*LOL* I was just thinking, hey, We were there Wed.
Derrick, Denny, and I ran. I blew a head gasket though. Best time was an 11.60 at 120 mph. Seems it takes a little more power to push that rollbar down the track
If anyone is interested in rollbar installation, PM me . Took about half a day,and all night drinking.

Hey Geoff,
I got your proof!!! The time-slip printer got fixed afterwards so I went up and ran two more 12's. Clint was there along with Charlie too. My best was a 12.93 @ 105.88 MPH. Everything I did to the car is in my sig.

Too much boost I think. Went up to 27 pounds with alot of KR. I should have it running by this week. Getting ready for the 31st I hope.
Re: GOT IT!!!!

I actually meant you . We're still waiting for you to break the 12's. BTW thanks for the info on the torqe convertor, I had been driving around Kapahulu for 15min after talking to you was looking for a long stretch so I could nail it! But now I know it works now.

Hi Guys,
Thanks for the support!!! I was quite impressed when it ran a 12 sec run too. And than ran two more. I have no scan tool in the car and no boost gauge. I havent a clue how much boost I was running. The next time I run Ill try to hook one up. Im doing some heavy maintenance on the car right now so I may not be racing it for about a week or so. Im changing the main and rod bearings, timing chain, and probably the valve springs. I just want to make sure nothing breaks in there. Ill probably throw in a high volume oil pump while im at it. Guy, with the MPH you have run you are already in the 12's. You just need better 60's. Try SLICKS!!! John/Keith, thanks for the jinx on blowing head gaskets!!! Nah, I dont think it will but, who knows??? At least Im prepared for that labor, hehe. I think Im going to try some homemade tricks to the car to get it deeper in the 12's with the stock turbo and intercooler. Oh well, till then, thanks again!!! See you all at the tracks next time.
