When will you be ready to hop.

Jerry

 

...

 

Whimp! :lala:

 

Hey...what's the deal....now someone else is #1 and you don't want to play

 

....

 

Just can't do it yourself. That's a damn shame.

 

...

 

I like to go fast but I like to go fast AND turn.

 

When it costs ~$20 to race at Willow Springs, I'm in for sure. I wish Auto-X and Road Racing were as cheap as Drag Racing.

PS: I think you're crazy for converting your car from slushbox to stick shift back to slushbox.

 

When you can't drive you just give up and take the easy way out.

 

That's supposed to be fair? Well, you already got to beat me fair and square, so I guess you're all done with racing now.

 

C’mon! Do you see us raising hell over the fact that Jerry has a full blown racecar? Or better yet questioning the run and doubting the existence of a time slip? NO! With the amount of research and development he’s put into the car setup, I’m actually a little disappointed that the car trapped such a low speed. But hey a 12.59 definitely knocks us out of first place and I extend my congratulations to Jerry.

As far as Team Bunny being ready to run? Well I look at it this way; short of a Peterbilt traveling 30 MPH hitting us at the starting line a 1.60 60’ simply isn’t possible with the current suspension setup. You guys need understand what James means when he says “It's not a fair race unless I have the advantage.” He is referring to the heavily modified suspension on Jerry’s car. I know most of you think he’s pouting but take the time to read it the underlying message magically floats to the top.

Again I’m a little disappointed that it was Jerry and not one of our more vocal contenders that knocked us off the top. But we take a great deal of pride in the fact that it took a racecar to beat our street car. Jerry has moved the game to a different arena, so begins our
Evolution.

And you guys think I stripped my 86 just to sell it…

 

...

$/min
RR: $150/150 min = $1/min
Drag: $20/.87 min = $22.99/min

 

I offered to race you on street tires at Fontana last weekend but you wanted none of it.

 

 

C’mon! Do you see us raising hell over the fact that Jerry has a full blown racecar?

Easy boy.....he drives her on the street and to work.
I still don't get it tho.....you can bring it to race Vince anyway he wants it ....but not Jerry

Besides all he wanted to do was hop

 

...

 

What a bunch of crybabies. I thought it was 350NA, whoever wins, wins?

Sore losers.

 

...

 

It will be....at my choosing.........

 

Wow I’ve never seen so many hurt women! We got beat by a full blown track car and you all know it. As far as his commute to work goes I suppose five miles round trip is a fair comparison to other “street cars”. Look girls it took a fully fabricated car to beat us. The ET vs. MPH alone tells you that it was more suspension than motor. It’s not a matter of us being sore losers, wimps, or crybabies. It is what it is and that’s all that it is. All I’m saying is that it took a pretty big gun to knock us off of the fence so now we’ll regroup, swap out some parts, and level the playing field. Its funny how the ones who bark the loudest have yet to step up to any challenge.

 

Damn, am I the only one who is smart enough to come up with a solution to all this bickering...
Thats right fellas u are all thinking it but not man enough to say it...
KY WRESTLING

Let us look to "Old School" for the solutions to our problems

 

The ET vs. MPH alone tells you that it was more suspension than motor.

Hey you guys didn't run all that great first time out either, give it time.

Nobody is taking away what you guys have accomplished, but now the playing field is level like you have been asking....soooo
bring it on don't run and hide (it's not becoming to such a fine pair of upstanding gentlemen like yourselfs) if you get beat, oh well, back to the drawing board and the garage to refine it a little more, ok. Isn't that what competition is all about. 'sides you were on top long enough. LOL!!

 

I think Mike is right in some point.. Jerry knows his stuff and he does have a well set up car for drag racing.. Jerry should be in the field with Gene... But story is it's a So Ca 3rdgen n/a with the fastest times so He is on top..

 

Thats what I thought, the rules change when you lose.

Cry me another river.

 

I have stated numerous times when I'll run and what I need to do before I run again. If you guys are not able to read then I'll stop by and read it to you.

When I'm at the racetrack I've raced anyone and everyone who's wanted to race whether I think I'll win or lose, unlike some people, who will not run other people because they don't want to lose. I have never refused a race at the track and have never avoided a race at the track.

This is the first time Jerry asked me to come out and race. I haven't pushed on my car for nearly a year at the track. Even when I broke my car I was back at the track in a couple weeks after fixing the broken parts and spending several hundred $$$ to fix my only car. I've limped or required a tow home from the track more than any of you and I don't live with 70 miles of the track. Yet I return. If something breaks it breaks, but I'll only race when I have $$$ and time to fix it.

You guys want Team Bunny to race Jerry because you can't beat us yourselves and can't beat Jerry either. Jerry has a great car and a solid combo with a great drag racing specific suspension, however his results from his high stall auto will beat us before the 60' mark currently. We either have to add power to overcome his 60' or swap to an auto like he has. To be competitive with that, along with his lighter car, will be a challenge for Team Bunny. I gladly accept that challenge and will race when I feel we can put down reliable and consistant number close to Jerry's.

I am currently planning changes that will make Team Bunny a more reliable contender and the results will allow Jerry and Team Bunny to be a sight to see.

All you also-ran's are more devisive than congratulatory for the sport. I like that the IE crew (Rusty, Randy, etc.) are fast now. I like that Randy will be in the 12's soon. So what if Rusty runs a little juice. When Jerry was on the juice only good things were said about him and his times. When Rusty runs people disqualify him for mis mod. Personally I can't wait to beat his car on the juice . It's supposed to be fun but some people wear their also-ran ego's on their chest and make more noise than passes. There are a bunch of hater's on this board that are taking away the fun from the sport.

 

Long as I manage to improve of my ETs every trip to the strip I am happy...which is why I am not happy this week

 

I suggest a street legal drags just like HR put on.
Street tires, pump gas, full interiors.
I also suggest they be held at Carlsbad due to the numerous runs available to allow heads up runs, not just time slips.
Unfortunately time is of the essance due to the closing of Carlsbad.

 

What was that you were saying again?

I run whoever wants to run, doesnt matter to me. I dont sit back and make excuses why I cant or wont run certain cars, but there sure are a whole slew of them here. Talk about taking away from 'the sport'... I thought we were talking about drag racing, not mouth racing.

I still have my timeslip for my TA when I beat a modded LS1, and I was still running a totally stock 91 305. Wasnt my fault he couldnt drive.

 

The only time that our cars were together at the track was Irwindale and you didn't want to race. You have never never beat me in your car even in street racing. And I guess we will never find out at this stage of the game. So if you want we could set up a date to go Carlsbad with regular street tires or go to Fontana and race on slicks. If anyone else is down for this step up to the plate.

 

I find it funny that Mike & James are willing to call out Vince and Kevin all day long at the track when we're 2 tenths slower than them, but as soon as Jerry gets an equal slip as them, suddenly they're full of excuses. Just like they accused us of doing. Hrm......

What does Jerry's car have that is so different? An aftermarket k-member and a roll cage. What else are you so scared of? Mike is just as good of a driver as Jerry.

As I've said before, if I had my 9-bolt rear end in the car right now, I'd be out at the track challenging you every time. I'm not scared even if I am two tenths slower.

What gives, guys?

 

Madmax- You hardly go to the track. My statement was in jest and taken out of context. When I'm at the track I've raced whoever wanted to race. When I go to the track I am prepared to accept whatever happens. Sorry but like you last year I don't have time to do everything I want and racing and breaking my car hasn't been on the books. I would hae like to have gone to Fontana during the better weather in spring.

Kevin- whatever you say, but the end result is you never wanted to race me, not Mike, and neither did Vincent. On several occations you both said you'd be at the track but you both didn't bring your car. Either of you were plenty capable of taking me out in my car as Don and Randy did.

Vincent-when I was at the track all last summer you never went.

I'll race once level the field a little better. If Jerry has a high stall auto why shouldn't I? Jerry will only get faster. That would seem to only make a more fair race wouldn't it? The problem is you guys don't want a race and have some fun, you want Team Bunny to lose and I will do my best to dissapoint you. Well I'm going to do what I can to be as competitive as I can within my means. If you guys don't like it...well...you don't have too.

I go to the track to support the George, Jenibella, the IE boys, and eat some of Donna's munchies. I don't go there to ridicule their cars or dismiss their improvements and results.

I put over a 1000 miles on my car last weekend. Sorry if I couldn't slap some slicks on it and blow up my crap $400 clutch for your enjoyment when I needed to make another 400+ mile round trip on Sunday.

This is my last post as Team Bunny is going Black.

 

I didn't meant to be spiteful.
I don't know about everyone else but I guess I'm just disappointed that there won't be an exciting race between you guys, at least for awhile.

 

I havent raced my car in almost a year, first because I was battling a problem that turned out to be a loose timing chain. Then we swapped in a 10-bolt so we could rebuild my 9-bolt, a week long project that has turned into 6 months. Lastly, I broke a valve spring in March and that took a month to refresh the engine and make it stronger. If I wasnt running on this borrowed 10-bolt, I would be at the track racing you, Jerry, Randy, Rusty, Vince, whoever. There is no animosity here. I held the title for a while and now there is a lot of competition for the top spot. Everyone deserves a turn. But I think you guys are being very cocky, and yet selective about who you race. Jerry's car is now competitive, running the same times as you guys, and yet you arent calling him out like you did to Vince and me. You're suddenly making excuses why the car is retired. Some are the same and some are different from the last time. My excuse has always been the same.

 

Well you can talk about me not going to the track all you want, but this isnt about me James nor am I here to count the number of timeslips I have collected over the past 5 years. Its alot more than you think though, in that time I have multiple slips from 5 different cars. I also know when you're screwing around, but so was I and you sure took it hard. You know what they say... If you cant take the heat, stay the hell out of the kitchen. Especially if Dwayne's cookin.

This whole post, all you have done is constantly affirm how you dont want to run a faster car than yours, for a myriad of reasons... mostly claiming its not fair because he has different/better mods. I dont really understand that, if we all had to run NA 350's with Superrams and AFR190's with LPE cams it'd get pretty damned boring watching the low-mid 12's go by. Personally, I wouldnt mind seeing you run Jerry. With all the claims of 12.6 to 12.9, it should be pretty close anyway, would be a good race to watch even if you did lose. Hell I would even have ran Jerry on Saturday if I had brought pants and shoes with me to the track.

So... Vincent didnt show up when you called, not my problem. About the only thing I agree with is that I understand you not wanting to break the glass clutch, I dont want to break my car either and I dont enjoy watching someone push their car around because of worthless parts. I'd rather see 2 cars race and go home under their own power, no matter who's the winner. Just keep Mike away from the clutch pedal and it should be just fine.

 

Kevin and Madmax state that I have been selective on who I've raced. What race have I turned down that I was available to race? Since last Setember I have raced my car once at the dragstrip, and that was at Irwindale several weeks ago in an honest attempt to give Vincent a fair race and not beat him in front of everybody. The race wasn't even mentioned on the board out of respect for him. The truth is I just haven't raced my car in almost a year, which dissapoints me when you guys state I have been a weeny and have been selective about who I race. I feel that is a pretty ignorant and pathetic line to take and utterly untrue.

I don't know how you guys can say I have been selective on who I will race when I haven't raced. You guys must be Democrats. I told all of you, many times, I wouldn't race my car until I finished my truck. And I stuck with that promise until I was able to go to Irwindale a week after I couldn't race Vincent at that same track. Thats it.

We haven't ever picked or chosen who or when we want to race no matter what you chose to believe. I am simply not going to race my car 2 weeks before I go on vacation and when I'm too busy to fix it if it breaks. Sorry to dissapoint you folks. I never said I wouldn't race Jerry. I will, and Mike will too. It just won't happen in the next month due to commitments.

I will be honored to race against Jerry. And I know Mike and I have a good chance at winning, just as Jerry does. Most of you can only dream about being competitive against Jerry. Any mods I do will only level the race. My goal was to race the maunual trans 350 cars, not the strokers or high-stall autos. In order to compete against them will take a few more or different pieces. team Bunny was the first to break 12's in a NA 350 and I'm sure by the time we are done we'll have impressed you all with an even better performance. So take a chill-pill and let things take care of themselves.

If you guys want me to race any time soon I'll be more than happy too. Just collect $400 for a new clutch because this one isn't going to make it, I guarantee that, and dedicate the time to fix it for me or pay Don to. You can paypal me at jfearn@socal.rr.com and when I receive the $400 I'll schedule a race day so all you can watch. Since you guys want a race so bad I expect to have the money by this weekend and Don should have a clutch for me my mid next week. I really appreciate you guys puttting your money where your mouth is. It really is great knowing you guys want a race so bad you are willing to suppport the local sport that much. I'm on my 4th clutch in less than a year and luckily the last two were warranteed free for me. Right now I have neither the time nor will to crawl under my Z28.

 

So we're starting a James' clutch trust fund?

Change your panties James, they're getting bunched up.

 

Whats wrong with that, buddy?

 

I’ve never backed down from a race with anyone. Who was in the lane next to Jerry when he ran his 11.6 on the juice? I was and it wasn’t because we just happened to run at the same time. I chose to run him even though I knew I was going to lose. My credo is and always has been that I’ll run anyone, any place, and at anytime. As far as the Bunny is concerned damaged clutch or not I’d be at the track lining up with anyone that wanted to especially Jerry. But unfortunately it isn’t my car. James has made the decision not to run the car until his prior commitments have cleared. As his teammate it is my responsibility to back his play 100%. Weathering this storm of ridicule is par for the course.

Trust me I would like nothing more than a warm summer evening filled with smack talking & photo finishes but I’m afraid it’s not going to happen anytime soon.

 

....and it wasn't that long ago that we didn't even have this many cars running such 'close' times.

 

Funny how smack talk turns to defensive novelettes.

 

Dude you’re hilarious! When did you start doing comedy? I tell you what my little beady eyed friend you’ve got a heads up foot race the next time we all get together. I cant wait to see the look on your face when 300+lbs of raw girth smokes your ***.

 

I’ve never heard so much track trash talk from people who are never at the track. Team Bunny was at the track all last summer tuning and breaking stuff. Team bunny has showed a commitment and dedication to racing only shown elsewhere by the IE boys. Who busted their tranny in their truck and still made two passes down the Ľ-mile at WOT? Team Bunny. When Team Bunny is at the track we’ll accept any and all challenges. When at the track Team Bunny is willing to accept any outcome to the car or to the results. I ask you again, when have we said no to a race? Who have we denied a race to? When has someone asked for a challenge and we denied them? Nobody. Yet we are accused of picking and choosing races which were never called or even asked. This smoke and mirror double-standard democrat-BS will stop now. I am currently unable to race at the moment and unwilling to accept any immobility to my daily driver. That is a fact and clearly undisputable. However, I am using this time to be sure Team Bunny is competitive against Jerry, a feat which nobody else has dared try or has been willing to do, including all the yappers who cannot beat Team Bunny themselves and have to seek Jerry to do their deeds, as they are impotent challengers unable to step up to the plate and take a swipe themselves like a real man. You guys want a race, Team Bunny will step up and give you a race. So STFU, sit down, relax, make some popcorn, and think of some other conspiracy theories to dwell upon while wearing your tinfoil hats.

 

I cant wait to see your new set up run down the track James. I'm gonna have to go with a huge shot to keep up. Hopefully i can get my new setup installed in the next month to still keep up with you guys

 

You're on. I'll even pack on another 50+lbs in a backpack just to make it fair when I kick your ***.

 

Keep making random (and wrong) assumptions James...

 

If you don't understand what I said then you may be a dumb democrat. If you understood what I said and still have to ask that makes you a democrat in denial perhaps.

I think you need to enlighten yourself:

Yeah...cuz obviously George W. Bush is the most intelligent man in America

The only thing sadder than a certified retard as president is the people who vote for a retard.

 

I think your president needs to be enlightened
