Default Close race tonight

Well I finally met up with a car that gave me a hell of a run tonight.

My car is a home built budget turbo set up that my wife and I built last year. It is a home built 346, 224 cam, tc76 turbo running 11#'s of boost on 13 degrees timing with 91 octane. Super safe tune.

I ran into this guy tonight. I agreed to a 45 mph roll because my car is set up to HOOK & wouldn't be fair. 1st race I put several car lengths on him.
2nd race I gave him a split second to boost then hit it & uh oh I wasn't going by him.

My shift light took a dump on me and I hit my rev limiter each shift (t400) It was neck & neck. Killer race, this is the first time someone has stayed with my like that, very fun.

We came home & I told my wife that this car was something pretty special. It took me 5 minutes to find it, link below. Just wanted to share.

He said he was running 18#'s of boost with 100 octane.

See post #18, I am sure this is the correct car. I read several posts and found the guys user name. He said he is from NW montana.
