Congrats Terry,

The traction is always better on Sundays at Carlsbad. I'm sure you still have more to come.

Cognrats!!
GREAT JOB!
Long time coming <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />
Cheers,
Chris

 

see, was it so hard to go to a track with an addition 1/8 added on <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

nice DA <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />

 

Woo hoo, congrats Terry. Let me say that you are an inspiration to all us West Coaster's out here! It really is an accomplishment to run that kind of 60' at Carls-crap. Now haul that bad boy to HRP and race Nineball for a pair of shitkickers! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

My best ET was at +1200' DA and I was over 300 lbs heavier. I can remove a LOT of weight in no time <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Congrats again "Whopper"

Don't worry Tony I can add a lot of power in no time. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

 

Congrats Terry, I was in the tower for your 1st pass (The 10.99)... I told the guys in the tower, watch this LS-1, he's begging for a 10.99999.... they said "That Car ?".... you look awfully stock. lol

As you ran through the timers, the times show-up on the computer, I saw your 6.9x in the 1/8th... and I told them "he's got it".... you did. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

As a manner of observation.... you were pretty squirrely going into 2nd, if you can keep 1st and 2nd gear a bit straighter, you're gonna find yourself some more et... easily several hundreths... you drove about 1340 feet to go 1320...it makes a big difference.

I didn't set any personal et records.... but did win the brackets <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> ..... racing and getting paid to do it is a lot of fun.

cheers,
Todd

 

Congrats man!

 

Congrats Terry, that really is an accomplishment at Carlsbad! Way to go...you and Scott do an awseome job representing for us West Coasters!

60’: 1.526
1/8: 6.964
MPH: 97.36
1/4 : 10.980
MPH: 122.26

Most of you are familiar with the car so I’ll spare everyone the full build sheet. Here are a few details:

Race weight: 3300# (It’s not the heaviest h/c car in the 10s, but it certainly isn’t the lightest either!)

DA: I don’t have a calculator link handy so here are the details: Baro: 29.89 (at sea level), elevation: 300’, humidity: 72%, temp: 66 degrees.

I’m willing to bet I have the only 10 second h/c cam with functional power steering. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> I drove the car to and from the track, 2 hours each way.

I’m still waiting on a 388 motor from MMS, but it’s fun to think about taking off 100# and adding 25rwhp with the stock short block. Can you say pepper killer? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> ... and don't worry Scott I'll be passing that 10.89 up soon. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Terry, nice numbers/congratulations!

 

Congrats on getting into the club! <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

I imagine that will end, at least for a few days <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> , some of the latest bickering <img border="0" alt="[fight]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_punch.gif" /> in the engine section. <img border="0" alt="[jester]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_jest.gif" />

 

congrats <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

 

Congrats on the new times Terry.

I guess it was worth the trip!

Congrats!

 

Congrats Terry, looks like those LS6 heads are paying off...

Ooops...

Just kidding.

Be nice to all of our sponsors, and I'll keep you on the NA list... (sound of ruler hitting somebody's hiney).
