Maybe Ill show up...Don't know if i'll run my car, no point really with street tires. [Frown]

Well I bailed out at 8:30 cause the car was'nt pulling good times. I ran a string of 11.5's @ 117 with a terrible 1.8 60 ft. I am pretty sure My cat's are plugged & I will be ordering up some new tires this weekend. It was good to meet a few new people and hope You had better #'s than I did [patriot] .

I saw a black one run a 9.80 or so, and he was pretty goofy top end I know it had more in it. It was newer then yours though-or atleast newer than the picture. Word is it was you?

SmokinLX.... did you ever get a clean pass at all? I didn't see your car run the last few times because I was talking with the old guy with the Cuda.

Nice to meet you, and I hope you get everything sorted out.

I appreciated all Your help! I came to the conclusion that My cat's are plugged. I just bought a set of longtubes and matching H pipe from a board member "thank's Javi" which should get Me back to where I was and maybe a little more. I am ordering some new tires as Mine are on their 2nd season and at least 100 passes on em. Hopefully I will see You out there again this summer [patriot] . Did You make any progress on Your ride?

Hey man I was in a jeep Friday night and I bet I had more fun than you foos!! But anyway ya I heard that the supra was all over the track and never made a full pass. I heard that the civic had a big turbo on it too. That's cool!! I would like to run against that supra it would be fun but I think I will chop him off easily. The supra guy is on the same message board as I am. He said he never wanted to go back to Sac again because the track sucked. He also said that besides the civic there were really no fast street cars that night. Looks like the imports gave the domestics the beat down!!!

I decided to not make any passes because the clutch fork geometry needs some more work. It just didn't feel right, and I knew that I didn't have near enough air gap. No sense in tearing something up, or burning up a disc. They gave me a rain check, so I will be out there as soon as I get it back together.

I hear Ya that is why I left, no need to tear up the car just to run slow. Post up when You are going and I will try to make it. I am hoping for another cool friday night over the next couple week's cause it suck's racing in high 90's low 100 degrees air.

Does sac ever prep for this shit? Because if they don't then I don't want to go either. I heard from others as well that the track was not prepped and that it really sucked. Its not worth the hassle if its going to be like this. That supra was all over the track and he's slow compared to me. I'd hate to go with all the power I have and waste my time. I'll just race at Cummins Speedway!!

Oh, what do you mean by goofy top end? How much more do you think it has?
