it's the monthly street war event, this time the weather is going to be around 73*, not 96* like last month..

Last that i know, Brent and I are going to run the GN's.. Wicked is MAYBE running, but we will see if he backs out..

post up if anyone else is thinking about stopping by or racing

I hope you didn't turn up your fuel pressure to 60 psi .

play it safe so you can come out and play on a 1/4 track ...

new rear shocks will be in today, hopefully that will help the 60ft's.. rocker shafts and push rods all look OK, so i'm re-installing them tomorrow and should have the car up and running my night time..

with the temp and air they are calling for this weekend, i can see higher boost in my furture :biggrin: ..

The PSI is so high you can hear the pump from your home town in Nicaragua.

Just got 1 run in and got kicked out:biggrin: ran 24lbs launched with 10lbs
ran a 7.06 fish tailling off the line till half track ,the lane i got sucked, guess it might be time for a cage

IM THERE for sure i'll take the "fontana risk". I call it that because you never know if you'll even get in the place let alone get more then a few runs in alll day. But w/e school and house life suck so I'd love to be there! Anyone bringing food? or beer or drinks? Should we set something up? Fontana sure is a looong day.

I can buy a bunch of shi t to bring if everyone wants to make a list of shi t they want and then all chip in when I get there. I got a cooler if needed. Just a thought, or I can be the lunch whore and go get food for everyone if someone buys mine!

Still deciding one wheather or not to bring a camera. How many runs you guys think you'll have?

MAN was it windy and thats saying it nicely .. had to be 30 mph head wind with gust up to 45mph.. still ran 1/4 mile but it was a hand full on the top end..

made 3 runs 10.33, 10.39 and 10.38.. first two were at 129mph and my last was at 132.9mph..

Brent.. sorry to hear about your problems.. there is always next month for that 10 sec slip

 

[Underboost]

Well like Nordy said, real bad head wind. I made one pass and noticed my oil psi up around 60psi in the pits . I was told blue smoke was coming out of the exhaust down the track. I pack up and went home, no point in pushing it.
