22nd ANNUAL DSM/EVO/GTR SHOOTOUT

Mark your calendars gentlemen!

http://highboostforum.com/forum/sho...OTOUT?s=59c2b366c4bf250f85ee8dba638e0a74

I can't wait!

This may be the first time in 5 years that I can't make it. Hoping to spend the summer travelling after school is done, so I may not be around.

Planning to attend and participate.

Ghislain

I would love to make this year my 1st of many, I know my car will be ready to make the trip and maybe...just maybe make it onto the DVD (even if its just in the background)

hope I didn't just jynx myself

Going to Ohio is traveling, there isn't anything better to see than hundreds of fast cars so don't both with the rest

I'll be there once again.

Spending 4 months in Europe - including enjoying the Autobahn, the Nurburgring and going to all the famous tracks and museums - is the kind of traveling I had in mind Not that I won't miss the Shootout if I can't be there.

Europe is an experience that's for sure. Almost no matter where you go or what you do, it'll be an experience.

I will be attending this year with a couple of friends.

If my car is on the road this year, I'll be going down. As for right now I don't plan on putting her tires on asphalt in 2014, but we'll see.

Pick up your Purse and show up.

Ghislain

I'm hoping to make it down there. I'd like to have my Lancer running Turbo by then too.

With sandra in school... Is a money thing for us. If we can aford it then we will be there... But we wont be spending alot of money a fancy restourants... Gotta save it for beer and racing.

Pretty much have time booked off just depends if I can get the car not only up and running but all the bugs shook out before Aug

Ron, I don't think we can accept another no-show from you! We need some Canadian representation in the Q16 class!

Hopefully she'll be done and good to go. If not, come down in the Viper and have some fun.

Says the guy who is going to europe instead of the shoot out!

As long as I don't get run over by my car again, I will be there as a spectator again!

Requested my vacation time for shoot out.. But wether We can afford it??

I'll be staying at the track this year, buddy of mine from Ohio is renting an RV for the weekend.

Thats ok... We never expect the quebecers to stay with the rest of the Canadians! Lol

Burn!!!

How else am I supposed to retain my "distinct society" status?

I'm trying to drag a few of us northerners down. Hopefully kyle can make it this year so that the dsm community can finally see his car. Theres a girl up here with an evo 9 that im trying to convince to come with us too.

I sadly cabt make it this year but ikl be at cayuga prob gonna rent track with jerry. Open invitation

I'll be there again regardless of what happens.

No excuses.

This.

I think us quinte west guys should go on a tour this summer. Day trip to cuyuga...and a few tracks that way. And a day trip to calabogie!

oh wow so you guys are actually going to make it to cayuga, I will believe it when I see it!

Yes Kyle we are going to rent the track for sure .

2014 SO Topic here!!!

So we started a ShootOutSavings investment! looks like right now we have atleast enough to drive 1 car down.. Race.. and sleep in the hatch! So its safe to say we will be there.

Come again?

Yo, "Ike" as per Wryan's request. "Come again"???

Moi...

And again! lol

Girl with an Evo IX?

Pics or ban!

^ agreed......and pics of the car would be nice also....

I saw a chick with a white evo up in barrie, but I think it was a VIII, IIRC.

Her name is sam. Her car was just featured in the latest pasmag tuner battlegrounds or something like that. I'm sure I can get pics of the car but id have to ask her first. She said she bought it from quebec few few years back with a salvage title and rebuilt the whole thing with her boyfriend.

https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?...t.100007268132739&type=1&theater

mmmmhmm

Holidays booked!

I will be there for sure. I already have the time booked. I just hope the car is ready

I just ordered a Garrett GTX3076r. It should be here next week.

I will most likely be racing but we will see how the car is running.

I just did a full vinyl wrap in Matte Pearl blue with a satin finish. It looks pretty sweet considering I have never wrapped anything before. I will post pics after I finish it this weekend. I ran out of time last weekend. I just need to finish the bumpers.

Sweet Tim! I've already taken the time off as well...can't wait to see the car...

I am aiming for 11s this year.

lower 13's is my goal, but I'd take 12.99

I plan to make it this year also, as long as I don't run myself over again. I don't have the scooter insured this year yet, so probably have to come in the van. On the plus side, maybe I can convince the Mrs. to tag along.

Does it say RTM on the van?

Just on door magnets

does it have a bed in the back or a parts store? lol

What did you have in mind? I PREFER to be paid in cash..

$20 is $20.

AHAHAHA!! calling me out eh? is the cash for parts or service?

I don't mind getting paid for my service, LOL...

reminds me of the other day, was at the gas station, had a case of beer on the passenger seat. This good looking blond with huge tits leaned into the window with her boobs on display and said: "hey old timer, ...interested in trading beer for sex?"

I thought for a moment, then asked her: "depends...what kind of beer you got?"

^ LOL good one

NIIIICE!

Win!!!

So who is in for sure? Are you staying at plantation again?

I'm there, camping at the track.

I'm down for staying at the plantation, anyone have the Info for booking it?

Also looking for a roommate to split a room with...

Should mention I'm camping in an RV so anyone wants to stop in for a drink will be welcome

obviously

Should take my reservation in the next few days.

You can visit their official website for some info; or take our word as a decent, easy gow'n Motel that is out in a nice quiet spot and 'bout 20 minutes drive from Norwalk.

Been staying at the plantation for the past 8 or 10 years. All I have to say is bring your party hat or a nice and bright Hawaiian shirt!!!

Ghislain

Oh yeah; http://www.plantationmotel.com/

I dont even think its 10 minutes from norwalk.

But when you go thru the border... Bring a printed copy of the hotel booking, some sorta flyer for the shootout, proof of where you work.. The American border police are bullies. Almost didnt make it thru.

This year guys... During the first day of Dynos... We should park our cars at Buschers first and then walk to that resturuant for BACON GRAVY!

Hmmm, I crossed at the 1000 islands last year at 3am and they asked where I was going, I said the dsm shootout in Ohio, officer simply said have a safe trip and handed my card back.

On the Monday Aug 18th will be my 40th b day! I will party like a rock star

I dropped the ball.... Big time, I called 8 different motels and the only place that has vacancy is the plantation.... But it would be just shy of $600 US for the weekend... FML

Holy sh!t. I haven't booked yet either, but that sounds like TRIPLE what we have paid in past...or more....

We are going to NY City for a weekend and paying a lot less than that for Motels....

When I called they (the plantation) told me the smallest place for rent was the 2 bed room... Hense the price.

There's plenty in the area cheaper than that. From past experience I would expect between $120-150/night

I've stayed in the Best Western, Super 8 and Econolodge, rooms were decent, BW being the cleanest by far. You don't spend much time in the motel anyway. Don't forget if you are a CAA member to mention it, most places will give you a 5-10% discount.

expedia

Look a bit further away if everything close is taken. Nothing at the plantation is worth that price. We had a cabin and that was 80 a night.

Ok.. i just called.. Im in a double room. Beside Guilliume I think he said?? And my total is $358 for 4 nights... Check in on thursday... Leave on monday... Drink and race the whole time in between!

My buddy reserved an RV that sleeps 10 and currently there are a couple open spots, so if anyone really needs a place to stay, give me a shout.

Sleeps 10 as in once everyone's passed out on the floor or properly sleeps 10? Either way that's one massive trailer!

It's a 32 footer with 2 slide outs.

sh!t I did not book either. Faaawkk. I better look into it

Anyone maybe want to share the 2 bdrm?

Yes pm me

Looks like I am going to miss again this year. I didn't book early enough, and the new format just doesn't work for me, ever since they added the extra day to the event. I would be interested in the Friday and the Sunday, but have no interest in the Saturday events, so I would need to either spend a lot of time and money and sit around for a day doing nothing, or else make the very long drive for ONLY the Sunday of drag racing. I would have considered that if I still had the scooter insured, but I did not insure it this year, as last year I only rode it about 3 times....and $200. in insurance every time you turn the key is just ridiculous.

I called last night and there are 20 rooms left. I booked mine.

http://www.plantationmotel.com

Whoo hooo! im excited!

BIRTHDAY ROOFIES!!!!

I'll be there!

You are going to roofie me for my birthday? It will be my 40th b day on Aug 18th

Hey! Me too!!! Well not that 40 part

So come to Ohio!

Ya, come to Ohio so you can celebrate!!!

I'll buy you guys a Joe Louis and will slap a candle on it for ya two.

Merde. Their is no Joe Louis in 'Merica so I'll use twinkies

no Joe Louis? we'll have to smuggle some.

Just don't bring Kinders, they'll lock you up if they find them.

Thought you French guys were all about May West's and Pepsi.....

No it's all about Joe Louis et les Pepsi pour mon petit déjeuner.

Les Rosettes de Vachons are better but Pepsi is still good.

Quebec is the only place I've ever seen that pretty much every corner store...I mean "dep" has curd cheese for sale at the cash, more popular snack than chocolate bars or chips. Kinda like the slimjims of the states.

Mmmmm curd cheese. Well We have Rieds Dairy here in Belleville.. So theres curd arpund every corner here too!.. I could live on Curd!

Ok got to ask, is anybody going that is not taking a DSM. I would like to go but the 5000k is to much because I am not going to have everything done to the car to be ready.

Im taking my lancer

FTFY.

Well, made my mind up... I'm going.

This will probably be my last shootout for a while, what with becoming a dad in 5 months and all.

I know plenty of dads who make it to the shootout.

New dads?

Traveling with a <1 year old is nightmarish.

You'll have to come up with another excuse for 2016

Traveling more then 15 mins with any child is a nightmare and gets worse more children you throw in mix.

are we there yet?

Oh, how I love the single life!

I must be lucky, cause I drove to Nova Scotia, around half the province, then back again with a 1 year old and a 4 year old, and they were good the whole time...

anyway, I'm going to Nova Scotia again this year for my best friend's wedding, and can't afford to go to the shootout, and then to Nova Scotia the following weekend...even if I could afford it, the driving would kill me. I had a blast last year and it saddens me deeply that I can't make it this year...

We'll post pics for ya!!!

Ghislain

I went to PEI 2 weeks before the shootout last year, almost 6000km's in about 3 weeks, that was more than enough to suite me for a while.

Anyone staying at the plantation interested in splitting on a cottage?

I might be. Looks like my friends aren't too keen on going any more.

Having some drinks with Ghislain, Jamie and myself this evening. We will be mulling it over. If we go ahead, there may be a few spots left. Cheap if we can get 8 people.

OK sounds good. Keep me posted.

Passport should be here on the 12th for me.

Anyone still have room available or wanting to split a place at the plantation?

Salomon should be back from his "European Vacation" soon. He is a die hard DSMer and would not miss this for the world.

Chime him up!!!

Ghislain

Hey fuckers...

You all P.U.M.P.E.D for the SHOOTOUT!!?!??!?

If not... watch this kick ass fukcing video.

It will get you fukcing amped up!!!!

Video.

Fukcing watch it.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CqYcyChjSX4



Stephen...

I'll split a room with you if you want.

Ballz!!!

How many of the Pussies in here will not pick up their "skirtz"!!! Lame excuses I want not to hear!!!

Moi

As long as the dsm runs, I'm going to be there.

Well if I manage to break the 2g.. Then were throwing all my goodies on Sandras 1g and trailer'n it!

Wonder If I can get a good set of new tires for a good price down there?
Maybe Ill get TireRack to ship a set of Ventus v12 Evos to the plantation! There on sale for 69 us.

You'll get substantially better deals on tires down there! But if you mount them and drive them back, make sure you scratch the little red and yellow dots off the sides so they don't nail you on duty

I still don't know if I am going. Probably won't decide till a couple of days before, Lol

just waiting on my passport.
Anyone from the KW-London area up for cruising down on thursday?

After 48 hours you can claim $800 tax free

Ah is it only 48? I thought it was 72.. though most of you should be down that long too

I am back now (as of a day and a half ago) but I haven't a penny to my name now so it's really not an option. There's absolutely no way my I'd be able to afford taking my car, but even without a car there's only a very slight chance. Pretty upset about it - first SO missed in 5 years - but such is life

Will have to see if I can find some odd jobs for the next 2 weeks to earn some cash.

Like helping someone do an AWD swap?

Yes, like this Already helped with one and it's still on the road and in one piece

Perhaps we can arrange something. You looking to take your car or get a ride down?

You are a handsome Lad so I'm sure that you could prostitute yourself downtown T.O. Drag Queens can make a bundle in a short time!!!

Ghislain

Well, my car should be roadworthy again before the SO (brake lines, oil leak and tbelt is all) but gas and racing costs make up probably the biggest chunk of SO expenses. I'd love to take the car for the 4th year running but realistically if I'm going it's as a spectator. You have my #? We'll discuss.

You sound like you speak from experience, Ghiz! Any pointers?

Technically speaking, if it's filmed, it's not prostitution, it's acting in a movie. You can add that to your job qualifications

No personal experience but that is what "I heard"...

Ghislain

So lets get a shoot out list going!

1. Jason n Sandra...2g on a trailer... PLantation....thurs to mon.

Me. Same place, same dates driving on my own power!!!

Ditto!

Me, staying with Giz, as long as the passport arrives in time, Thursday to Sunday.

Me, staying at the track. Will have a nice RV with A/C if anyone needs a place to chill for a bit.

I'll be arriving mid Friday.

Will probably see you Friday evening as a few of us intent to do some T&T that night!!!

Ghislain

2G on a trailer (Loose converter doesn't like the long drives). Plantation Thurs-Monday.

Holidays are booked. And by booked I told my business partner I'm leaving Thursday and not back till Tuesday.

It's good to be the boss.

Auto's

Well with the current state of my car doesn't look like the Galant will be going

You got plenty of time. Pick up your purse and get that thing back together.

Ghislain

I did a chassis swap in two weeks... out in the snow and freezing cold.

We swapped short blocks in the parking lot over night

Lol I ain't rushing it.

A registered letter arrived for me today apparently. Sooooo, sounds like I'm 100% in and driving down with the guys on Thursday

Nice! I'm trying to gather up as many Barcelona Red/Wild berry dsm's as possible for a group photo, so be there!

I will. I'll assume you mean once at the shootout?

Sounds like a good idea though. Just let me know when and where.

Ya, at the shootout.

If I don't end up finding a way down would someone pick me up a S.O shirt? Has a VR4 on it this year

FAWWWWKKKK My fuckin' TCU doesn't work after the reflash....

Car runs like a top, just doesn't drive in any gear but 3rd....

There's a guy on tuners selling a full auto setup. Could ask him for his TCU?

I'm meeting him there for my clutch, could pick that up at the same time, seeing as you're towing yours anyway.

Towing mine... yeah right... I'll tow it... and it'll stay on the trailer the whole fracking time....

I'm sure that you can find one and pick it up at the SO.

I'll post on the Quebec UBB for you. Drop a post on the ECMLink Forums.

Ghislain

I think I have one from the old '97. Condition is unknown.

Didn't you say you are towing it already? You could pick it up and install it there.


Or get Ziggy's.

Ziggy;

95/96 are different than 97-99.

I can manually shift it if I needed to, but damn that's a hell of a thing to do.

Quick.... Where can we find a B&m Ratchet shifter in 5 days!!!!!

If you need one to borrow and don't mind paying shipping both ways I'll offer my tcu. Its from an early 95. At least that way I can say a part of my car has made it to a shoot out.

Ryan, Paul would know more, but even though my car was a 97, the drivetrain components were all 95-96 style. I think Paul looked up some numbers and figured they came out of an Expo or something, but they were 95-96 style.

I'm going to try something today Ziggy, but I'll let you know.

I checked with Paul.....all the mechanical components were 95-96 style, but the TCU is 97-99 style, so I don't think it will work for you.

Ziggy

Weather check, should be pretty good.

http://www.theweathernetwork.com/weather/united-states/ohio/norwalk

Ghislain

I knocked on some wood to be sure.

If it ends up raining, just drink till the rain goes away! Haha

It seems we are slowly loosing trailers. If you would like to follow a trailer(murpheys law) We will be stopping in Buffalo right after the border and staying there till noon at the latest. If you wanna ride the rest of the way with me.. Txt me and make plans. Or ill give you my number and then if anything goes wrong...I can pick you up on the way but you have to beable to drive the truck with the trailer.

New tires are on the car and last minute prep work being done, found I almost had a blowout.

Which gasket is that you are using?

What time are you guys leaving? im going to try and meet up again

We are planning to leave Trenton area at 07:00 Thursday morning. That should put us at the Angola Rest Stop on Highway 90 (NY State) between 11:00 and 12:00.

Stephan Tanchak is planning to meet us there.

Ghislain

Actually, I was hoping Giz and the gang can give me a heads up as to when they'll be passing by my area and tell me the two way radio station they are going to be using so I can intercept them.

What's your average highway cruising speed?

EVO X tuned at Neetronics 420 whp 353 tw: http://youtu.be/H9QughA9m6Y

I finally have her ready. I got her tuned last week and fixed the vinyl on the door that was keyed.

Note I just need to figure out how to launch her with the bigger turbo. She bogged hard.

I am planning to leave Thurs eve if anyone wants to convoy.

I assume everyone is going through Buffalo?
I guess I will be the lone ranger again going through Detroit.

Nice Tim!! we are going thru buffalo with a cruising speed of around 120kms maybe higher on the interstates.

120 my ass... some of us who are sane with a trailer will be locking it in at about 110-115km/hr

So far Ive had to keep up with Jamie and his trailet doing way more then 120... It would be nice to do 110! But thats if we can get the car drivers to stick with 110.

Look likes I'll be coming to too, however I will be heading out early Friday morning. I have made absolutely no accomodations as this is last minute.

Do you guys suggest I just camp it out at the track, or rent a room somewhere around town for less?

Glad to hear that you are coming.

Bunch of us are staying at the Plantation Motel in Huron. It's far from being the fanciest Motel and is about 15/20 minutes from the Shop or Track.

Ghislain

I've always stayed at motels in town, it's been fun, lots of talk and drinks in the evening.

I'm staying at the track with my buddy with an RV this year so if you decide to stay at the track feel free to swing over.

Plantation is my recommendation and is where I've stayed the past 4 years. A much quieter place with no real attention from the police. Right beside lots of nice backroads ( ) and a short cruise to town/the other motels where most people stay.

Additionally, there is lots of room for cars/trailers and they don't care if you work on your cars. Kiggly and others also usually stay there, so there's always some good conversations to be had.

I just booked my room last minute at the plantation yesterday evening. I think there was still one normal room left.

Just be careful with that, 1st offense in Ohio can lead to jail time, buddy of mine found out last year.

We rented a camper. Staying at the track. Did it before and it was honestly a great idea. Sometimes being in the middle of all that craziness in Norwalk isn't fun.

Is the track not the middle of all the craziness?

The shoot out is kinda an entire part of ohio. We stay in Huron... Buchsers Shop is in wakefield... Track is in Norwalk... We spend alot of time in Sandusky.to eat and shop.

[quote=Jay Stacey]Buchsers Shop is in wakefield...quote]

Wakeman

The track craziness is what I want lol. Not the partying craziness i've seen some years in the town. Last time I camped there I ended up hanging out with John Shepherd all night and eating bbq, not to mention the steady flow of yager. I'll take that way over hanging out in Norwalk....

I believe were gonna hang out at the track after test n tune friday night. Raid J Drews fridge of beers.

2 years ago I stayed at a hotel in town. It was a wild party but someone tried to steal my exhaust in the middle of the night. Ruben saw him and said wtf you doing under my car. The guy ducked off and my exhaust fell off half way home. Last year I stayed at Plantation. It was quiet and just us. I felt safe.

Except I thought Jim was going to sneak in my room. Lol. Welcome aboard Reba!!

Would someone be willing to pick these up for me from Paul Volk?

http://www.ecmtuning.com/forums/showthread.php?t=82237

You should drive down and get them yourself

That's not very nice. None of my DSM friends wanted to go

Jason, you offering?

I could pick them up but I'd have to mail them to you when I get back. If you want to go that route I'll do it.

Nah has to be someone crossing TO willing to help out. My 2g needs these desperately.

No DSM friends in this thread? I can grab them for you if tell Paul Volk to find me, I'll be in the white 1g DSM with slicks

None of those friends invited me...lol

Reza, you want to pick those trim pieces for me?

Lol I think they all just figured your garage queens weren't ready...

It's not...it's missing some window trim

All strapped down and ready to go!

Well... it's futher muckin 11:06 and I'm JUST sitting my ass down for a Vodka and Orange before I hit the hay. What a mother effer of a day.

So, my chip showed up at about 3PM after I called 4 times to find out where the actual frack it was. Next day shipping via UPS is a joke.

THEN, I had to go get the truck I was borrowing, rip my ass up to pick up a trailer wiring harness, install that stupid thing. Turns out the new controller was a dud out of the box. frack me.

Finally at about 9:30 Ghislain and I managed to creep the car onto the trailer and at about 10:30 I walked in the door.

I'm ready.

Sort of.

I know I forgot something, but oh well.

Ghislain, I have to go through Belleville tomorrow, left my brain bucket at the shop. sh!t.

Reza, good to see you're coming.

Focker... OUT!

Rodger that Skipper.

Do not forget your extra Chip; it was sitting on your desk.

Oh yeah; also your passport.

Ghislain

What time you guys leaving?

Were at the Onroute in Trenton waiting on Ryan. Then were leaving.

No one wants to get these trim pieces for me?

I can if you prepay.

I'm heading out this evening after work, looks like I'm going to have an empty passenger seat, so if someone wants to jump in, get a hold of me asap.

Good Luck guys, pretty jealous right now. I had to decide between a wedding and this. I haven't been since 06' or 07'.

Feed us pics as soon as possible!

I'll grab them if you tell the guy to find me and drop them off. I am not gonna go looking around for your trim pieces You can pass him my # and tell him to call me during the day Saturday.

Corte has offered. Thanks though.

You're coming this year Reza?

I am REALLY feeling jealous right now....DAMN KNEE!! Is sure sucks getting old, but I think the alternative is worse.

Next year for sure!

That's the plan.

Where are you fools at?

So looks like my plans fell through for towing my DSM down there, so I won't be racing

I'm still coming and will be heading out in a few hours. Should be there this evening.

That sucks - driving the Evo or the Talon down?

Gonna cruise it in the evo
I'll end up just taking the DSM to cayuga in the next few weeks instead.

Looking forward to seeing some pics from Buschurs today guys.
Anyone going on the dyno? Tim?

Hello.

A few of us just got back to the Motel. Turn out is excellent, lots of vendors. We'll tinker on the cars for a bit and might do the T&T tonight.

I had my GoPro on the Car for the trip up to the Shop but forgot to turn it on.

Ghislain

My informant has spotted a trailer queen in NY State!

No one dynoed.. got video of a evo x runnjng 725hp.

I think its the best Friday turnout that ive seen in the 3 years I been here.

You guys aren't making me feel any better about not going!!! Glad to hear it's been a good time though.

How's the weather so far? As hot as always?

Weather is awsome!!! Ghiz and Sandra were in the pool today. We started the day at Sterks for breakfast. Bacon gravy was... GRAVY!

Awesome event so far

Hitt'n the hay way too late...

Max Effort tomorrow; correction in a few hours. Should be fun.

Havn't Reza yet.

Ghislain

Giz I'm at the quality inn in Milan. I guess I'll see you guys in the morning, unless anyone is up and close by.

We are leaving our Motel at 07:30 to go and eat at Bob Evan's in Norwalk.

Ghislain

Is anyone stopping by here on the way back? Ryan, I have your turbo here..

I am. To pick up them bushings and what not.

Did some test n tune today! first run was horrable! Up against a GTR...bogged off the launch.. Second run... Launched awsome! Missed 2nd! tomorow gonna try Bracket. Maybe get a awsome run! Pics and vids to come!

Having a fracking blast!!!! Eating super right now at Casa Something.... With Stephenie Tanachuck Tim and Jules, and Of course Sandra!

You weren't supposed to tell everyone about the sex change Jay, haha.

Did the auto cross after thinking I wouldn't run. Did 37.18 which wasn't bad at all. Oil pressure on the log was BRUTAL though. Dropped to 18.5PSI on turns from 55PSI.

GAURANTEED that I'm coming back next year. GAURANTEED.

Only problem is having to try to understand the frenchies. Haha

Yeah I'll definitely be going next year!

More pics for us home-bound please

Anyone catch the ETS 7.80 run?

Haha looks fun! Definitely with Gui, next year will be the year.

Sweet! Thanks Jay!

Like the compressor-wheel cap

So is the pool and bbq pit part of the same place?

Yessir they are.


Honestly, you have no idea what you're missing if you haven't gone.

You guys are killing me here...glad to see you're all having fun and glad to see you're now hooked, Stephan. Once you go, you never want to miss it again.

The pool and bbq are at the plantation. There is also a beach on the resort.. Overlooking lake erie.

Aperantly.. The other night some fishermen in the other rooms complained about us to the management. Said we were revin our motors in the parking lot and launching.. And doing very fast drive bys. The owner Todd told him, was out of line and that we come down every year and are good people. And can do what we want!! Then got Ryan to fix his old Triumph that was sitting in the motel storage.

Why no pics?

Sad that I couldn't make it this year. And WTF happened to summer? Is like 10* outside.

If anyone is stopping by RTM or can grab me a OFH gasket (6 bolt) somewhere, please let me know.
Ideally one of the Belleville area guys.

I probably have a spare kicking around somewhere I could mail to you..

I am HOPING Ryan stops in. I have a turbo here for him.

I posted picks on the previous page.

So... SUNDAY!

I entered Bracket.. But could not get enough of a consistant run for a good dial time. So I made one up. Then on my first eliminator.. I bogged out and stalled!! Had to be pushed back off the track!! So I was out. Eventally got it running again and everything was fine.

No Canadians broke (other then magnus) and we had fun!

Magnus ran shitty, AND broke.

So. What's new.

Im drunk!!!!

No Jason. You're as sober as a horse.

Weak

Can some one record a video?

I would, but it's pitch black outside and we're about to leave.

I did record a lot of the races on Tim's camcorder though.

Lucian, you and your friends arrive home safely?

What a great event, glad I was able to make it out. Soo many fast DSMs, Evos and GTRs! I already have my mind set on making it out again next year

Woah I missed a whole page of pictures. Sorry about that, good work Jay!

Very entertaining. Wish I wasn't stuck here in Suck'awa.

Yup we are all back safe and sound. Along with all your stuff

Got home at 7:30 am, got a power nap in and off to reality(work, ugh).

It was great seeing everyone again and meeting new faces!

I'll have some pics up in the following days.

Oh, I also smuggled back some E85

English Racing 7.80 pass is in this vid(3:20)

Just got back. My trans started to pop out of fifth on the highway, I assume the nut is coming loose... yaaay

Nice to see everyone.
And for those that didn't make it, you missed out.

My car ran mint on the way there, threw down some good power while there and on the way home, and now the car is being rewarded.

Such a good time. Last night was fun too, met some people with the worst short term memory too. Haha

Ya Steph. Was nice meeting you...

Ghislain

Likewise Giz. I look forward to coming to shannonville and trying out your restaurant!

Ziggy, sorry I wasn't much online so I didn't see your post. Just ship it to me and throw a gasket in there for Jamie...

Ah heck, I'll call you sometime tomorrow.

This year's shootout was definitely in the eye of the beholder.

I trailered my car down with the intention to run it, however due to the lack of prep time the week before, I was reluctant to put her on the track.

My car caught fire on Thursday night when a brake line touched a positive post on the fuse box while we were bleeding my new Wilwood setup. Ghislain coated a corner my engine bay in fire extinguisher. I was not the happy camper after that. It wrecked a brand new stainless line.

Lucky for me, there was a hydraulic shop across from Buschur that made me a new line. I did not make it to the car show.

Saturday was a bust. The car was not idling with the new T-Body and SMIM very well. I did some adjustments later on that day and it sorted itself out.

I forgot sh!t at home, I was incredibly rushed, I can't say this was my best shootout.

I made it home in one piece, and I did get to meet, and see some great people again. We had a good time overall, but it could have been better.

I picked both things up and sent them with Jay. I forgot I took a couple papers off the box and put them in the glove box because of the winds.

Picts!


On the way there. From front to back it was, Ryan, Giz, myself and Ian.


Giz in a drunken stooper.



Dyno Day:

Looks like a 1000HP car?




Yup.










Driving to the track early Sunday morining

At Bob Evan's...


...cars just seem to appear near you


At the track:


GTR being a GTR

On the way to shootout, we saw some old man pee'ing on the side of the 401!!






Me and Ghiz waiting to race,

Me in the staging lanes for my first ever Bracket race!

Then this happened!

It flooded itself during 2step.... I limped it to the pits and got it running again tho so no harm.

LOL that sucks! hilarious that it runs a 16.50, seems like a waste since the stock car runs faster... Doesn't it!?!

Hey Ryan, looks like you made the cut in Tom's video:Tom’s Turbo Garage: The 2014 DSM / Evo / GT-R Sho…: http://youtu.be/47JdCWvpJ7c
Somewhere around the 8:20 mark. She looks good!

VIDS!!










725hp!!

A pic of our cars at the buscher shop on friday. Taken from FPs drone camera!!

I thought we were going to see Ryan in a dres LOL, nice run though Ryan looks like you did pretty good considering.

Sandras in there too!

Go to 6:26 and tell me who's spyder was strolling down the isle.

hehe

Hopefully you guys make it on the DVD for the shootout as well.

Guillaume......me and Stephan just about bought a mint 2g evostyle carbon fiber bumper.... For 160 bucks!!! We were gonna tease you with it!!

if you would have, I would have bought it off you.

For the record... The Blue 420 Eclipse that beat me at bracket racing... Finished runner up to another 420 car! both with 16 second runs.

Hello

This year had a bot of a different "swing" to it. Max Effort only allowed us 3 pass of AutoX and 3 pass of Drag. I managed a 36.148 sec for the AutoX. The course was pretty interesting with some technical corners and a good area where you could carry a little speed. Guess I killed a cone on my best pass adding a full second to my time. Never felt it. As for the 1/4 mile I did a 12.3 at 116. That Track is a little harder on the launch but I managed a 1.8 sec 60 ft. Not my best but the thing hauled the mail. Bummer was that the NLTS could not be engaged and I grinded 2,3 and 4 quite nicely...

Sunday was a bit of a bummer as I could only do 1 pass before the elimination. Gig started late as we had to wait for the Track Crew to clean it as it rained early in the morning. I was wondering why the thing knocked and found out; after I was eliminated that my Meth Nozzle blew off the IC Pipe; did not like the Boost...

All in all it was my 13 or 14 SO and was able to drive back home on it's own power.

Planning to attend next year.

Ghislain

Mr stecey lol

Like how that announcer even said that it was a slow car. 16.5 lol

Sucks your car bogged out.

Lalibert = Omfg wow

Oh and to add a bit of info.

Mike K and I were near Ryan's car when the "flaming" event happened. Ryan open the Hood and found a 2" column of smoke coming up from the "affected area". Mike K leaned over to check the source of the problem. By then I had grab a FireX and was standing ready to dispence. Mike K said; Mmmm not sure but I think you should squize a little shot which I did. Mike K's pretty Mug (face) was about 1 foot and a half away from the nozzle. Guess he inhaled a bit as he pulled away and let out two short cough!!!

I'm glad to report that both Mike K and Ryan's Car did not sustained further injuries. Both are doing fine and will recover.

Ghislain

Haha,

That was a fun time, even though Ryans car caught fire, and my lungs inhaled fire extinguisher residue... Nothing some beer and sun couldn't fix.

I made the trek by myself to the shootout, and beat the bajeezus out of my car on the autocross(was my first time ever trying to make the car turn).
Managed a 37.xx sec run, may have ran faster but forgot to check my last time. Then realized after that my internal wastegate wasn't wired all the way shut.

I am running a stock clutch and cant launch with it, so I didn't bother with drag racing and just watched the boys do their thing for the rest of the weekend.

See ya'll next year.

Here's some of the pics I took, I have more but I feel asleep editing them last night lol.

This year actually went really well for me this time around.

Brother had the fastest "Magnus" car first pass was his fastest as we were dealing with clutch problems.
Ran 11.08@ 133MPH bogging on the lanuch and missing 2nd with just shitty Murica 93 pump. I honestly think with more boost, better fuel and a clean pass the car has a high 9 second pass in it!!

I also have the video of the ETS GTR doing the 7.80 pass on my cell phone


It was nice to meet some members here and finally put a face to their names. Also got to talk to Turbo Tom about his Gaylant which was cool and Robert @FP was really cool as well.

All in all experience was 10/10. Would do again


Also this Pic was on the Gaylant forum.

I had the same issue, as soon as I tanked up in NY I had knock anytime I got into boost. I checked things out and nothing was off. I talked with Yusuf Begic(own of the LHD Evo 2), he suggested to drop in a gallon or 2 of E85 with a full tank. I did that and back to zero knock. After I burned that tank up on the way home and refilled at Angola, knock came back.

I brought back 5 gallons of E85 to play with, hell it was only $15 lol.

'Merican 93 Oct is definitely puke. Not sure but it probably equals to 91/92 Swill we get here.

Couple of Gallons of E85 sounds like a good idea; maybe adding some Meth to the 93 PukeWater could yield some similar results.

All in all a trip to the SO is well worth it for those that never picked up their "Skirts" for the "Stroll".

Lets make next year the killer Canadian Contingent. You Ladies that are trolling this post should definitely consider the Treck; you have one full year to put on your Big Boys Pants and come along for the ride. None of us that attended wear Dippers. You would soon realised that it feels much better that pooping in your Pants.

Oh and eating grown up food will make your colon much happier!!!

First time I see a pic of Giz's car! No lie

I like the color and the rare 2gb projector/OEM lights!

More Tim


I just know its Tim because he was beside Dave Ruby when he made his record pass. 9.07@156 on an old, beat up HX40!

Wahoo I made it into the record books looking like a parked car. Lol

You looked pretty impressive still. I mean, you were put against a Holset powered Talon

What happened in the finals of the quick 32,they both ran 33s WTF was that?

There were so many brake downs.. most people had easy runs. But David Buchser was pissed and made a post letting everyone know... That next year, if you dont atleast try and impress the paying spectators during the free run. You will be disqualified. This turned into a huge debate on Shootout facebook which lead to him saying Its his show... And if you dont like it... Dont come.

Sounds like something Dave would say.

awesome pics

bunch of pics on flicker some from Canada. Who owns this? on this board? https://www.flickr.com/photos/126419606@N02/14843298688/in/set-72157646437392137/

Found some pics while going through my phone...

The morning cruise:


Breaking my bacon gravy virginity:


Some handsome guy sexying it up in the pool:


Last night, drinking our faces off with some randoms:

Never again with the bacon gravy. I swear it became hard to breathe after eating it! lol

I remember my heart slowing down...

First time only hurts. You guys will crave it by next summer.

Ghislain

Bacon gravy memory is very carefully bringing a large container of it back to Canada, only to have Kinnard drop it in is driveway.

Tim I can't believe you would bring that stuff back,I tried it once,that was enough, just the looks of it LOL.

Got my first Dsport Magazine in the mail last week. Ordered from the Shootout!
And in it, was their coverage of the the Shootout! no.. Non of us were in it... But they did list all the competiters for the important classes... Including stock appearing turbo! Which means GHIZ .. If you did enter stock appearing turbo, you would at least made it into Dsport magazine!

Bracket class was not listed.

What about Autocross??
Still curious what my last lap time was.

I asked Buscher, he said they kept the autocross times for one month then tossed them unfortunately.
