Well went to the track Saturday(Jackson SC). Anyway a friend of mine, was to come with his 2000 T/A, i get there early, my wife came in her car with my 4 son's(age's)10-9-7-6 let the mayhem begin
. The kids are like my on little cheering section, On sugar HIGH! Anyway, all knid of import swarm in EVO'S, Supra, ect. I pull in next to this guy with a mustang in a trailer, and he see me open the trunk to pull out the jack, and slick's and laugh's. I go to stage, go thru the water, and barely spin the slick's in, build to 2vac, and launch spinn sideways, forget to shift, and run a crappy time( im very nervous). Get back to cool down, he ask to see my ticket. 2.79(60ft) 1/8 mile 89mph, 1/4(13.90@111). So he want's to race me now, and bet money, i say no, he persist, i say ok $300. Nerves go away, and kill mode come's on! Get to the line again, he told me to drop the slicks down from 17 to 14psi i do. We line up, i just pull the vacum off, we lanuch he's 4car's out front, my O2's are 878 car is slugglish. All of a sudden boost kicks in, and bam! im at his door by the 1/8, the buick is pulling like a mad man! Beat him 5car's. He said i tricked him, i told him im testing the car for the first time, it should be way faster than it is! Long story short turbo spool slow all night dew to leaking crossover, but i only lost one race! That was to a 68 big tire truck with ton's of NOS, he got me 6 off the line, and only beat me by a half car, shooting 3stage's of NOS.
