Import Wars #2

So last time I got knocked out in the first round, running my buddy's 2.4 coupe. This time I dusted off the black car, got it running again, spent a whole day on the front end fixing it so the bumper didn't sag etc. You can't even tell it's been hit. Replaced a rubber brake line on the driver's side front caliper (caliper liked to stay on lol). Took it to the track gutted.

Stock 2.0L DOHC, 3.0 CAI, Fast Fabs header, 2.5" dynomax, no accessories. Only thing in the interior was 2 r/t seats and the dash lol. And the passenger side door panel so my gf could figure out how to open door.

Best run was a 14.972 @ 94.08 mph. First run of day, didn't hit 14's again. Oh well, I was surprised.

Dialed in at 15.10, won 5 rounds and got 1st in the Super Street class (15.0 and slower, dial your own et). Had to chase down a Civic (16.9), Civic Si (16.0), Tiburon (15.9), Civic (16.5) and a Cavilier (15.6). Got $200, not too bad. Car hadn't moved since like December when I parked it. Well I did occasionally move it so the snow plow could come through

Hadn't been started in over a month, hell I took the PCM out and gave it to mahifish and finally put one back in on Friday.

Keep the car as a DD, and get your ACR racing again.

After looking on the megasquirt forums and finding something I really really liked that I was hoping to find, that doesn't appear to be the plan at all...

Lol, the ACR? Not anytime soon. Moving in 3 weeks and now that I got this car running good, I'm gonna wait on that one.
