[Byrd]

First time evar! My 3rd and 4rth gears grind like no tomorrow but i'll see what she can do on low boost and overrun stock intake manifold.

[VDUBNDizzy]

Lagoon Park to the track far enough to break in rings? :tard:

[funinthecav3]

Lagoon Park to the track far enough to break in rings? :tard:
LOL...ahh rings are overrated.

[TheWill]

I might have to change my vtak fluid and head up there.

[zmasterB]

Lagoon Park to the track far enough to break in rings? :tard:

Shityea, lemme drive it :D



Hell, I might go out there........N2O+RHD car would = funny, if I get around to installing it.

[Swine]

Wont happen.:P

[XSivPSI]

Lagoon Park to the track far enough to break in rings? :tard:

Yea, break it in at the track. :rock:

seriously

[AUtigers350z]

Im thinkin meet up at Burger King on College St at about 7:15 and leave at around 7:30. Does that work?

[Jnic335i]

Who the fuck put you in charge I say we meet at Taco Bell on South College:nutonit:

[Byrd]

Who the fuck put you in charge I say we meet at Taco Bell on South College:nutonit:

Word, it's easier

[XSivPSI]

Word, it's easier

taco bell is on the wrong side of the road... pick something on the west side of college. Like McDonalds... that way we can ride out at the same time.

[dixond]

taco bell is on the wrong side of the road... pick something on the west side of college. Like McDonalds... that way we can ride out at the same time.

Blasphemy
Taco Bell > *
7:15 = Dinner time

[ANTIVNM]

Me and a few other F-Body guys might make it out there. Depends on what the weather does.

[Grider]

taco bell is on the wrong side of the road... pick something on the west side of college. Like McDonalds... that way we can ride out at the same time.

Ding! Winnar.

All you dumbasses saying Taco Bell, how are you going to get 10 cars out together across four lanes of South College on a Friday evening? :tard: If you want taco bell go get it in the drive through and then you kids meet up at that strip mall parking lot or McDonalds by the interstate. That way you don't have to go nuts out trying to catch up with who ever gets out first.

I will not be attending as the GF leaves Sunday for two weeks at Cornell.
my GF > you jacklegs.

Most of the time what Justin says doesn't make any sense so don't listen to him :meatwad:

McDonalds at 7:15 sounds good. Roll out at 7:30.

[ELE-BLUE95]

I'll be there, If the weather is good.

[Godspeed1976]

Ding! Winnar.

godspeed1976 > you jacklegs.

Damn skippy :P

I will not be there cause my car is slow, Eric has my DRs and my water pump is toast, and my new one wont be here in time.

[XSivPSI]

Ding! Fries are done.

[IronMonkey]

Anybody has an extra seat for me to tag along?

[ghostdriver]

fixed the gas pedal in the lsti...im ready to find out what this thing runs

[04HEMIGUY]

So who alls going and what ya bringing? Is greg going to bring the vette?

[AUtigers350z]

Anybody has an extra seat for me to tag along?

You're asian, you can ride in my trunk :P For real if I had a 3rd seat I would offer it to you. I'm sure you can catch a ride in my roommates LSTi though if you want to.

[XSivPSI]

I've got an open seat, its not a round trip though so you'd have to catch a ride back with someone else... I'm going to Enterprise after I leave the track.

[zmasterB]

Wont happen.:P

Happened :cool:


Just gotta go tomorrow & fill the bottle, & maybe knock some timing outta the tune up top, guess we'll see if my 210K mile $22 smoking motor likes an 80 shot :tard:

edit: Installed the VLSD while I was at it too, like thats gonna help

[h8ter]

Dewwwwiiiittt

[IronMonkey]

damn...im asian not mexican people....get that shit right!

Zmaster...14.5ish???

[zmasterB]

Zmaster...14.5ish???

I dunno....this car has the strongest running KA thats basically stock (it only has an air filter & the cat removed) that I've ever owned........I think it could do lowish 15's without the nawssssssss.

But I think its "quickness" or "strongness" is attributed to the fact that the car is missing about half its parts :P

O well if it lives thru this, its gettin' turbo'd pretty soon.......I bought the nitrous to use on the Z, so its coming back off. I installed it in literally an hour tonight, its Ghettolicious, complete with bungee cord (heebspeed spec) bottle holder :D

[Jnic335i]

its going to be the battle of the Z's tonight

[TheWill]

Anybody has an extra seat for me to tag along?
Yeah bring your asian ass up to mcdonalds at 7:15 and you can experience the Vtak

[Godspeed1976]

its going to be the battle of the Z's tonight

Dang that will take all night, you guys should let Brent go before you guys run. :P j/k!

[easy2speed]

What is the rundown on the Z's? Whose car has what mods and what color is each car? That way I know where to place my bets.

[ANTIVNM]

I'm bringing the slow silver Z out there between 6:30 and 7:00. I'll run anyone who wants to, because I be bringing my camcorder, and want to finally get some good drag footage.

I'll even race Brent in the m4d tyt3 JDM RHD car. :D

[VDUBNDizzy]

What is all this gayness about having to leave a parking lot at exactly the same time? You all know where the track is, quit being flaming tards and just get there. ;) I'm an idiot and shot a wrist pin clip off into the far blue yonder yesterday, so motor isn't built. Best of luck to you guys. And all you battle of the Z dudes, is anyone going to run a sub 13.5? :P

[TheWill]

Was the motor put together when this happened or were you doing assembly? ?

[VDUBNDizzy]

Was the motor put together when this happened or were you doing assembly? ?

Assembly.

[Godspeed1976]

I hate it when that happens....

Just falls or shoots off into last parts to be installed purgatory.

[AUtigers350z]

And all you battle of the Z dudes, is anyone going to run a sub 13.5? :P

Ahaha. My car is stock right now except for an intake filter. My white Z might have run sub 13.5s but I only expect to run 13.7 at best today. Not really going for a fast time, just wanna go faster than I can on the skreets and not have to worry bout cops :O

[04HEMIGUY]

And all you battle of the Z dudes, is anyone going to run a sub 13.5? :P

so what is going to be the quickest car down there? Trying to figure out if i want to waste the gas to watch 13.5+ runs.

[AUtigers350z]

Byrd's eclipse should be at LEAST 12s, the LSTi should break 12s.

[Pegasus_Red]

any one got any room for me?
Id like to come check it out

[IronMonkey]

alrite....will, whats your phone number? ill pm you mine rite now.

[Byrd]

Byrd's eclipse should be at LEAST 12s, the LSTi should break 12s.


If i'm not, i'll cry. Or I broke something.... and I'll still cry

[easy2speed]

Anyone going to be up for roll racing after the track? I wanna run my M3 against some stuff, but I don't won't to abuse its clutch at the track.

[VR4Rob]

Looks like Dani and I will be going. I've got 2 extra seats in the Tahoe if anyone (Brent?) needs a ride.

[Pegasus_Red]

when you meeting up and where? Id love a ride!

[VR4Rob]

when you meeting up and where? Id love a ride!
One seat taken, can fit one more :cheers2:

[xamraci]

One seat taken, can fit one more :cheers2:

oh the possibilities of what could be done with that statement...

[Crankee]

Where is Justin350z Been waiting for him to tell me if he is giving me ride to mmp.

[XSivPSI]

If i'm not, i'll cry. Or I broke something.... and I'll still cry

lol, you know you better see 11's;)

[ANTIVNM]

I bet that my car is the fastest "Z" car, since Brent's is out of commission right now. :D

[AUtigers350z]

Sweeeet :pimp: looks like it's going to be a nice turnout tonight.

Is anyone else bringing a camera/videocamera to the track tonight? All I have is my little Cybershot :dance: and I would like to get a few pics/vids of the Z :D


See everyone ~7ish at McDonalds.

[zmasterB]

I bet that my car is the fastest "Z" car, since Brent's is out of commission right now. :D
For the last time, there is only one "Z"- and its not "06" or "28" ;)

or 24 or 34 for that matter :P

[ANTIVNM]

I'm so fucking pissed at the car right now, and yet happy at the same time. 12.0x's ALL FUCKING NIGHT, but the car WOULD NOT break 11's. :mad:

I'll post up video of mine and Eric's best runs, as well as a few runs with some A-Speeders tomorrow. I'm too tired tonight, and I have to work in the morning.

Best Run:
.011 rt

7.742 1/8th
90.84 mph
10.08 1000'
12.062 1/4
113.57 mph

10* more drop in temp, and 11's on street tires are mine!

[ghostdriver]

slow night tonight, everything was running bad. mine only got a 13.6 best time (rick was driving). with me driving the best run was a 13.7? WTF?!? i know this little car is better than that...

[zmasterB]

BRENT DROPED 13s in the RHD SHIT BOX? HOLY SHIT

13.77 at 101 :D

Best trap was 102.8.


Dynoed it right before I took it out there........it blew down 210whp & 260wtq :O with 36 & 24 jets in it (we think thats about an 80 shot). Stock exhaust FTL at this point, gonna saw that bitch off to-morrow.

[ELE-BLUE95]

It was a good night to be out racing. Everyone got some good times. I did OK:D

.136 R/T
1.959 60'
5.312 330
8.085 1/8
89.10 MPH
12.493 1/4
111.89 MPH

Couldn't get a good launch on the DRs.

[zmasterB]

I'm so fucking pissed at the car right now, and yet happy at the same time. 12.0x's ALL FUCKING NIGHT, but the car WOULD NOT break 11's. :mad:

Holy hotlapping there at the end dude :dance: What did it run, like 5 12.0X's in a row????? I know EXACTLY what that shit feels like :mad:

Money winnin' car at the bracket race, thats for damn sure.......supa consistant.

Breakdown of the runs.

7:12 12.336 @ 113.02
7:16 12.251 @ 112.81
8:17 12.190 @ 112.90
8:27 12.175 @ 113.05
8:42 12.085 @ 112.98

10:01 12.153 @ 113.55
10:09 12.306 @ 113.52
10:22 12.078 @ 113.53
10:31 12.062 @ 113.57
10:41 12.096 @ 113.50

Average 12.164 @ 113.27

FYI, Best run when corrected shows as a 11.94 @ 114.75. I want some negative DA. :(

Oh, and there was one run in there that everyone who saw it thinks it was a fucking 11.9x for me, and a 12.3x for Eric, but we didn't get a time or timeslip. They had some fuck-up with the tower, and nothing came up. I got video of it, and I'll post it for you guys to see what you think. But I FUCKING KNOW that was my 11-second street tire pass.

I need to go bracket racing, and intend to once I get a rear under this thing, so that I can start making the car pay more towards herself. :D

[Byrd]

Lets just say it could have been better :(

It was an expensive first trip to MMP

But really, thank you to everyone who helped out. I'd still be there if it wasn't for yall.

[Grider]

Damn Byrd sorry to hear that tone!? What did ya break?

[VR4Rob]

Sorry we couldn't help you out more Alex, just try to shake it off. Good luck in your next steps.

[Crankee]

Come on guys post up those killer times everyone had LOL. Its to bad Alex, but just remember you have friends that can help.

[Byrd]

Damn Byrd sorry to hear that tone!? What did ya break?


To be determined. Sounds like the pistons are hitting the plugs or the head is also in question......

It starts and the oil pressures fine, it's just clacking/knocking something fierce. I needed a new HG and I have the SMIM, catch-can, and some other goodies to install so all is not lost. I'm just not looking forward to getting the bill and asking people for rides for the next I have no idea.


If I burn the next motor down it's going up for sale.

[IronMonkey]

Byrd....really sorry about your car man. I know how it feels.

But overall, kickass time. Thanks again for the ride up there Will!

[Pegasus_Red]

I has videos :D

didnt get Byrds only run though :(

Ill upload them later

:(

Sorry man. It truly hurt inside to hear the noises that motor was making. If you need a ride sometime then hit me up, I'll be glad to help.

For those of you that didn't have the unfortunate opportunity to hear this ear-bleeding blasphemy first hand, I have a video/sound clip..

CLICK (http://liquidsolace.com/misc/ByrdEngineOuch.mpg)

[Grider]

Holy crap. Man that sucks Alex.

[Jnic335i]

alex im so sorry man. I didn't know it was that bad until Eric let me hear his phone. :(

As for my track times nothing to be proud about except for my .001 reaction time and running a 14.4.

[Godspeed1976]

It was a good night to be out racing. Everyone got some good times. I did OK:D

.136 R/T
1.959 60'

111.89 MPH

Couldn't get a good launch on the DRs.

Yeah after there seeing all these awesome times Im gonna need to get those back :) I am so glad you hit 12.49!!, and Allen all I can say is Daaaaayum good work. Get that rear fixed and we can throw my DRs on for some better 11s?

Congrats my F-Body Brothers!!! Im so happy I feel like I just ran a new best!

[TheWill]

Awesome time hanging out with you guys, alex so sorry to see the car like that man if you need any help just hit me up. I ran a really inconsistent night, i ran a 17.2 with brent in the car and then a 16.2 with him out and then a 17.0. I really wanted to break the 15's in a fairly stock car. Jimmy no prob on the ride up, you earned your seat with that comment to the dsm guy...bwhahahaha omg that was so funny.

[04silverL]

Damn Alex that sux man. You need any help getting shit off and inspecting it let me know. Just yell at apt 733 if you need a ride to class, I usually see you going the same time I go, so just let me know.
Simon

[Byrd]

I really do appreciate it guys :headbang:

That movie is the sound of death. My runs were poop anyway so there wasn't anything to get on tape.

Simon - I literally dropped the car off infront of my mechanics house in mont. without him being there and wrote a letter. His wife came out later, blasted drunk, and I tried to give her the gist of things but .... she wouldn't have understood sober so it was pointless.


Anyone know of any job openings? :confused: :O

From doing a little searching, I spun a bearing.... So i hope my crank isn't trashed, and if it isn't it won't be all that bad.

[VDUBNDizzy]

10* more drop in temp, and 11's on street tires are mine!

Congrats on everything, but I don't get this mentality. I'm not trying to start shit or anything, but why does this matter? So you can say "If it's 60* or cooler, I can run 11's on street tires." Who gives a rip? Put whatever tires on it you can afford that will let you go the fastest. And yes, I know, the rear end, oh the humanity.


Byrd, sorry for the carnage. Build it stronger and better.

[VR4Rob]

Congrats on everything, but I don't get this mentality. I'm not trying to start shit or anything, but why does this matter? So you can say "If it's 60* or cooler, I can run 11's on street tires."

Because drag racing is all about setting and beating personal goals? :confused:

[ANTIVNM]

Congrats on everything, but I don't get this mentality. I'm not trying to start shit or anything, but why does this matter?

Because, how many guys (besides motorcycle riders) can say that they ran 11's on street tires with less than 350 WHP? Not very many.

It's a personal thing, and I've been dancing with 11's on street tires for almost a year now, and just can't seem to get it done. Once I get the rear, I'll strap sticky tires on her, but for now, I've got to go for the goals that I can realistically achieve.

[VDUBNDizzy]

Because drag racing is all about going as fast as possible, not setting some overconstrained category for yourself to fit in to make you feel better about your times.

Correct Rob. :D
