Sorry I didn't say hi man. Rolled out kinda early, I was Travis ride, he was hella tired and sun burnt, lol, we were in the pool for like 2 hours earlier that day. He is just a little white boy and turned hella red, lol. I was red too but it's already turning tan for me
Will run the balt next time on a Wed. I am just not down with paying $35 to race when it's that damn crowded I want to get a good time with the stock setup, then stage 2 it and see how much better it gets.
Del, congrats on the best time so far, I can see 12.9 for you
Big Vin, good times seeing you and the black beast. Only got to see you run once but it's all good.
James I hear did a nice time for a stock car, would have been better if he didn't burn out through 2nd, lol, but it's ok, I was hella bad my first time out to the track in the GTO
i saw an 11.90 outa some TPI m*llet (think the guy posts here), drove by ur car while you had a pack of ice sittin ontop of that manifold but didn't bother taking a closer look because, well, you're still rockin the TPI . Surprised me to say the least, guessin a lil nitrous but anyways, now i'm just ramblin.
As for the gayest 3rd then there, it would have to be that black big tire 11 second one
Lol, never got to see that black iroc run. Guess I know his times now, was curious, 11's, not impressed at all for all that show he had on his car. Figured he would be much faster, all show and no go imho
There I am in the near lane Spun through first and second there

That was probably Armando bro (valencia1z), blue car?
That black drag car was gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay alright, what is with the super narrow rear end that could fit under a Geo Metro? Interior was all hacked and gauges mounted with woodscrews and aluminum stock from Ace Hardware.
Funny thing is right when I walked up to check it out in the pits, one of their crowd (prob the owner) yelled "IT'S FOR SALE!!!".
I replied "No thanks, I'll keep my Black IROC that isn't f****d up" (even if it is slower)

i didn't take a close look at it, i just despise big tire cars that don't run 7s or faster.
Wish I could go really bad. I have Court on thurday for my Speed Contest Ticket, so when I get my license back you will sure as hell see me out there instead of the streets.
Haha. Hopefully I only get my license suspended for a month. If it is more, it is going to suck looking at the bird just sitting there. I might get bored and add some nitrous I already got bored and added some kicker Comp subs W/ a 1600 watt amp...
Yeah, I have the SLP 2400 stall, but while it can hold the car in place to around 2K, if I launch that high I can't get enough traction.
I tend to launch closer to 1500, but need some more lap time to practice launching it higher/harder to get better 60's I guess.
sunday I found out the guy that owns that red 2nd gen lives about 4 houses down from me. I would always see it in his garage on jack stands but never seen the front of it. small world
Okay. Next time we go out in the playground, it will be Firebird VS Camaro.
Yea, Firebird -VS- Camaro. I'm thinking Del's car w/ some slicks,front runners, & a small shot of No2, will probably take it into the low 12's to 11's.
My 2nd bet would be, my car w/ the new TH400, 3000 stall, suspension tuned, tuned fuel pressure w/ No2,
Did I mention wind tunnel testing???
I'm thinking mid to low 12's
It just depends, cause I'm planning my 400ci small block as you read this!!![IMG]file:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/MARCFR%7E1/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/moz-screenshot-2.jpg[/IMG][IMG]file:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/MARCFR%7E1/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/moz-screenshot-3.jpg[/IMG][IMG]file:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/MARCFR%7E1/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/moz-screenshot-1.jpg[/IMG]
okay that's it! I'm going back in my garage.....later. Now where's that extra NOS kit I have.....hmmmm. No, not this 300HP direct port....oh here it is, a little dusty plate system. How bout 150.... hahaha

I think slicks and a smaller blower pulley and I'm seeing low 12's.
Was always tempted to "squirt" a little to act as an after-cooling effect, but there is still a lot of boost potential in the ProCharger that I can use before I blow up my motor, haha.
I'll have to think about the slicks and rims to go with them.
I was actually thinking of the MT ET Street Radial Drag Tires.
Give me an idea on a pair of 275/40/17 's when you're bored at the shop for a second.

Gimme a call at the shop 315-0335. We'll find something for ya. I also have 2 Cragar front runners w/ tires. I'd let em go for a couple hundred.
Hey marc, if I drop off my bypass valve and pipe next week, can you find a peice of 3" stainless pipe to tig it to? or should I provide the pipe as well?
I'm ready to get it welded now I can order my ecu as well.
After the car runs, I promise to bring it by for some welding/exhaust action!
Just don't sabotage the beast that will own you at the track
Travis, if you bring the goodies, I'll fix it up.
Why do you need it Tig'd?
Is it structural?
BTW, I'm a professional, No sabotage, Racecars break on they're own.
I just assumed tig'ing stainless is the thing to do, if mig welding looks good, works for me. I'll see if I can drop it off thursday when I bring that other car by..
I didnt know there was a difference, I would think stainless, since my pipes are stainless?
----------
Even if not, I wanted to get this intake pipe ceramic coated anyways
