HOW ?? I asked a dude and he said it would have to be tomorow because there was nobody in the booth . This sound right ??

 

he told me we had to wait till tomorrow if it was rained out we would get either a rain check or a refund. i just didnt want to drive all the way back out there.

I got my money back??? I told them I wouldn't be coming tommorow. Give them a call tommorow to double check on that.

I ran consistently 13.4 all day, although my mph kept fluctuating from 101-105

13.41@104 is my time of the day
best R/T .057

 

Yeah its a bit of a pita to drive back . I might just phone tomorow first and make sure someone will be there .

Thanks man !! Time for a spec III carbon fiber

 

nope im buyin a mcloed. a havent heard any complaints about it but i have heard a few about the spec clutches, not a lot though. i'll fork out the extra doh for something i know will grab hard.

 

LOL

at best you will get a rain check

That is what they told us last time

 

Mine was a day of learning and I expected that. My bets was 12.35 which was not a personal best but I did have a new top speed of 122 + mph.

On three of my four runs I missed shifts - and the log to prove it. I have spent the last few hours with Rashpaul looking at my logs, tune and time slips and he has told me that there remains LOTS of upside in the tune however my logs did not have my air intake temp so I need that before advacing the timing. The car was also running on the rich side. I saw a best of 13. psi boost

I was still burning off the ET Streets and it appears I had the tire presusure WAAYYYYYYYY to high. I was still spiniing them in 2 nd gear. Of course they were at 18 lbs cold and Rash says I should have them at 10 - 12 lbs. Of course he also said that would result in an interesting experience with the 275 tires up front. hmmmmmmm.

Payam had a bad day. In fact he and Rash and I have spent the last two hours getting his reaerwheels off. DO NOT ASK but lets say the Sideways is having a REALLY bad string of bad luck. The POS lug nuts that Mopac sold him have destroyed about three of his wheel studs and we had to use an angle grinder to get them off. In addition, three other studs literally broke off as we tried to get the lugs loose.

Mine were problematic but there is obviously a problem with these lug nuts.

If the weather looks OK, I'll be going tomorrow. I want to run and win lots of prizes.

 

i never shop at mopac anymore they are really starting to blow.

go back to mopac and be like listen beatchs.... is that like a safety hazard???? they should give u all new studs and everything

 

I like my new roller rockers & springs, in this type of weather it usually runs high 13.7's to 13.9's+, happy with a sting of 13.6's @ 102mph & decent traction.

 

I'm not sure if I'll go tomorrow...depends.
Best time was 13.154
Best mph was 103.68
The car was making decent power. I couldn't hook the drag radials when stalled to 3000...had launch at 2700 at best. I think if it was nightime and cooler she would have picked up a few tenths...carbs really like cool air.
I weighed in at 3800 with me in it

 

holy poo.... was that with all ur tools and crap in it???

 

sh*tty day for sure

the stupid 12.5" ET streets wouldnt hoook worth crap ... one time i launched on the 2 step and the car sat there for a whole second . got me a 2.7 60' .. and the one time i sprayed a 75 shot i lost it in 3rd so had to let off ..

then the lug nut issue

goddamnit im gonna kill mopac

but many thanx to shaun and rashpaul .. rash is actually a very nice guy "this is the hot ticket item"

 

Buy some NEW tires and maybe they will hook...cheap *** J/k

 

i WILL BE GOING to Mission today if anyone cares.

I also need to try and borrow a 5 point hareness that is less then 2 years old AND I have two red 5 point harnesses forsale now.

Oh yeah.



I weighed 4050 lbs with me in it.

 

4050lbs........ holy smokes! Oh well, we know where a few of those pounds are though huh

Sorry to hear that the rest of the lug nuts packed up Payam, I was afraid of that.
