Tristate drag raing @ Atco, 8/21-The raindate

[peteyturbo]

Dude the camera must have got switched to low resolution..sucks big time as theese videos would have been awesome..I will post some up anyway. We really need Tim to come through and put up some hd quality either on VIMEO or the site that he knows..
Tonight was awesome, it was like a mitsubishi beatdown as there were like 10 evos there today. I managed a new best as well as Matt..Good times Look for the videos in the gallery section.I need new suspension and need the car to hook up. All I did was literally blow the tires off and bellowed smoke off of them. The car went 11.5@125mph. Im hoping to see some videos. Petey did real good tonight though.

yea...sooo...My buddy Brian decided to get on the car while cruising next to a Cobra on the race track in jersey. The Cobra got a jump on him, but he started to reel him in. Revs 3rd out and thought the clutch slipped because the car just fell on it's face. Turns out it wasn't the clutch. The car starts smoking like a pothead at a Dave Matthews concert. He limped home the rest of the way. I talked to Rich at Fuzion and he said more likely than not, he popped a piston. The car is being dropped off at Fuzion on Monday and he'll have it for a little while to check things out and fix everything on it probably.

Other than that, good night. Got some good video and some good rolling shots of Derek's Evo (Evo8kid). Definitely loving the new lense.

dude 125 is nasty, I was hanging right with you until you spooled up in 4th and pulled away from me, just as I was shifting to 5th (FAIL)
Looks like I am #10 in the country on a list with cars running much more agressive setups then I am on the stocker..Pretty happy with my car as well, I think she has another tenth left in her:mrgreen:So how long do you think this stock motor will hold up??

[peteyturbo]

I thought the whole fire jacket thing was at e-town not atco? I haven't been to atco in about a year so maybe i missed some new rules.

Matt, when are you throwing some slicks on those FD wheels?

[mrchariybrown]

hey, ray and whoever else is going down today. what time are you guys leaving? and are you guys meeting up somewhere beforehand?

[car optics]

I had a fun time last night. The weather was perfect, lots of imports and a I Got a new best! More runs would have been nice, but it has been worse.

The slicks will be on the slipstreams next year if I still have the car. :mrgreen:

wait... If you still have it? I can't see you getting out of the dsm game any time soon.

I thought you picked up fd rx-7 wheels recently, when you get slipstreams? Those with slicks will look nasty on your car.

I have an offer right now for my car and its pending sale. We will see how everything goes.

[shuttlegoose]
