Little update from BG

[Quiky One]

No matter the turnout, BG is always fun. Meet great people, hang with friends, you can't be in a better atmosphere. Julio has the TAI class organized awesome and what a blast even if I don't have the fastest car.

Anyway, here is how the car ran.

1st pass off the trailer with new turbo and converter...16.5-18 psi 12.02 at 115. (New best)

2nd pass-20 PSI and 1.85 60' 11.701 @ 115 and change.

3rd pass-I tried locking the torque converter and pegged the 30 psi boost gauge..let out

4th pass-boost line to the map sensor blew off which means no alky...let out. This pass was .2 faster on the 1/8 mile than my 11.7 pass but who knows...I don't bench race.

So I will go out tomorrow morning and try again! Julio has me squared away with the boost line problem. He jinxed me!!

Thanks Jason

congrats Jason on gettin into the 11's

Thanks guys. It was an awesome weekend. Julio had the TAI class setup very well and I appreciate that. My goal for the weekend was to drive it on the trailer coming home and get into the 11's. I met both of them.

I knew I had a small exhaust leak going into it but did not have time to fix it prior. Sooooo, the small exhaust leak turned into a gaping hole. My last pass in the finals of the TAI class was made at 19-20PSI according to the powerlogger. My MPH was down 8 on that pass. The headers will be coming off soon to get fixed and I will be at it again.

JD and Julio both gave me very helpful tips on racing and setting up the car. We will see what happens next time out.

Thanks again to Julio for sponsoring the class, Chris Kober for donating money, as well as KDK performance. Heads up is the only way to go!

I am sure I left some stuff out but getting up at 4:30 and driving 620 miles sure whips ya.

What turbo and converter were you running?

If you are back home I could stop by and meet you tomorrow if you aren't busy or working. I am going to Springdale to pick up my 6776 from UPS since they can't seem to find my address here in Bella Vista

Crap. I didn't realize you were still in HS

Gimme a holler sometime after you get out of school. Hopefully there is something to do on the weekends up here or in Fayetteville? I have been itching for some street action since I left Texas.

Nice runs, that thing is moving.
