MADMAN

10-06-2002, 02:53 PM

The car ran killer on motor. We unfortunately exploded a drive shaft on the last pass. The car is leaving killer. Riding the wheelie bar past the 60ft.

Madman we've had our trips across the states too, and we just haven't been able to get the cars at the same race track!
I was talking with Wade and he loves this type of competition, and is thinking about taking the trip down <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />
But we would like to know what classes/rules they will have and where our car would fit...
Joe, there is a $1500 win at the Thunder Race?

MADMAN

10-06-2002, 06:14 PM

You could run PRO OUTLAW with me and a bunch of other heavy hitters. Yes its $1500.00 to win.

Stock style suspension, true ten inch tire, the rules were made for us. Come on down.

Trevor, yes this was the car. We ran the car to 8400rpm last nite at the track and itwas pulling its ass off. I new this new combo wanted rpm but this is crazy.

Ken

That MADMAN car is a killer ride. That car will be on top.

MADMAN, I got some pretty pictures of your car riding the wheelie bar Saturday night!! Didn't realize it till I got back from Whacko and downloaded the camera....I f*cked up and left them on one of my hardrives I can't get to from the net but I will post up pics of You, Coach, the other Red LS1, and My formula from Sat night.

I've got a vid of Coach Launching also I'll post...this Launch will testify to the strength of your Torque Arm and reinforcements to Coach's car...he absolutely RIPS out of the hole.

CONGRATS ON GETTING TO THE TRACK!! <img border="0" alt="[Fluffy]" title="" src="graemlins/fluffy.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[Fluffy]" title="" src="graemlins/fluffy.gif" />

Madman,

Thanks, your combo sounds awesome <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Chris<hr /></blockquote>6.20 on motor, not exact on the weight, and yes I believe it's set-up for True street...full interior working Electric windows still, stock style and located suspension, etc.

MADMAN

10-07-2002, 11:35 AM

400ci motor, glide, 4.10 gear, 29.5X10.5 true 10 tire. 3210 race weight. ALL THE BALLAST for Thunder was in the car.

Chris how far you want to drive?????

CHRISPY

10-07-2002, 11:37 AM

Sounds like a very nice setup <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> Aluminum or iron block?
Cheers,

MADMAN, is your engine an LS1 or LT1? Also, is it fuel injected or carbed?

Bitchin! 6.20 on motor? what did it run on the hose? are you just using that plate kit only?

10-07-2002, 01:24 PM

Madman,Thats about 9.60 on motor.With juice I'd imagine 8.60's should be no problem if u hook it?

JS

MADMAN

10-07-2002, 01:39 PM

I wont have a problem with it hooking. It is injected and its a steel block.

SLED28

10-07-2002, 02:23 PM

Hey Madman, we're looking forward to the race, but its not exactly apples to apples. Looks like you have a aftermarket SBC with some big heads on that thing! What heads are those anyways?
We all know how much power an engine like yours can make... We've built a few of those before <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

The motor has Brodix heads. Sled the suspension will be the factor in this race.

GASP!!!! A 15 deg. headed gods gift to racing ls1 car can't be worried about a little ole school 18 deg. brodox headed car can it?? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />

heheheh...just messing with you guys about the whole ls1s are made by god thing.

Looking forward to this race and seeing both cars at the shootout.

MADMAN

10-07-2002, 05:10 PM

I have 15 degree heads and a steel block. So between the aluminum block and heads we should be apples to apples.
