Ive said it a couple times already, I wasnt being a smart ass. I just havent done anything worth talking about.
The main reason I havent discussed my track outings is because it wasnt about the 1/8 or 1/4 mile times were right off the trailer. I was only looking to work on my tune and make sure the car could do a burn out, a few 60' launches and make sure it wasnt popping and cracking 100' after the hit. I had issues with building boost and getting the car to leave. I was also meeting the guy that I hired to help me tune. He came in and changed a few things while recommending I make more changes. I didnt go down there to do anything except a few burn outs and get comfortable with the car. I still needed to work on getting my license passes in but I wanted to test it first. Gateway was more than happy to let me make a few short hits and not try to run it out the back without a license. The guy laughed at me when I told him I would stay under 12secs in the 1/4 mile. I explained my situation and he was fine with giving me a tech car as long as I knew they would be watching. Dont forget Ive never been in a high HP car that Ive built from the ground up. Thats a lot of parts to make work after 3 years of building. I promise to post up a few video's when I start making some passes. See, not much info to talk about yet. |

Was the kinsler thread ridiculous? yes. At the end of norwalk We'll see who's joke thread comes closer. I bet wilke peeing on jacks tire is very likely. Jacks gotta sleep sometime. Seriously I hope you have a lot better time tuning and running that thing. It should be a beast. Like I said keep us posted sounds like some good hardware.
