Its time for 14s...Who's going for the last day?

there's no such hting as a last day for atco :lol:

well.......last Friday of regular racing, DAMNIT you know what I mean

good chance w00t

I'll be there racing the vette for the rental in the morning, but I'll be heading home to sleep before it opens for regular racing.

I'm going as long as the weather holds.....

Chris

sweeeeeeeet...I gotta put her up on jacks in a few hours...should take me about 20 mins to turn it into a 14sec car

I might be watching.

kinda creepy considering your avatar


Some body needs to bring a camera...

That's funny but I see what your saying.
If I go I'll bring my camera but I'll have lil man with me
he's 5 and he loves the cars.

nice

i'll think about it. what time is everyone going to be there?

I'm rolling in around 5

It was cold as heck out there tonight. There was alot of ricers out. Did anybody see that gray EVO that kept popping all the way down the track.
That freaking car ran a 10.24 at 140 something. I took some pics and vids i'll
try and post them. Im having problems with the size.

yea, cold is what kept me away from going. That and I can't run my car really.

Did Bubba get his 14's?

no......Didn't even make it out...ran into HUGE issues with my project today I went to put in my 3.42s that blacdout96 gave me BUT they were 3.08 ring gear and 3.42 pinion...so I'm putting my spare 2.73 back together and trying to get another posi set

Where was everyone?
 

I think there 5 maybe 6 fbodies? I got five runs and got there at 7:30, almost hot lapping....

bad bad day my friend....looks like the gunning for times with have to wait till February.

His best last night was a 9.70 or soemthin like that. we were talking to him for awhile, freakin things a beast and he was running low on n2o bottle preassure on that run too !

you had the pewter/silver bird right? i saw it there then. but yeah like 5 or 6 fbodies were there, lots ricerzzzzzzzz and fart canzzzzz

you were going to R&R ring and pinion gears in 20 minutes?

There was also a sick bird out to. A black one I think the # was 6199.
But that evo was super sick foo sure!

"Learning as you go" I hope you learned something here- you couldve hit 14s just because the DA was better. instead, you thought you were going to change the ring and pinion out in 20 mins without the proper tools and without an installation kit... :nono:

I was going to swap in a 3.23 rear I got for $100 but when I took the housing off the change the fluid and inspect the gears. I noticed it was a 2.73. I could have swapped the rear in 20min cause I was planing on it being a 3.23. So then I go to swap the gears out and I was giving a ring and pinion that don't match nor where they posi. So now i had to go get my 4th gen posi rear and by the time I got that loaded up it was 6:30. so there was no way I was gonna get that done in the dark and make it there...I'll just wait till i get my DRs and go next season.

You were at least prepared with shims, and a indicator and base to set for proper pinion depth and preload I hope. Then ready to set the proper backlash. :wink:

Are you spinning at the line at all. If not, then I wouldn't spend the money on tires just yet until you need them.
