All i have to say is i picked up 3mph between the 1/8 and the 1/4 and didn't launch it. Only got to do one pass.

edit: car is ready to go back just unsure when because of how busy school is getting.

Looks like I probably won't make it Sunday. Making a turn the car started idling funny then stalled as I quickly yanked it into a church parking lot. My meth solenoid failed and the pump was running at low speed. I might get away with a n oil change a few hours work and a tow. I ignorantly tried to restart it not knowing the pump was on and it made a full turn before stopping. I popped the hood and heard the pump screaming away. I'm home and it looks like it died at TDC with #4 filled to the top with meth and water. I really hope I didn't bend a rod, but it's doubtful. F#ck.

I might be back on for a Sunday cruise. Looks like there's no damage except to my ego and the solenoid that activates the meth. Compression is good, and the intake is dry. Ir runs fine, but the meth has to be turned off until I replace the check valve and solenoid. That was way too close.

Josh. You had me worried there. The cruise is all planned. I will update you via text when everything is set but it has potential of being a really good time. The cruise won't to be too demanding on your car. Well at least with the turbo you're running.

Look for my text.
