028)
Thanks To
JNZ Tuning (Erik and Paul)
Comp Turbo (Justin)
Sparktech (Craig)
Supertech (Willy)
English Racing (Arron, Lucas, and Jeff) Great bunch of guys and helped me with some great technical info, and I should mention never knew me from mud when I phoned up and went well out of there way to help {thumbup}

Yeah but you know how much wrenching I did in the last week, I don't feel like ripping the trans out for nothing I'm confident the throw out bearing is gone. And you can't pick up one at NAPAYou know Ron the Calgary track is still open
