These cars(2000 and newer) are programable from a lap top ..how much horse power does an ecotech make(175 to 200 HP aprox)and the Neons or newer Hondas...new style suspensions. these cars are gonna be rockets You must not realize that all the 88+ Hondas can be tuned really easily too! And the neons are difficult to tune unless you are running a standalone ecu. At capital city they let us do what we want to the computers but we still need to dyno under 140hp. One thing weight will never ever equal everything an the guys who make there cars turn better than others can still be competitive with the guys who spend lots of $$. Tech jould have in place 1 guy for the minis because there are so many combos out there to work!

Posted by: Robk66« on: December 15, 2012, 02:25:28 PM »ya where did that get him?
Posted by: jcrashm2« on: December 15, 2012, 01:26:24 PM »other tracks run twin cam nows right?, the flamboro cars are still single cam...my cav was setup like the others, i had the least kms on the motor 180,000 kms...i ran junk tires except for one falken, the not as good one, on the RF and i would qualify top 12th to 15th...but the other guys went to the dunlops 1/2 thru the season and were right with that 15g car...
on the dirt hughes with his neon R/T could pretty well win every week but he broke alot of motors... Posted by: disturber« on: December 15, 2012, 11:42:42 AM »the rules aren't bad, just a few anomalies that may get them in trouble.
dohc ecotechs 145hp 2500lbs dohc neon 150 hp 2500lbs sohc neon 135hp 2200lbs sohc neon r/t 150 hp 2200lb sohc nissan 145 hp 2700lbs dohc nissan 150 hp 2700lb dohc accuras 140 hp 2500lb dohc nonvtec honda 135-140 hp? 2500lbs. not a ton of these came stock, most hot dohc are vtec dohc vtec honda 130-200hp. not allowed mustangs open rules sorta hp?  2200lbso u can play ecu games and get a bit more well thats competition. not alot different than changing the jets in a carb and moving the distributor for timing, and it's cheap tuning so why outlaw it? it's not like you had to buy a 350 holley and a header for $$$, that's the real stupid $$$ rule. Mustangs are a wild card because money CAN buy you alot of hp (and how light can you get 'em too?), and neon r/t is obviously overlooked. There is no way one of the highest hp 4 cyl 16v available should get to run 300 lbs lighter than the rest. and Butler being so dominant has hurt it for Nissans it seems Posted by: wyatt« on: December 15, 2012, 10:45:25 AM »even if they do program their ecus that doesnt give you a magical 50hp lol

Posted by: nitroe« on: December 15, 2012, 10:33:08 AM »you are right wyatt but after they have been they have been reprogramed, how much do they make then?
Posted by: wyatt« on: December 15, 2012, 10:20:53 AM »ecotec's make about 140-145hp, not 175-200
Posted by: Robk66« on: December 15, 2012, 10:14:29 AM »how fast can u go on junk tires thought? other tracks besides sunset have better tires that there allowed to use so maybe it will even out..?? lol

Posted by: 240racer« on: December 14, 2012, 07:24:50 PM »Yup !
and.. I said guys have 3-5 into motors. Not that everyone has 5 grand motors. A 5 grand thunder car will get you lapped pretty quick. To win mini in Barrie pays $300. Thunder 12th is $90 At least get facts straight before you make an argument for/against anything. Posted by: jcrashm2« on: December 14, 2012, 07:00:30 PM »mustangs at flamboro are spending upwards of 5 grand to keep up with stock nissans and cavaliers...i'm told the nissans are but i know for sure the cavaliers are cuz i helped build them...
years ago when i ran my stock 2.2 dodge i had a couple of mustang guys telling me i was cheating cuz they couldnt pass me with their motors done by an F4's engine builder for $2500...why do guys spend all this money...10g's and up to win $125 to $200 in minis...i always told them to move up and stop wrecking the class...but now the jump is HUGEEE...so both classes are going to crap...i can tell you the dirt guys down here have it right...merrittville, humberstone and ohsweken run pretty well the same rules, 3 different nights for both minis and thunders...no wonder more pavement guys are trying it and alot are staying cuz pavement racing costs are getting stupid... Posted by: Robk66« on: December 14, 2012, 06:04:30 PM »well maybe those guys lol but i know sunset guys arnt spending that much
