Re: HyperFest 2012
hyperfest coverage
too bad i didnt qualify, turns out the BOV was leaking a tremendous amount of boost and i couldnt figure it out until sunday.
id hit about 7psi and then id just start losing all my boost/have no top end
got there thursday
friday morning getting ready for practice
some photos from friday practice/qualifying, it felt like it had around 200 hp at this point :/
no power no smoke! FAIL! ended up qualifying 22nd place! at least i didnt get a zero
blocked off that bitch (the BOV) @ drift nirvana around 1pm sunday through the day after checking for numerous boost leaks etc. and BAM like 70 HP and top end outta no where! shit hauls ass and spins through 3rd on 245's!
sad i didnt make top 16, but so glad i figured the car out! first time driving it.. now at least this winter i can really put some more effort in and prepare for a sick ass 2013 season. most deff will be doing some more testing as this season rolls through though.
awaiting some more media and hopefullyl of a video of when i got it running better!

Got a whole new look for her. She looks great and drove great with 5mm steering rack spacers and 30mm extended control arms and a proper alignment. No more rubbing while steering! I have nothing bad to say about this car. :-)
Major thanks to Dan Jenkins for the pics!

Re: HyperFest 2012
Every year I say I'm going to go to Hyperfest,but never seem to make it............................................Then after the event I see all the pics/videos of flat-billed hat,wifebeater,Eminem looking fuckers trying to be badasses,and it makes me completely happy I didn't go.
I went to Hyperfest at Charlotte('03 maybe?)and it was great,but it's hard to deal with the spectataor crowd that comes out to "lifestyle" events.
