That didn't work out or my differential. Controller was setup wrong and my clutches are out on the Auburn. Big Red is gonna string ya along a little longer before the inevitable. Did you ever open that gap up on me by more than a fender? I heard you ran the car this year.

Hi Frank

Don't even bother asking him what he weighs. He won't tell a soul and is severely gutted compared to my car. He actually gets mad when people ask because that's his biggest secret. Take a guess. Lol My car was 3800# with me in it. He doesn't even have pillar trim in his car and it is a...

Bar going way up this year. Your 60' and annorexia is the only thing that saved you. Get ready son.

First week of October I headed back to the track for 2017 to try to take back the trophy from Red Dragon after he barely nipped my time in 2016 after catching wind of my 11.31 pass. I'm sure you all remember the long novel he wrote and all the talk about the "thousands upon thousands" of dollars...

See. You don't listen. Nobody cares about your SLOW 119mph pass. You apparently have memory loss as well. I trapped 119 on wide open converter. I got 3-4 mph on the plate with lockup alone hence that being one of my "tweaks" this year. My car still weighs 3800# and bigger injectors are for more...

You are a bragger though. Oh my 439 dollar car this and that. "Someone has been spending thousands".... yeah, so what. I don't have a car note and spending money makes my wiener hard. Like I said, I pay for my jobs, you do them yourself so I'm not even mad. This is a race for ET, not who spent...

Why are you bumping the post, like I haven't read it all? LOL. Yeah I'm subsribed, and yes my email popped at me letting me know you had more to say. So while we're at it, I guess I'll talk. I was researching some material and it appears MBT is going to be somewhere around 27 degrees of...

2017 will be a fun year. Congrats on the run. Expect the competition to continue. All those things you speak of are needed with my setup. Your intake also has 16 primaries versus my 8. And let's not forget nitrous is super duper cold just like my E85, we're just taking different approaches. My...

https://youtu.be/XDzirVlvMZk I got it! Overall quickest bone stock engine Mark VIII. Now I'll be bumping the timing and doing a few more things and going for 10s next year. That will still not include removing the valve covers that the factory put on the car. 11.316@119.11

17 degrees of timing in hot air....both of those things are going to change along with a couple more tricks. It's getting a hot lava tune on the switch chip with more timing. I want 10s and have every belief it will hit that if it doesn't blow up. The E85 is working very well. I fear that...

Heaton.... That is all.

Thanks Don! Yessir. The DA was terrible. In my experience with Frosty, 20 degrees or so is 2-3 tenths, especially when the air dries out. E85 is godly. I'll never run this car without it again. My car was up in the air for 3 months as my good friend pecked away at it when he could outside...

I will be travelling to California at the end of September with the car on a trailer to meet up with the west coast folks for an event. I will only be briefly touching the tip of Texas. I have a feeling you are NOT talking about a MARK VIII either. Lol

Yes. I'm going to delete the window trim entirely. 97markja did that on his car and it looks fantastic.

I was 1.61s and 1.62s 60' on the footbrake with a centrifugal with stall behind it. I'm hooked on centris. On E85 my meth tank has slowed to a crawl .....with no intercooler at all up front and the car has zero knock. There is a LOT of top mount cars with my power or more that can't touch my...

Here is how the car looks now. Here is a pull in the car the very morning we street tuned it with Livewire. It took about 2 hours worth of time and I was out the door with a car that was almost 8 tenths faster than last year when I ran a best of 12.29 Note, the speedo reads slow due to...

I haven't been on here in quite some time. I bought a beautiful Toreador Red Gen2 LSC from Thomas A back in October 2012. At the time it was a log manifold stock converter Vortech S-trim car. With the help of a small diet, E85, longtubes, 4200 stall, fuel cell, and poly bushings throughout on...

Fixed that for you. :D Mine are PHENOMENAL on Big Red. That car plants hard. The only thing killing me right now is worn out diff bushings and I need some bracing. Still mustered low 1.7s short times on a warm day full weight at almost 4100# on factory airride. With the 275s that I run on the...
