So my sleeper Talon should be good to get a run off? Do they pop the hood up at all?

11secdsm 08-03-2012 04:09 PM

Some guys pop the hood, others don't. If it's pretty subdued, they probably won't.

outlawzxblizz99 08-03-2012 11:09 PM

I think I'm gonna try next week

stover 08-04-2012 12:35 AM

yea normally they dont make you pop the hood unless they have reason to suspect somethings up or may be "rigged"

outlawzxblizz99 08-04-2012 01:00 AM

VETTE_50_TH 08-04-2012 02:03 AM

Easy way to remove solid crystallized coolant from an assembled shortblock (NO accys)? i need the passages cleared, especially @ the waterpump hole.

(I'm doing a forum build car so Alex said ask the forum) LMFAO

HaveBlue83 08-08-2012 02:19 PM

stover 08-09-2012 09:24 PM

ahh i wont make the shootout, ill be down for atco anyday though, my cars been driving me insane, its like every bolt on the car has decided to come loose or back out, first i lost 3 turbo to manifold bolts, then my power steering pump fell off, then the bracket for the alternator came loose, i just dont know why everything is coming loose

2g Talon 08-10-2012 10:04 AM

lmao.. how the hell did you lose 3 turbo manifold bolts? Gravity defying bolts lol

11secdsm 08-10-2012 12:06 PM

Did you go through the whole car and make sure everything is up to par? They might have already been loose? Grease on the threads?

Tru2Blu 08-10-2012 12:16 PM

Has anyone on here launched 5speeds on 26 Inch slicks? couldnt find any smaller damn tire that would fit a GST wheel.

11secdsm 08-10-2012 03:22 PM

Yes...both 26" and 24.5".

blackvr4 08-10-2012 03:36 PM

Is it much more difficult to launch on the 26s? Also is it much more damaging to the car to launch on such a large tire?

I checked every single tire manufacturer and could not find a damn thing in 24.5 for a 16. I know the 24.5 is more ideal for 5speeds.

11secdsm 08-10-2012 04:09 PM

I don't know If there are any off the top of my head. Why not go with a 15" wheel? Most that run 16" go with a 26" slick.
