Unhappy April 12th Norwalk Results

STUPID STUPID LS1 CRAP!!

Im so frickin disappointed in my car Im ready to sell it and ALMOST now regret selling my damn Ecotec Cavy!!!! I could NOT get my POS SS under 13.40 AGAIN which is starting to really **** me off since the car ran 13.05 on bald crappy tires, and now it wont even get out of its own frickin way!!!

Maybe its just too cold outside yet... Maybe the tracks too cold or somethin.... How bout Brandons GT runnin 12.40's.... heh lucky bastard

My results

Oh ya, I made it to 42 and 303 in exactly 40 minutes taking 303 all the way out and to my house in 55 min. That way was MUCH faster.

EDIT: Norwalk sucks *****. Eat it Chuck. Same 60' times at both tracks and my slip was 2 mph faster and 2 tenthes faster at 42. Hmmmm. And at least at 42 you dont have to wait 2 years before each run.

It must have been all tracks then coz D42 wasn't too goo either. I was spinning all the way to the 330' mark even with my drag radials down to 9 psi. The relocation brackets and subframe connectors did no good for me. I only ended up dropping 0.085 off my previous best ET but gained 7.39mph.

Best ET was 12.531 @ 115.44mph with a 2.059 60ft

Best mph was 117.72mph

Heres my saga

12.5 is not too bad dude. I talked to a few peoiple from D42 last night... Jim (97 Stock TA, red, 4.10's) said he couldnt hook up for anything there and neitehr could anyone else... I think that the tracks are jsut too cold yet, its gotta be ... I should be faster, Ryan should be alolt faster specially with slicks, and everyone should be faster...

Guys also whats it mean when you try to powerbreak and there is a bang noise and traction control gets knocked on I think i F'ed something up in my rear end lol... it made some wierd noises last night and this morning... Hmmm...

I know when my car was mildly modded it would make like popping sounds once in a while when I was jumping on it, but only when turning right?

D42 will allow you to run some ok times without getting beat to death tech wise. But we will see how D42 reacts when I start squeezing into the high 10's in street trim...but I know 11's they could care less.

At least you still have a whole season to get these things worked out.
