I must've been under a rock as I didn't know about this event until the cruise.

The first year of this for the North and a little something for everyone!

CRUISE, DRAG RACING & CAR SHOW!

http://norcalinvasion.com

You must sign up in advance for whatever you are participating in! (e.g. Car Show, Racing 1 or 2 days, Pit Crew, etc.)

NOTE: There is a "Best 3rd Gen F body" award for those with "show" vehicles.

I'm in for some racing at least! WHO'S WITH ME??

If we had a good majority going to an event, we should plan to meet up!

Hmm should be able to make it to at least one of the days

Well I've been under a couple rocks lately, but I will try to dig a way out to make it to the Saturday part of the event

Wow this sounds pretty interesting. I will be around that weekend. Tough call as to which day to do. Anyone know if the bikini models will be there on Saturday too?

UnderCover89TBI

iTrader: (25)

i did not even see this. I guess if I go it will be on sunday

OUTATIME GTA

iTrader: (2)

You must have missed it Ant, otherwise your initial response would've had much more enthusiasm.

I would've thought you'd be into the car show portion Will, the bikini models making Sunday a plus fo sho. One of your WCGMP buddies mentioned it to me.

UnderCover89TBI

iTrader: (25)

For sure it would have. I wonder what the cruise is going to be like.

OUTATIME GTA

iTrader: (2)

They have yet to update several things on the site including the cruise looks like.

I think I want to go for racing Sat night and then just spectate at the car show/races on Sunday.

XitLeft

I'm up for spectating @ the car show, race & willing to be a judge for the bikini contest!(I require to be close enough to the bikini contestants to see their "goosebumps & eyes" )

Calm the hormones buddy boy.. its summertime, they will be everywhere. That's a guarantee.

UnderCover89TBI

iTrader: (25)

Bill your a crackup man

OUTATIME GTA

iTrader: (2)

Settle down sir, haha. Not going to be a contest, just some paid models walking around vendors probably. Maybe they'll take a pic with cars, that'd be sweet.

UnderCover89TBI

iTrader: (25)

Bill I mean if you really want see some "bikiniless models" Rancho is only 20 mins from the track btw

Copchaser

iTrader: (2)

You know that place well huh?

norcalz28

iTrader: (13)

If it's stupid hot I prolly won't make it. It's miserable in the car when it's really hot out. But maybe I can crash up that way Sat night, and drive over early Sunday before it gets too hot. Head back later Sunday night. I'd like to show the iroc. Since I won't be able to tune it before then, I doubt I'd race it. Anyone know if these are the same guys that put on LA invasion?

Dyno Don

iTrader: (7)

Yes they are, the same guys Mark & Lee.

UnderCover89TBI

iTrader: (25)

Only a few special ladies know me by name there

You have replaced so many parts on that thing, they would be hard pressed to find a cleaner modified example. They don't specify a 3rd gen modified vs stock category unfortunately, so trailer queens with super low miles would have a clear advantage I'd guess in a points system.

They have a nearby hotel reference on the site in Rancho too.

iTrader: (13)

Yea I've stayed at the Hampton in Rancho, it's like 10 min away. May do that again, we shall see.

UnderCover89TBI

iTrader: (25)

Yeah your car is so nice Will i'd have to say you'd deffinately be in the running for a trophy

more like by the last four of ur atm card

UnderCover89TBI

iTrader: (25)

Nah I take cash in the pocket and leave the atm card at home. Ever since that one time when I tried swiping the card on the stripper I learned it doesnt work there

No more comments eh? hahahaha

norcalz28

iTrader: (13)

Megs and I will most likely be attending for both days. It's a good thing the car show season isn't year round, I can't afford many more trips like this. But then again, it's hard to say no when it seems like lately more and more people are coming out of the woodwork. Looking forward to this.

UnderCover89TBI

iTrader: (25)

haha that's cool Megan seems like a trooper but make a habit out of too many car shows and it'll be trouble huh? haha. I know I wont make it out there for both days but im sure ill go to one. Leaning more towards the bikini babes

iTrader: (1)

I'll be there for both days if car is ready. Just gotta figure out which class I'll fall into 10.6, 9.60??

EvilCartman

iTrader: (1)

Do they have a jackstand class?

3rdBird

iTrader: (1)

Thats a good one

Copchaser

iTrader: (2)

I will be right next to u... Probably under it while the show is going on too

UnderCover89TBI

iTrader: (25)

daaang john get that thing up and running!

vindeezl

iTrader: (2)

Sunday is when I'll be up there

EvilCartman

iTrader: (1)

Mine runs lol just had some fun leaving marks around town in it a couple weeks ago. Had to give my uncle from Canada a ride in it. I am thinking of getting a second electric fan in the sucker though, started to run a bit too warm for me.

Copchaser

iTrader: (2)

its back together. I think my valves might be too tight cuz it won't fire. Fuel, spark are there, timing is in the ballpark, but not firing yet. Gone thru grounds and wiring. All connectors are secured. Running outta things to check. So ima back the valves out a quarter turn at a time to see if anything changes.

Side note... How do u do double.quotes.. I wanted to reply to EvilCartman also.

UnderCover89TBI

iTrader: (25)

next to the quote button is a ++ button you press that on one person you wanna quote, then again on another, then when your actually ready to respond. you click quote on the last person you pressed ++ too and it'll quote them both.

Yup so if you have fuel, spark, then it is a compression problem so the valves being too tight is likely. are you getting any combustion or just nothing? What I mean is any sort of fire. You'll get her done in no time

Copchaser

iTrader: (2)

Yeah, I can hear it firing off in the headers since they.are open at the moment. I should have it running in the nxt couple weeks depending on work/family schedule. Then putting up loose ends on it and get it ready for the street again.

Nice pic in ur signature. Car looks good there

Thanx for the lesson in quoting.......

UnderCover89TBI

iTrader: (25)

Thanks about the picture. I thought so too.

You welcome for the quoting lesson. It took me awhile to realize that too.

I think your timing is not as close as it needs to be to fire. play with the timing some more

1TUF92Z

Yes you will be racing!!! I'll even trailer it for you if need be. If it gets too hot, I got you covered as well. Inside the trailer will be cool.

Copchaser

iTrader: (2)

Heeyyyyy stranger! Glad to see ur still with us. Cool Dels wheels will be ready for.that weekend. Nice.. what bout u and the "original trailer queen"? Are you two coming out?

UnderCover89TBI

iTrader: (25)

The silver bullet will be back on the road? You probably just made Del's day.

OUTATIME GTA

iTrader: (2)

Haha, I'm not losing and sleep or holding my breath over it either. Y'all know I try my best to get out to events with or without my 3rd gen.

Been a crazy past few months and haven't had more than a few minutes here and there to think about the GTA, but I'll be glad when I'm back in it.

I've been trying to put a little $ away this year so I can hopefully finish up some plans for it and then finally paint once it runs right.

Lookin' fwd to seein' y'all in a month for this!

3rdBird

iTrader: (1)

jeez, what takes so long to fix a car? Are you having custom parts made? Are they on national backorder? Discontinued?

Git R dun already.

OUTATIME GTA

iTrader: (2)

Funny guy. Bennie is working on the wiring for my ECM swap and a half dozen other oddball items.
42lb injectors have been in awhile now and I have a newly coated blower pulley that should further help reduce slippage.
Have a brake vacuum pump that needs to go in, a blow off valve to somehow be welded on and a heat shield for my starter.
My new alum radiator doesn't fit depth wise because of the custom made supercharger bracket, so that's going to take some ingenuity.
Then I need to find some tuner time for a street then dyno tune. There's probably more, but I'm getting old and have forgotten.

Quality work takes time!

Hey guys, Megs and I will be sitting this one out. We're going on vacation for 2 weeks prior and with the rental car and a slip for the boat it's costing more and more haha. So we gotta trim the fat somewhere. Take lots of pics and I hope to get up that one in the fall when things settle down a bit.

UnderCover89TBI

iTrader: (25)

Lame. Haha. I don't think we are calling this an official NCTG GTG are we? If not, we do need to plan one for September
