IMO, this thread is pointless until registration is closed for GAP 2004.....
More than half the people talking trash won't register, so what is the point?
PontiacGT2K

I'm going to register this year.
Why the negative attitude?

Why the negative attitude? Because for the past 3 years, I have seen people talk trash about going to GAP "no matter what" and then when the time comes, only 50-100 people step up. I was one of them 3 years ago, but have come through the past 2 years. I am not saying that this person or that person won't register, but in general, more than 75% of the people who put up a challenge in this thread won't be there. Sure, make a list, but wait until registrations are confirmed (in 8 months) to do so......
I don't know, maybe Wayne's challenge will get some folks fired up, but the past 2 years, the people who could really compete with him were already there.....

I hope to be in group 2, but put me down for group 3.
Best time was a 15.8 at Milan with no traction with bad mounts, transmission, and 2 spark plugs.
Now I have ported polished heads, intakes, custom SLP exhuast, plugs are fixed, some minor fuel upgrades and a better transmission.

I'll just drop it from a C-17...with a parachute of course. The keys will be in the ignition. We'll see how the scheduling works out. If I don't get an OTS class date before the picnic, I'm there...but I'm guessing that I'll go to OTS in April...which will put me just finishing up around the picnic time and traveling to UPT/moving all of my household stuff. I really doubt I'll make it, but you never know.

hey how do you guys recaluculate your 1/4 times to sea level??
95-GT
11-17-2003, 09:14 PM
Take your time, add the elevation above sea level you are, divide by 22.82, then subtract 12, and thats how many tenths you take off.
Knappy1
11-17-2003, 09:59 PM
Most tracks give you the sea level conversion factors. I got mine from www.lacr.net
Altitude Correction
LACR is 2,710 ft. above sea level.
To figure the altitude factor the formula is as follows:
ET: multiply your et (at LACR) by .97
MPH: multiply your mph (at LACR) by 1.03
This will give you the ET & MPH at sea level.

OK, THAT'S IT! I've had it! It's time to throw down AMRAAM style! I'm making a challenge to any and all of the whiny turbocharged wannabe losers on this board who keep ragging on superchargers. It's time to sack up boys! You keep going on about how turbo is better and you're going to kick our collective a$$es. Prove it. Show up to GAP with a setup that isn't ghetto rigged and produces results. If you can beat the best time laid down be the fastest SC car there (no nos, boost only) then I will personally shake your hand and congratulate you. The only way to earn respect in this game is to make results, and no one has done it yet. Don't pull a craig99SE2 and say you're going to do it and then never show up. Dont keep making excuses, 'cause I'm tired of your sh!t. If you can't prove your'e right then shut the hell up!!!!:rage:

What is everyone's malfunction? All I said is: I'm coming for you.
Translation: Here I am, I have a new method, here's hoping I do as well, maybe even better, maybe not. What are you reading into that?
How the heck is that construed as anything more??
What have I ever done to NOT earn people's respect around here? Yeah, I speak up for myself, your point?
I've test pigged a turbo, I'm about to test pig a transmission with a pre-loaded slip differential, I've helped get companies to notice this platform. I'm working on Delrin motor mounts and limiters. What more do you want?
Everyone in this thread has talked trash, I make an announcement that I'm going to try too and people take it personally. wtf
I think I'm about through with these boards and the GAGT. I think once I get the last few parts (heads, LIM, UIM, TB, tranny, Delrin mounts, limiters) I have one order and have on hand installed I'm calling it quits. If I can't say or do anything without someone jumping me, it's pointless. I'm not going to spend a **** load of money on a lower when all anyone can do is cry when I think I'll do better than someone else. So **** it.
BTW, if you haven't noticed, I do have dyno results, I don't have 1/4's yet because the car has been under continuous building for the last year.

Chill out man I just think Kman was asking who you had in mind. This thread is just for some friendly competition for those involved, as it has been in the years past.. It's not a ****in or popularity contest, don't take so much offense??

personally i take offense to it also though ice, aaron just wants to get on these boards and slam everyone for any idea that wasnt his. I think he is just a lil butt hurt that me and phantom are doing something other than what everybody else has. Maybe some of the moderators should step in and realize that aaron is always talking $h!7 so how come hes never warned.
I thought this site was for people interested in making a Grand Am fast, or look nice, and the point is to talk to some other guys about what they are doing with there car so you can get some ideas also. If So....
How come when me and spy and our crew posts some pics of my new setup people come flaming us for it. Thas a bunch of crap, listen to your mom aaron your disrespectful. If you dont got nothing nice to say then dont say anything!

I think some are on the super defensive and take questions and discussion points as slamming when it's really not. Lighten up, chill out, it's an internet forum.
Some are taking it like someone is making fun of them in the lunch room at elementary school and want to run home and cry to mommy. If you guys can't offer constructive criticism and also receive it then boo ****in hoo, grow up.
Learn how to use the report post button if you think someone is out of line, as it seems a bit dusty.
my .02. feel free to pm/im/call me and discuss as this is uber *offtopic* and I apologize

Be sure to notify me if you have any problems from anyone in the future. That's what moderators are for, along w/ the "report post" button.
I will side w/ iceman in saying that this thread is meant for pure enjoyment and playful challenges. I don't want to have to start deleting entire posts left and right... :nono:

Phantom, please understand that my first post wasn't aimed at you. If there's anyone on this board who seems to know what they're doing with a turbo it's you, and the shop you're dealing with seems to know what they're doing as well. If you go to GAP and beat me I'll be genuinely happy.:thumbs:
It's the other a$$clowns here that get my goat. Everyone here knows I don't talk smack. I walk the walk and always back up what I say, because I have a back bone!
Deek, I've read about what you did with the kit, and I looked at the pics. I am very familiar with this car so I can tell a lot from pics. I wasn't flaming YOU in anyway. I saw some problems with your setup and I pointed them out. I have the right to do that. You have the right to defend it also with whatever info you have. However what you and spy did instead was personally insult me and call me names instead of back up your claims with some kind of proof. Everyone on this board also knows that I don't take insults lying down. Say what ever you want about my car, but if you insult my intelligence... IT'S ON!

The question people should be asking is, "Will a GAP 2004 take place?" Nothing has been said about the event yet.:confused:
phantom505
01-28-2004, 09:54 PM
I think it's too big to pass up. Even if they have to up the fees a little I think most would pay.
If GAP doesn't happen there then maybe it could get done somewhere else.
kubiache
01-28-2004, 10:43 PM
^ Exactly...so either way, there WILL be a GAP. It just depends on whether or not it's gagt.com driven.

Now going south, but maintaining distance from the general Philadelphia area = no problem.

We should really save this talk for a seperate thread, and only IF it turns out the Gurus can't make it for GAP. Then it'll take someone responsible enough to get the planning going.

01-29-2004, 09:08 AM
i like the idea of 2 GAP's......southern and northern....
it is just really too difficult for a married guy with 1 two year old kid and one on the way to go all the way to michigan!! :(
different times of the year would be good also.....
just cuz i am a 22 yr old family man doesnt mean i cant have my fun too! lol

As long as the trash talking is limited to FUN trash talking and everyone knows that if you're called out, it's in FUN.
I'm really eager to see Schweppe, Babalouie, and the newly turbocharged guys make their runs.

What did you get your 14.8 run with?
kubiache
01-29-2004, 12:37 PM
^ CAI, S&S, SLP, and drag radials.
Also, as far as when to have GAP...since nobody knows at this point...if it doesn't conflict with school schedules, an August GAP might not be a bad idea since the cam should be available in July (in theory). Not that GAP needs to be schedule around a car part, but a lot of people might like to show off some killer times for all of us to see, and the cam will make a world of difference to some of you faster guys.
...and maybe that's a rediculous thought.
Avsguy01
01-29-2004, 12:41 PM
i guess drag radials make a big difference. I dont think my car would do 14.8 with everything ive done to it. Im thinking 15.0
