Slapout Nationals 2007 Results
Tonight, 1blk93Z, chance94z , and I hooked up and made a few runs. We dubbed it the first Slapout Nationals. Chance did not run as his car's paint has some minor flaws j/k 
He was MIA in race action due to some front suspension issues.
So here is the breakdown...
The first runfirst run Erik was traction limited, but still made an impressive run. Erik (1blk93Z) Left Lane, Godspeed1976 Right Lane.
The second pass he got his tires heated up good and made a much better run. Erik (1blk93Z) Left Lane, Godspeed1976 Right Lane.
We then did a fly by pass with my Formula in front, quickly followed by Erik's Z. The vid is long as I got on it so we started recording, but I realized I would be doing about 140mph+ by the time I got to the camera, and that's a bad idea on a backroad with a big corner approaching.
The last videolast video is the remains of Erik's tires after getting them properly warmed up. He decided to take the big chunks home and try to put them back on his tires with a heat gun. Not sure how it came out, but you can't keep a good redneck down. Get 'er Dooone!
Videos are Experiancing technical difficulties ATM.

I dont think so, but we can look. We can put your stickerchargers on too. Not to mention I just deposited the money for it all, so I'll be ordering stuff tomorrow!!! So everything is working out cept our gears. Vissus is talking mad trash so we got to get the Bird ready for war!! If I lose she is gonna make me kiss her feet at the tree....and that would be bad.
UPDATE!! Moneys in the bank I'll be ordering parts tonight so they should definately be in on the 3rd!! I also got us another hand to help. He is an import guy, but he is VERY good with a wrench.

Do you guys know whats up with Chance's Z? If not what is it doing, I know there is a vibration, but what else is going on?
Your car isnt slow Erik!! A donky with a 400 shot of nitrous could beat you. But I agree you need some SFC's. Cause...ummm if you dont have then then your frame will....uhhhhh crack in half and send you into a wall on the highway....and uhhhhhh then your wife wont have anyone to help with your son, and he will grow up with out a father....yeah, and ummmm turn to a life of crime, and fruit snack robberys. Yeah yeah thats the ticket!
Small price to pay for peace of mind I think. Run that by her and see what she thinks about that! Heh I just noticed you changed your sig. That is a lot of parts but you forgot th emost important one!! Hood Pins!!
