Beating you up??? Highly unlikely ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif) I think we'll be chasing you for quite some time. ![[burnout]](graemlins/burnout.gif)
Well currently my car is minus 1 clutch, 1 tranny, and one set of headers. So I don't think you would have much a problem leaving me at the starting line ![[Wink]](wink.gif)
no clutch and tranny, so you are experimenting with some typoe of direct drive system, hmmm ![[Confused]](confused.gif) ![[Razz]](tongue.gif)

His car at least ran at one time and will run again this year

Thanks, but I don't think my car will catch yours, your car is just a beast man. I am set at only reaching 11.50, and I am done. No roll bars for me. maybe....

What can I say. Its just frustrating taking the car out and beating on it when its not running up to its full potential.

Once you hit your goal...You'll be thinking of what you can do to be faster on the way home from the track...
All I wanted was an 11 second slip...and now with that teaser of that damned 11.06 false pass, I have to get a 10 somehow, some way.

What RPM are you launching at? A 1.57 60' is nice.

I have a 4200 stall so from idle, I think it flashes at around 3500 when I mash on it.

the mustang runs right now, it has a stock motor but it runs
the cobra runs, has been running all year
and the vega should run if the machine shop would hurry up with my stuff

There were a couple times where my timeslips had no times on them at all...no reaction, 60', 330, 880, nothing. Weird.
Where were the regular TnT crew that works the track? The slip were a mess. They were scattered all over the table.
sorry about that, im not working wednesday or friday nights anymore, i just can't take working 8-10 hours a day then another 5 out at the track. right now on tnt's it's dave jr doing the track prep/pulling the lanes/tech/ usually starting, and one of the emt's doing the clocks. since dave and germane split up it's been a mess on friday nights since her dad used to do the timeslips. i hate to leave it like that but i physically can't work that much.

I saw him the first time a couple weeks ago. He definitely is 'tougher' but he is accurate and knows his stuff. If it wasn't for him I wouldn't have known my seat belts are up next month.

He's very thorough... My helmet isn't snell approved but he said I could still run yesterday, luckily for me. ![[Cool]](cool.gif)
