Woot Lost to another 3rd genner! :)

Okay so I'm coming home from my friends house, and my buddy leaves at the same time (89 Formula 350 G92). So I didn't even pay any attention to racing but he comes up and I was like well give em a run...about 5 seconds earlier my check engine light came on, and I didn't notice anything to different, neway...so I'm in 2nd at about 35mph (not my powerband) and he takes off on me...he damn near walked me!!! Good race tho, we only went up to like 55mph cuz I had a girl in my car like flipping out (last time I ever let her ride with me). Good race tho, he got brand new stock L98 heads...do they take time to break in??? I'm hoping he will goto US41 when the midwest thirdgen.org runs so I can race him there after a few more mods, but my car felt like it wasnt running 100%. Afterwards I couldnt even grab 2nd gear!!! I think my alternator is bad...my amps are running low...pfft wait for the pullies -

It's hard racin when you're not in your powerband.

I don't think heads need time to break in.
