Default First DE with the LS1 coming up this weekend!
It's been almost a year since my clutch fork broke (again) on my 951, and thus began the LS1 swap. The saga now comes to a close with a DE at Mid-Ohio this weekend. I can't wait, but I'm also a bit anxious about re-learning to drive it on the track with almost twice the hp. I'll let you all know how it goes and hopefully post a video when I get back.

Alan,

What is happening this weekend @ Mid-Ohio? I'm new here so I apologize for not being up to speed yet.

Does your region allow V8 swaps at DE? I only ask because I've heard anecdotal evidence of some regions being against it. In any case, have fun, and tell us how much fuel you use!

Sam Grant will be there, too. I'll get him to take some videos from outside the car.
