How did old man Joe run?

I haven't read how his 7800rpm monster ran at the shootout. 13.5@105? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Re: How did old man Joe run?

I need a new number to shoot for, what is it? With the hardware he has on that car I'd expect 10.3x or so?

Re: How did old man Joe run?

seems like Home Fries is trying to start something, funny coming from a guy who has to lie about the motor in his car.

Re: How did old man Joe run?

No lies here, I used to have a stock 346/heads/cam (in race trim, 3220#) that ran 6.84/99 1/8th (10.87@127 1/4), and now I have a 396 (in full street trim with less stall) running 6.72@101 1/8th (no 1/4 times yet).

You're on the money about me trying to start **** though. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

PS. Did JS or any Cartek cars come to the shootout?!?

Re: How did old man Joe run?

Nice how about some details? I wanted to come to the shootout myself but I'm moving in to a new house and money/time is really tight. My new place is 1620 sq/ft vs. 1220 sq/ft in the current place, and has RV parking for the trailer! (both lots are ~8000sq/ft).

Next event for sure. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

<hr /></blockquote>It's pretty big for the two of us. Actually 1220 was plenty of space, but this house was too good a deal to pass up. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

So no times for Joe or JS?

<hr /></blockquote>What you probably don't know is that the motor was in Derek Real's car for almost a month. They sorted out all the motor problems with the motor in Derek's car, pulled the motor and crated it to ship back to TTR, and then I came along and bought it. It runs great for me, and its going to run even better next week when I get the new cam in. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

PS. I run 91 octane on the street and 93 octane at the track with this motor. It pings a little on the 91 but its not that bad, on 93 no pinging at all!

Actually, I think they overcharged you on purpose, so you might change your mind and move out of state.

Re: How did old man Joe run?

Before Tim I just figured you were a bitter guy, but thanks to the TR shootout I finally understand your motivation. You're a bitter short guy!

Listen my girlfriend has the same problem (she's 5'4), and bought these shoes that make her look a lot taller. Maybe you should try some? They might cheer you up a bit. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> On the plus side I bet you're pretty light, better ET's! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
