NO hi ho for me- get this

VIDEO NOW INCLUDED

1st pass of the night went like this. 1.41 60-9.10@150.6 not bad but spun the tires. track was cold and prep sucked as usual, car always cuts 1.30 60's

so we adjust the limiters. maybe alittle to much lol next pass stand the car on the bumper(again) breaks the plastic wheelwell cover so we rip that out. get the car al set to make another pass.

car goes 9.12 @ 150.4 but just as it passed the finish line there was this loud ass explosion sound. i could'nt believe what happened. the whole back lexan window,deck lid,spoiler rip the f off the car @ 150 mph talk about scary. glad jr was driving tonite. anyway some of the damage



going to acess the damages and the cause tommorrow i've had enough of that car for 1 day!!! kinda think this might of had a part. it should have a pin coming though it and it looks like it may have rusted and that corner of the window lifted the all hell broke loose

I still think those are awesome runs. Would be nice to see the vid of the car on the bumper. Sucks about the damage though.

1.41 60-9.10@150.6 is better than the time in your sig, new best?

[SteveR]

Sucks about the damage, doesnt look too bad though. Isn't that a new best et and mph?

[baddest434]

new best mph but i got a 1.28 60 @ atco and i've gone a best of 9.10 twice. i might have some video tommorrow. my sons gf was video taping and wasn't expecting to see the car go straight up so i'll check it out tommorrow she what she caught. if nothing else i'll get a nice still picture from it.

edit believe me it pretty bad . wing is shot deck lid bent but i'm hoping i can use the glass still. it also broke alot of the plastic thats goes around the back of those cars

edit it is as bad as it looks. wing is shot deck lid bent but i'm hoping i can use the glass still. it also broke alot of the plastic thats in the back of those cars

if the video includes the parts coming off you have to share it.
& i think you can find those parts on here (not the wing though), j0n is parting out some 3rd gens

[baddest434]

i wish i had close up video of the thing blowing off the car at a buck fitty

[79CamaroDiva]

atcos 60s are always insanely fast, i swear their 60' clocks are either 55' or they have them positioned differently than most tracks.. congrats with the new best, its still a damn good time even though you were hoping for 8s. you'll definitely get them this season.. thats too bad about the damage. hopefully you'll find someone selling something that will set you up.

[WayFast84]

Damn man that sucks!! could have been alot worse though! gl finding the parts and gettin her back together!!

[Mike]

do you think something broke back there when you put it on the bumper in the second run?

[baddest434]

no one of the hinges on the top of the window broke and lifted just enough to catch the air and it just ripped it off. worse part was the rain driving home with my car looking like an el camino i be back together soon!!

[Mike]

lol good.....im trying to have my header patched and new parts in to go to atco on the 24th or etown on the 25th, my friend will have his notchback back on the road and we will be going heads up shooting for 11s

[baddest434]

i'll try to be ready then but this is kind of an expensive fix. the glass is shot i hoping i'd still be able to use it cost 250 bucks to replace. the deck lid 150 bucks for a fiberglass one and the wing almost 300 bucks. so thats 700 bills and i don't know how i get this one pass the wife for a while i just dumped 500 into it last week. i'll find a way though

[baddest434]

[baddest434]

thank you paul i'll let you know. and that vette is sweeeeeeet!!!!!! and he drove it there thats the best. i more than likely would have beat him with a clean run. i was running 9.10 but it would have been cool race to have on vid.

[Jersey_TA]

damn work computers owning me lol. I have to wait until I get home to check out the vid.
