[QUOTE=digitalsolo;12332239]Meh, some of us build cars to drive, not just race. I spend ~500-1000 miles a year driving and 1-2 total racing. Maybe some of you are different. Maybe some of you just can't drive a stick. Who knows.



Yes your right most of us build our cars to drive and race. Weren't you plagued
with motor and tranny issues?? Don't you have a manual tranny also??

Sound like the pot calling the kettle black! LOL Auto or manual ,if you make any car faster it will break

Went down to muncie tonight. Took the daily driver down again. Wanted to get a 13 sec pass lol. Made 6 passes in the 13's tonight with the regal, best was a 13.8 @ 101.2 2.0 60ft. Not bad for a stock catback/ airbox car .
Evan's bone stock G8 Gt went 13.4 @ 107.9 2.0 60ft, one of the highest traps I have seen on a stock g8!!
Going to try and make it down in the Camaro before winter hits. I want to see what it will run before it gets a stall with spray!

Yup, sure was.

Let's review:

Killed:

Stock 4L60e
Built 4L60e (billet servo, shift kit, kevlar bands/clutches and kolene steels)
Almost stock 4L60e ('vette servo, shift kit)

My T56 had bad shift keys when I bought it (I knew that when I got it), and apparently also had a tweaked input shaft. I replaced both of those and (aside from missing a snap ring on assembly, which I fixed without pulling the tranny) haven't had any troubles. I thought it was messed up a couple weeks ago, though that turned out to be a problem with the shifter surround interfering.

But yes, lots of tranny issues. Automatic tranny issues.

I call BS, You can't say its stock ,cat back/Airbox car . Its not stock , It has a 3"DP ,ported manifold, 3.4 Pulley and an evan tune. Thats not stock!
Now if you had a stock DP ,stock airbox .3.8 pulley stock mani and stock back half and still running factory setting in the PCM , THEN YOU WOULD BE STOCK.

I did not call my car stock. It still has the factory catback exhaust and gutted stock airbox, wich is exactly what stock catback/ airbox means!! No need to get all butthurt. I believe we raced on lima a couple summers ago if you recall. I have the white regal w/ chrome gsx wheels. Call bs all you want, I have no reason to lie lol.

Ha Ha butthurt ,thats a good one .I was just joking around . Now who's butt is hurtng. I wasn't calling BS to what your car runs. We raced a few summers ago and you won by a good amount. I was just joking on your sig and you saying it was stock thats all. Your sig says 3" offroad DP, 3.4 pulley ,ported mani and a tune,Right Thats not stock .Your exact words were" stock catback/airbox car " Right? Non the less your car does run ***** out for what little has been done.

I was not saying my car is stock at all! I was just implying it runs good for retaining the stock exhaust -minus the dp. You misinterpreted what I was trying to say. None the less, congrats on your new pb, you have a nice gs as well.

Congrats kinglt-1..
Did you race my friends red mr2 this past spring with your white regal?
I think it was the same night Kenny raced my cousin James(gunmetal evo).


Also,
Anyone going to Muncie next Wednesday?
It'll be the 14th.

Are you the one with the turbo Rx7? I was talking to Franke Fresh yesterday (yellow T/A) and he said he was trapping the same as your car (118 mph). What does your car run in the 1/4? He thinks a set of tires and some suspension parts he will run with you, and I was thinking your car was in the 130+mph range in the 1/4? Just curious....

did you tell frankie fresh he was really, really wrong?

SDB

iTrader: (7)

I tried to! But you know how he is!

Slowr w/o Blowr

Ha ha ha ha. Don't think so Captain! Unless Frank is playing some major head games, i don't think his motor is any stronger than last year.

The Beast

iTrader: (16)

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, Frank needs a WHOLE lot more than tires and suspension to even be close to Tony on pump gas. Frank just needs to stick with his imaginary turbo kit that he has one day then doesn't the next, then installs this imaginary turbo kit one morning only to uninstall it that night

NobodyIsSlowerThanMe

Yeah I drive the Rx7.
I don't think Frankie's car was NOT running right that night we raced.

My car isn't anywhere near your level, but it's not trapping 118mph.
I thought he was lying so I lied...
I'll post what I run after me and Chris come back from US41.
I'm hoping Starfire has some ricers for me to race when we get there.

If a nice night decides to pop up one of these weekends, we need to go out and see what a turbo 2.2l will do against a 1.3l

NobodyIsSlowerThanMe

lol...
Unfortunately mine really is a 1.3liter
But, I'll take you up on that offer Jarrod.

What are you going to do about the axle issue?
Are you going solid this year?

Going to a ford 9" rear end setup. I already have the rearend, but it needs cut down to fit in my truck. Plus I gotta get axles, brake setup, a carrier, get it all setup, and get the perches welded on. Its all happening this winter. Should be able to launch pretty hard on it which will most likely find the next weakest link. Considering getting a new drive shaft to eliminate that from the weakest link list.

Frankes car does run 118 on motor, per him...which seems about right. He says he has to fix tuning issues, tranny rpm shift point, etc. tires, etc. Even on a 150 shot he will probably trap 128-130 under ideal circumstances (with an auto that is not bad). I imagine he will need all that to be close to you!
