let me know when you're going to pick her up. I wouldn't mind making the trip out and taking the camcorder along

 

Did you guys still plan on having an evo meet tomorrow?

 

I'm sitting around 2600lbs looking to get a little lighter still. Probably going to be like 700hp. And all I need to do is get some sway bars and put my other wheels and tires on. Then I will be ready for sub 1's at beaver run haha. I'm joking but I would love to break 1.05s.

Meet tomorrow? Eh I got work to do on my car! Coolant temp gauge is freaking out and it scares me!

 

The best I've run out there with the red car was 1:05's on NT01's with the new suspension.

The race car won't have the HP (or driver talent ) to get into the 1:00's, but I would think if you or Jeremy took a shot at it, you could get pretty close....

It was funny; last time I was there I asked Chris where I could pick up a couple seconds, he asked me what I was running and when I told him he said "I'm going to have to think about that".

For a short track, there's not a ton of room to shave 2-3 sesonds off w/o the HP to help....

 

It really could be noise.....I get knock all the time around 70-80 load at 2500-3000 rpms. Once I go into boost/and or increase rpms it goes away. Its just a resonance or something in the motor - I don't worry about part throttle knock unless its causing drive ability issues.....i see like 3-8 counts typically.

I have added timing, removed timing and it never goes away - even on other alternative fuels that can be found in my gas tank.

I pretty much ignore any knock under part throttle driving (unless your pegging the knock sensor and the car runs like poo) - i just like to see when its happening and make sure its not out of the norm for my own car, which really it never is.

Def. pay more attention to knock going into boost at wot - that's the stuff that kills a good run - the 160/180+ load area.

 

nice to see a projected 700hp car running in the 10's.........

 

What is considered a respectable time on the North Loop with a street car on street tires and I mean something like Z1 Star Specs, RE-11's or AD-08's?

 

I'm not sure I get what you are
saying.. The car is not at 700hp yet.. There are still a few things I need to get and that I need to change. Also I'm a very inexperienced drag racer, Wednesday was my first time ever doing it. If you are attempting to talk some kind of **** I don't understand why? Stooping low like the other idiots that come on here is just a waste of your time because I don't give a damn what you or anyone else thinks.

 

I have my evo up there just to seat the new brakes in and I didn't do any timing but from seat of the pants I'd guess around a 1:13-1:15.
On really crappy 400A tires and I probally have the stockest evo in the area.
So probally around 1:10-1:13 would be good with non pepboys tires

 

easy...I was giving you props dude compared to other dyno queens that made nice numbers and ran like poo at the track - you on the other hand went to the track and ran good times so far and will get better.....and yet to have a dyno sheet.

I must have misread your post - didn't you say it should be around 700hp?

not to be rude but obviously you do care or you wouldn't have just flipped on me out of assumption.......

 

hahahahaha ohh boy

you still obviously think i am bothered by your rants. So we have members who dont like me. should i care? do you ever see me apologize? Im the type of guy who looks out for myself, my gf and my family. I dont care about you, or anyone else on this forum. I get on here to read information, look for news, and general stuff that i may consider doing to my car at some point and time.


As for me owing money and being asked publicly about it? Yes, i bought an intake manifold off of ryan a while ago. After he left where we worked i saw him 1 time, and it was at the race track 2 weeks ago. last thing i thought about was $50 when i was racing and he doesnt have my number sooo. whooooaaaa whooaaaa anything else?

If you wanna be a smart *** about me selling stuff, why not click on the little number on the side of my name, contact some people and ask them what they think of the products i have sold them.

wow you bought stuff from dan and denny. i imagine my bill was higher with them than yours, and you dont see them asking me for money. go put a dry pad on ya little girl

 

i dont care i flipped out because im pissed that people are acting like idiots in here. sorry for jumping on you. you can never know what people mean when you see the ......... usually its sarcasm.

ya it should be around 700hp it isnt yet but should be. thats probably about the max for a 37r i would guess, maybe mid 700's but i havent seen anything much higher on a 37.

 

ya i really wasnt like saying i need the money right now i was more just giving you ****. you know i dont care eric, its 50 bucks whenever i get it i get it.

 

Maxi pad joke? Really? I was thinking you could do better then that. What happened to the AARP references, how much everyone elses car's suck or bushings!?

You must be getting mellow in your old age.

 

lol...Good to know, I'm looking forward to a timed event on the North Loop.
