Track event #19

**864I'DCaprI** · 04-13-2008, 09:16 PM

Well, what a LOW turnout. Rained for about 10 mins and racing was back up and going shortly after. Good seeing Joe, Mitch, Donnie, John, Tiff (Whats her name again!!!), Tony who hid in his car and I thought he was the cops!!!. Thats all that was there out of the Ford Tech unless I missed someone..

That Pinto was freaking awsome, waxing the shit outta that Z like 10 times...He hot lapped that car id say at least 6 times in a row. And there was a dood in a slow ass car that one pass he was eating a candy bar as he drove by!!!

Anyone have any pics or anything? I heard Rob was there taking some vids, if your reading this Rob , please post the link to the vids...Thanks

Anyways had a great time seeing all of yall and wifey also had a great time!! Just wished more of the Ford family could have been there....

Mitch, you were SOOOO close to the numbers you wanted, any luck after I left??

John, did you get any better times out of that truck??? LOL

yeah i thought there would be more people too still fun .did mitch get his 9 sec pass

**864I'DCaprI** · 04-13-2008, 09:22 PM

Ohh and Stephan, I know your going to read this.....That dood we were next to almost the whole time driving home from the rained out track event was Dr Dirt (Tony)!!!!! AND that shiny thing I saw that I thought was a turbo, well it indeed is a turbo in that car just not sure if that was a piece to the turbo pipe or something!!!! Told ya!!

**shinysideup** · 04-13-2008, 09:57 PM

Fordspeed was in the house as well,looked good! Good seeing everyone,too many got punked by a few clouds

**DrDirt** · 04-13-2008, 10:04 PM

That shiny thing was part of my undercover secret police video.

You are all ID'd now. Buahahahahah!

Well, the turbo wasn't doing so hot today. The damn thing just shuts off a couple hundred feet out. It's like somebody just turns off the key. It goes from sucking 1300 kg/hr of fuel and an 11.3 AFR to 800 kg/hr anda 14.0 AFR in a little less than .1 second. My advisors and brain trust seem to think my boost controller just suddenly dumps everything and I go into Sunday Drive mode. Makes sense to me 'cause I can't see anything in the datalogs. I think I'll go back to the old controller setup and see how that works.

You should have come over. Don't let a little old cop-a-phobia put you off.

**Mars_302** · 04-13-2008, 10:10 PM

which one? both were nice. the one with the black wheels was trapping at 130MPH the pass i saw. very impressive.

i loved the pinto, the red turbo/civic/hatch car was impressive, alot of nice GNs and GSX, and my favorite was the 66/67 nova

very cool I wished I coulda made it but we had to shoot up to Homassasa Springs to p/u the new puppy wait till you meet him!

blown03mach1 · 04-13-2008, 11:06 PM

Stangonline was the quick Mach and I was the slow Mach out there. LOL I never really got what I felt was a good run in today. For some reason I was down 2lbs of boost and this was a first time out with a new tranny/clutch combo so some learning to do there. I was hoping for a low 12, but I never saw it.

Stangonline does indeed have a sick Mach! Now if he can stop spinning the tires for the first 330'.....

Stangonline · 04-13-2008, 11:18 PM

Between the older tires and my half-assed burn outs, I didn't really expect it to hook. About the only thing left stock in the car are the axles - so maybe it was better that it spun

Did anyone notice that nice black 01 Cobra with the hot chick driving?

Did Na306StAnG make it out there and run the new weapon?

plazma · 04-13-2008, 11:26 PM

You also had spyvo/powertoweight/stellarsvo/glassman-pinto guy and myself there repping ford tech.

We had alot of dumb issues at the track and even the night before so the runs weren't to fast for us that made it.

Kind of nice to have like zero wait in the stages and traction was there for the sub 300hp cars.

As for the pinto thats glassman's car. He was well into the 13's on a 175/xx/13 tire that seemed to spin only 1 tire. When we left he had made 21 passes and didn't go grab food as he was having to much fun!
