I was going to finally run my car this weekend but I fudged up the rear differential cover. My cheap @ss torque wrench is way off and cause my rear cover bolt to snap off. Im in the process of drilling it out. Grrrgggh!

WOOO HOOO...I did my personal best on Friday (01/04) even though I lost to my brother's integra. My car was #106..I think the only TR that night...I didnt see any other TR's out on Friday. 15.616@89.46mph r/t...(you guys going laugh)1.441. My 60ft was 2.510. It was on the spare heads i'm running...nothing special was done to the heads. It still had its original valve trane. and with no fuel upgrades and 12psi. Only other upgrades was the chip Garreth (85zoom) gave to me and the electric fan. I was spinning and hopping the back end like crazy...probably cause my tires close to being bald and I was behind a fricken Honda and he left some water up to and passed the stage lines (damn FWD cars) If I had some drag DOT radials (soon) then maybe i could see 14s. Just to let all of you know...my best time before I downed the TR was 16.2something@some-shìtty mph. weird part was i recall my 60ft times being better..like 2.3 or 2.2...something like that. Well...I hope to see you guys next time out.

Hey Guys!!

Unless it rains again, Ill be at the track tonight (1/5). It was raining slightly earlier but, the sun is out and Im hoping to have a good night of racing. I fixed my boost problem too. Had a bad vacuum line to the wastegate! I hope to see some low 11's to high 10's (hopefully!) See you guys later!

Yea, Where was everyone tonight? The track was empty was a good night to run even had the wind to our back. I guess you have to see him run next week.

250 DEGREES!!!!!!!!!

Hey Guys,
Yes, I did run last night. Where was everyone?? Oh well, I didn't get to push my car as hard as it could have been due to bad coolant that foamed up and caused my engine to overheat (very fast) By the time I pulled up to the tree, the temp. was at 220 deg. and when I got back to the pits it hit 250! So I took it easy on the car and still ran a 14.5 at 98 MPH. I honestly wasn't even trying cause I didn't want to break anything. That night before I left, I flushed the coolant out with fresh water and the problem went away. Ill try to go again this coming weekend but, Im not sure yet. I also need a better fuel pump too.
See you guys later,
Derek
