Thanks Paul! Last night was so brutal for Matt, Joe, and myself. We all broke our cars early, and HRP wasn't busy at all! Excellent weather and we could have gotten in 20+ passes had we not broken. Typical

I gotta get this one into the 9s, and then I'll work on the drag car project

the NX nitrous kit goes in next, along with better axles

Here are the details from last night: https://ls1tech.com/forums/showthread.php?p=2098207

Yes the fast TB sucks. We can`t get it to idle and the TPS won`t let the tranny downshift at WOT. This thing is sweet looking, just doesn`t work right. David ordered me a TPIS TB and they stiffed us on the order time. Should have been here Thursday. Never showed up.Come to find out david said they never shipped. Customer service was out the window for them. Not even a phone call to tell us. It`s killing me not to drive her!!But when the time comes I will meet you guys up there and race with you. Can`t wait!!! Need to see what she can do!

I know G-Force puts on LS2 TB's now instead of the trash Fast 90's.. They look awesome and work flawlessly.

If you have any questions about it PM "Mike TexaSS" and he will hook it up!

Ouch!!!! Was that track hooking or what? It sounds like the project car is putting out the power. At least you found the weak link. I sure wanted to be there. I could have cryed in my beer for ya! LOL.

See ya!!!
