Just a little start up and tease. I will be at Irwindale tomorrow night taking track vids and will post them up later this week. Hope to see some of you tomorrow -

Which one of those green lights in the car is your mood ring? Man, you have a handle on everything in that one. I'm sure your neighbors loved that video as much as we do!

 

Your neighbors must have loved that burnout

 

So concerned for the neighbors...lol

Relax, I am lucky enough to live in a neighborhood where we don't mind our kids riding quads and bikes down the street and we play with our toys when safe. I wouldn't have done it there otherwise.

The streets are filled with black marks that weren't by me...lol

 

I know I responded on another forum, but congrats again Mark!! I can't wait to see it in person!

 

No Don, it is I who need to give the to you...

You have how many hundred passes on your car now?????????

I have always used your car as a milestone.... wait a minute - maybe I should be cursing you!!!

 

sweet Mark!!!!!!!

 

No cursing please. lol

I have 300+ runs on the new motor now (600+ total on the car)... but you'll hand me my azz the first time we line up against each other. Unless of course I break out that little voodoo doll to even things up a bit.

 

I have to work late tomorrow, I was planning on going. How about April 7th at CA Speedway? Are you gonna be there? I really want to see the car.

 

Oh man.....

I can't wait to see what come next!

 

Not much fun last night...lol

Well I went to irwindale and got some vids but ran into a little snag. The shop forgot to change the plugs before bringing the car down. Had two foulded plugs so it wasn't much fun.

My first pass blew the intake elbow off in the burnout box so I had no throttle and had to idle down the track. Very embarrassing - a 36.9 @ 4 mph !!!! LOL

Tightened the elbow back down and ran two more passes and was fouling out in the top end of 2nd and third and was only able to lay down a 7.4 on both passes at 94 mph. Still pretty good considering fouled plugs and the car did leave pretty hard at half throttle. At 1/2 throttle, I 60' a 1.54 and a 1.60.

Put new plugs in and going to perris tonight to see what she's really made of when running right. Vids to come...

Mark

 

I don't know if I'm more impressed with the 7.4 with fouled plugs or the 36.9 at idle!

I can't wait to see the videos from tonight!

 

I was thinking the 1.54 & 1.60 at about 1/2 throttle was pretty impressive!
