So what exactly happened to your car Rick? Aaron said you heard a loud crack while driving and shut it down immediately.

Sounds lke some crazy shiznit happened last night

I'm guessing that truck driver was drunk and that's why he didn't stop.
What is it with stupid f-ing trucks in this town? Fu(king rednecks getting drunk and hurting people.

 

actually the truck did not hit anyone, he was actually slowing down because he saw there was an accident. then a big 4 door cut around him and slammed into scott's car door. then took off.
so actually it wasnt a drunk redneck in a truck. but probably one in a car though

 

Still though. Rednecks

 

Brooke(the girl) and Matt also got some good dyno footage, and also some good footage of wes kicking my butt. We also have one where I was ahead(so it at least looks like I am faster).
Also, I got my dyno sheet, and the measured RWHP is 309.5, and 320.5 ft-lbs of torque. Not what I wanted, but it is to be expected.

 

well,
the SOB now won't go anywhere cause it goes into a missfiring fit...
i think I might have gotten a hold of some bad gas, or AGAIN my fawking MAF took a fawking dump....
I am gonna change the plugs/wires tomorrow, change the fuel filter and put some of that Royal Purple fuel system cleaner in there to see if it helps...
oh well...
Rick

 

Sounds like you need to test drive another T/A

 

LOL....
Rick

 

he needs to ditch the TA and get a GN!!

 

I like going fast AND looking good while I am at it so GN's won't cut it...
