What do you think Vin?

I am headed down the 18th or 21st to Atco, lemme know if you can make it.


You can take your bottle back :wink:

Yea sure why not. THe car has been on the back burner for a while now. I still need to find skinnies and get new injectors. But I'll be down to see what I can run in basically full street trim. I'll race ya for that $20 that you owe me for borrowing the bottle!

ok sounds good. By then most of school load should be minimal and I usually have off of work on tuesdays and thursdays. Fridays are no good for me so try to make it for the 18th. If not we can always get the run off on the weekend if your willing to spend the extra entrance fee($25 instead of $15).


I haven't been back to the track since the day I went and raced you...I think getting beat by an LT1 is what did it...

incase any1 has forgotten...

and don't worry, video footage will be much better this time around. I can even mount the camera on my rear fender so you can watch your car in the mirror:moon:

Heh, yea we both cut some atrocious 60 ft times... don't worry, I'll be on full race wheels this time round, and the N20 will be on this time. ;)

Better be ready to see some taillights.

Your a ****ing *******! lol. I was planning on buying a wave runner real soon, but since it seems like you took the time to actually set up your car this time, I may have to do some tweaks...the car is going to need a re-tune when I get the injectors anyway....hmmm:twisted:

I don't know how its gonna launch on the slicks, so don't get to scurred.

Well it looks like I've got a few weeks to get things situated. I've gotta focus on some AP tests and college placement tests for the next ~2 1/2 weeks, so I wouldn't count on my car changing. Only thing that would change is if I ever decided to install the nitrous kit I have, but I hardly drive the car now because the power is useless on street tires(which is what is on the car 99% of the time), so there really is no need for nitrous unless I'm shooting for 10's.

vinny what size injectors you looking for? I have a brand new set of 55lb F.A.S.T injectors
only used on dyno and had to go bigger,
paid $650 will let them go for $450

Those are too big for me...I'm making power, but not crazy power. I'll be in the market for some 42lb ones shortly. If I get the injectors before this race, I might as well throw the nitrous on the car since it'll be getting a re-tune for the injectors anyway...

S.J.SLEEPER
04-21-2010, 09:43 PM
think 55lb ers' are too big? I got 96lb. injectors on the way to me. chet !!! never thought I would put that big of an injector in a car!

note: 96lbs rated @ 43.5 psi, I will be runnig 60-65psi so they are more like 120's!!!

LTb1ow
04-21-2010, 10:52 PM
So Vinny, you gonna get some good vids?

I need to know how the car leaves the line etc...

I'll be there tuesday for the race. THe slicks and skinnies have been on the car for 2 weeks and I don't like riding them around town. So after tuesday they are coming off the car. So the race is either happening tuesday or it's never going to happen. THis thread is over a month old, bout time to get this race off...

I am out.

NJ346
05-25-2010, 01:21 PM
sounds good. In all seriousness, my car may end up breaking down sometime tonight. I've been having some battery issues in the past couple of weeks so I think the alternator might be on the verge of quiting. I'm bringing a battery charger and jump starter pack just in case. I'll be down there around 5. See the circus there:-P

THanks, but it has a lot to do with the moser 9in rear, 3.5 inch driveshaft, Hoosier QTP's, and a monster level 3 clutch. The only thing I really have to do is dump the clutch from 6500 and hope that nothing breaks haha.
