Where did you get the tires and how much are they charging you?
Do you have or know of anyone that has a stock proportioning valve for a disk front drum rear Mustang. My rear brakes don't work and I suspect the proportioning valve. I am going to change the master cylinder first, since I can still buy those.

if we were planing to race on the 8th then i can't go. Just found out today that i have a two day presentation on Nov 6-8th. hitting the freeway after 2:40 from hayward is just asking for trouble. I'll be there this wednesday, the 1st. We could race in two days since you already got your tires. Let me know Don.

I WIN! Jersey wusses out so I WIN!!!
I have 17" tires, but no wheels....... Cannot go regardless until the 8th, as I said a few times.

THAT'S WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR JERSEY
Craig, I got them off Ebay for $340 "shipped!" I ordered them over the telephone on Thursday afternoon and they were at my doorstep today! [ October 30, 2006, 07:11 PM: Message edited by: hidnn.o.s. ]

Nice, so now I call Weld back regarding the wheels and the guy on the phone says, "You know these cannot be driven on the street AT ALL right? They are made to go straight down the track and are not rated to handle corners AT ALL."
Now I have to find 17" wheels for this car that are light.........

What wheels did you get? Also what type of tire are you going to use? I ran alumastars, prostars, draglites and bogarts. I've also used just about every slick or drag radial out there. Just wondering what combo you are going with.

If it doesn't rain on the 8th I'll be out there but I'll be driving my Dodge Dakota truck. The Mach1 is still in stock trim because I had to take it in for warranty (new tranny again).
Jersey, if you get there too late to line up with Don in a time trial there is always the Thanksgiving weekend event. The track prep and air is always better on the weekend. Although, these last two Wednesdays at the track have been really fast conditions due to no wind and good air.
Jersey, maybe you should give your car a quick tune up too. Synthetic motor oil, new plugs and gap them correctly. Don won't need a fresh tune up since his car is brand-spankin'-new!! It doesn't really matter who wins as long as you beat the Camaro's
I raced a 2002 Camaro SS with gears, cam, heads,intake, stickies, exhaust and 150 wet nitrous, in a time trial a while back. I was in my Mach1 with gears, CAI, stickies, exhaust (stock headers) and I completely annihilated him. I treed him, got a better 60ft and a better ET. I ran a 12.58@107 to his 13.03@112 (have video). He had a faster car but screwed that run up after he told me he was going easily beat me. His best run that night was only in the 12.40's... pretty sad since my engine is stock and I ran a 12.41 with it. Chalk one up for Ford.
It was also pretty sweet taking out the 2007 Shelby GT500 last week in my truck!
Hope to see you guys at the track next week.
Good luck to both of you. [ November 04, 2006, 10:55 PM: Message edited by: Mach1Pony ]

Ron, if it doesn't rain you need to race the Mach 1 in stock trim. We can see how it does compared to Don's 06. It will still be in the 12's.

That'll be cool. I couldn't get the wheels in time so I'll be on the stock 235's again.

Damn you guys! I am finally getting back out there and I was looking forward to watching your battle. Don, borrow Tony's wheels. Will they fit an 06? I am sure Tony will rent them to you for $50.
Jersey, get your sick ass out there and run the car. Just don't talk to me because I don't want to get sick.
I will be running the 93. I am going to try and make a couple last smokey runs down the track before I pull the motor. Hopefully I wont have to get towed home! I took it out for a quick blast Sunday night and the dipstick pushed out about 6 inches and blasted oil all over the place. I still need to clean it up. I took the zip tie off that I had holding the dipstick in so I could add oil. It felt slow, so I don't know if it will hit the 11's. My ET Streets are really bald, so they may not let me run them.
See you there, Craig

Don, I am very disappointed in you. Work, what the hell is wrong with you! You need to leave early and get that 06 out there. I have been wanting to check it out and see you run it down the track!
Stop screwing around on the internet, get your work done early, and then head out there.
Jersey, you may want to re-think the getting me sick part. If you get me sick, and I get my two kids sick, I can guarantee you that my Wife will hunt you down. Just kidding, she will just kill me. She is already pissed at me spending time and money on the car, so if I come back from the track sick, it will be all over for Craig.
Anyway, the air should be good tonight. However, I took my car out last night for a quick run and I was not getting all my boost. The belt must be slipping, but that damn thing is super tight. It may have gotten oil on it when I raced an 03 Cobra the other night and I didn't have my dipstick zip tied in and it shot out 6 inches and spit oil everywhere. Did I mention that I need a new motor!
