I wanted to break into the 12's all motor so bad! The last time I raced the Saab, i ran a personal best of 13.2 @ 103 without headers and under-drive pulley (new mods). My only 2 passes were:

Launch @ 3,500 RPM
60' - 1.853
1/8 - 8.289 @ 82.93
1/4 - 13.057 @ 101.77

Launch @ 1,500 RPM
60' - 1.865
1/8 - 8.281 @ 83.38
1/4 - 13.033 @ 102.01

I guess it's still not bad for a "Soccer Mom Van".

He was having tranny problems again shifting ...it would go 1st to 3rd skip 2nd. It would have been a good run for us too. I was just trying to get my time set and was just one tenth off from getting it.

But will be ready for the *** whooping when i get my car back to my set up not the all motor setup.

New best 1/8 mile all motor pass 7.1 & 95 mph

Next on my list to do is

New TQ arm and cloth seats and put in my light weight carpet.

Sucks to see Juan "SUX2BU" car break like that on the first try

Why is your trap so low?

Oh well, I told Sean I wouldn't talk **** but ****, I can't help it when it's so easy. Lol. So Sean called me out, so on my way to Crandall he calls me. I tell him that I'm on my way and before I can get another word in he asks, "you're bringing your car" I say" yes, I'm going to drag that ***". He says "wait but i don't have my bottle". Fact of the matter is, we both ran the same times, with me having a little more mph, that's all. Lmao I couldnt believe Sean was scared of a little cam only camaro vs his h/c/i and not to mention the 500 or so lbs less than my car lol.

Had a good time out there and ran a personal best for my car. It's a terd but not too bad for a bone stock 190k mile motor and the only weight reduction is no back seats.

Sean still whooped my *** though when we lined up.

lol CAM only lol

We all saw the turbos you can't hide that... Plus you did the same times letting out after the 60ft

Joel saw the perfect time to race me knowing I wouldn't have my spray lol
I guess thats's what I get for doing all motor passes and telling him

hahaha
--------------

All jokes aside it would have been a good run with the problems you had yesterday. You did have a little more MPH but not that much. I can't believe your 60ft dropped that bad when you showed me the time slip I knew something big had gone wrong. You getting that fixed??

I'm going back out next week or so to retry my 7.0 I have a couple things to change out.

After the event I will have my bottle ready to give you what I got lol

Sean you are so close to 7.0's it shouldn't be that hard to hit. I have a few idea's and I'm sure you do too. By the way, was it on the nitrous tune? If so that alone could bring you a lot closer.


And on the spray...dude spray it to all hell and back, I have the parts in my garage to fix the rear end if it pops. I have an axle, diff and gears.

The 1.6x 60ft im not worried about it, that was launching of idle. My 1.5x 60ft come when I stall my around 2600 rpms. I'm not sure what it will do on the tbrake yet. As far as the problem I was having, it should be an easy fix. Shift linkage just needs to be adjusted.
