Never a dull moment.
One of my best friends POP'ed his motor the other day racing a bike, while on the juice. cammed 2001 C5, it shattered the #7 piston. A Chunk of the ring land broke off. We pulled it apart yesterday. He's going bigger and badder.. REALLY soon!!. Forged 347, heads, and a TRex.. hehe.. and even more juice..hehe
Your horror stories on the SPEC's made us rip ours out for RAM HD's... and been more than happy now. Didn't want to lose our feet... This wont keep us away from the juice though.. lol
Take care..
Steve
Your boy is gonna love the T-rex...it's pretty nasty.
I also want to do a bottom end...Thanks man...best wishes to you and your friend bro....

But glad your ok and everthing is cool.
lol. Yeah, I looked at him that night in the crowd...and said "no more ******!" "your not allowed back in the car"...
ofcourse...I was jokeing.
I've been breaking **** for years...with and without him, ya know. lol. It was kinda weird when it popped though...
What can you do you know?...**** happens, I guess.
I know I did it right after my streetbike accident. Probably within the first week or two of him owning it. He was cool about it.

I think he was referring to when you said that your 27 years old now and you drove a 02 z06 at the age of 20 which means that 2002 z06 would have been out in 1999

27 (years old) - 20 (your age when driving a 02 z06) = 7 years
2006 (current year) - 7 years = 1999

11yrs old. Go-kart... blew it up.
13yrs old. KX 80. First day, blew it up.(wot blasts in 6th gear didn't help).
16yrs old. 88 GT mustang. 3 world class T-5's.
19yrs old. 97 Cobra mustang. 3 T-45's, 2 rearends, and 6 long blocks.
20yrs old. 98 Camaro. Friends car. Spun bearing. Not really my fault.
20yrs old. 02 Z06. Cousins car, brand new. T-56.
23yrs old. 00 R1. My fault completely. 2 accidents. 1 resulting in a heli ride
26yrs old. 00 Corvette. Piece of **** clutch/pressure plate blew apart. Thank you SPEC.
....which would bring me to last night.
I was in second....bout to race a skline powered 240... and stabbed it...on spray. For a split second it felt strong....then BOOM. Major nitrous backfire. It was a pretty crazy site to see.
The wilson manifold is split in on the top and bottom. Looks all kinds of F'd up. But whatever. I,...we pulled over. Irionicly, my friend , who also had his spec clutch explode was the person in the car with me.
Blew the airbridge apart...split in two. Kinda funny looking. And again, the fast has two splits.
Not to worry,..cause I was able to nurse it home, with no MAF,...and in reduced engine power....cruisng at 2000rpm. SO, I was actually able to hit 60 on the way home.
...and 80mph this morning, because I came to work here, on a sunday, to put the BACKUP FAST 90 on it. The broken piece is off....just takeing a short break to type this bullshit.
Anyways...I should be back up in an hour or soo... I am kinda tired. I must really love this **** or something. jeez.
Peace out ya'll.
Oh, and thanks to the 15 or so friends that came to meet me n the side of the road. That was cool of you.

yeah.. I know.
My dates where more then off.
Not that i'm being questioned at all..cause it was my obvious mitsake but....I do have all of the paper work and vin numbers....as well as accident reports from all this stuff. I even have still, all of my cobra's paperwork/tow records....etc etc etc
I'm guessing, my accident was between four and 5 years ago. I think it was 4. I'm bad with dates, and names.
Moral of the story...don't do drugs.
C5 Torque tube, T-5 trans, T-56 trans, 4L60E in an f-body, multiple clutches. Gears.... etc..
And about 4 oil pressure senders in my damn vette. They seem to keep taking a dump. I hate those *******. Easy to swap, but a real pain in my ***. Hopefully the one I put in last week will last awhile...

Damn man..4 bad sensors?
Weird. My sensor is maxed out right now as well. Wtf.
This is my first bad sensor but...I have broken probably three of those little bastards in the past.
