Sh!t, if we don't have any takers I might throw my pig street car in there for sh!ts and grins. Wont be competitive with the group, but sure would be fun. And I'm cheap, so free entry is right down my alley. See how it goes....

Go back to spooning pickle juice....

Don't go all pillow biter on us.

And you're right , that was not nice. You don't seem stupid, you just sometimes say some stupid chit You can kinda sorta take that as an apology.

Example of said stupid chit........Thinking that it is perfectly reasonable to challenge a NA car to a race when you are a twin turbo car. I call that CV syndrome. Cuz usually the only way they will race is with an unbelievably massive advantage.

But hey, I'll bite, so how bout that race?

I'm not going bitter.

I didn't call out a n/a car, re-read my comments. I was merely pointing out I would race someone without stipulations like your buddy, pickle.

Will you have a car at Norwalk?

I think you're into pickle tests or contests, parties or whatever, and that moves you into the biter column there blower boy. What is it with you guys and your repressed homosexual fantasies? Really how about you keep it to cars, and drop your love of phallic symbols, its obvious that brings you some sort of comfort. And while we're at it how fast have you gone there smart guy? Really a serious question how fast? Did you ever find that post of me bashing your beloved head? I'm sure not.

Why would a car set up na want to race a power adder car? Lets hear your logic.....so far its the same lame azz cvcoolaidebutthurt crybabybullcrap cuz you cant run with a comparable power adder car.

Better yet why would a twin turbo car want to race a NA car? serious question

J D W... I'll have to bring my kids cat to do the peein. The lil bastard loves to mark a shiny object.

Watch out for a black cat Jack... he'll pee on your wheels AND cross your path! Your weekend wont go well.

BTW No tequila for me.... New Years eve headin into 76 tequila damn near killed me. After all these years I still cant get it past my lips. That New Years day was rough!
Jack Daniels is more my preference. (Coincidence my sis lives in Lynchburg and bakes with the stuff?)
Of course if there's good beer around, especially draft I wont let it go to waste...

JDW, shouldn't you make some half way decent passes before calling everyone out?

Ok slow down and re-read my posts. I just made observations and the only guy I said anything about was kinsler.

I said nothing about skull dragging or beating anyone. Just responded to the comments I've seen lately. (Not to mention picking on pickle juice!)


I've made no claims in this post about how fast my car will be. It's a new combo I need to work out a few bugs.

I wish you a lot of luck with your new combination. No challenge here.

Once you get it all sorted out your target number is 7.40 at 194 mph set by a 406 cid Pontiac Engine with Diesel Turbos, with 240 cfm cast iron factory Pontiac heads, and a Turbo 400 trans with no second gear at 3,000# weight.

You match that number with your deal at 3000# race weight in 2014 and you did something. ps That number was set in 1996. That number also allows you to run your current combination (with the latest aluminum parts, turbos, etc.).

The more time that passes, the more incredible that performance shows itself to be.

Tom, was that car/combination at all streetable? All the Pontiac turbo builds today, that I am aware of, strive to be cars that have street manners and that level of performance (Dragweek type cars). Almost 20 years later that may be possible.

I agree, that is definitely an awesome goal to reach. Dont tell pickle.. Im sure Im a year or two (or three) off to get to that speed. I hope the process goes smoothly and I have the right guys helping me.

But talking it up is as much motivation for me as anything. I really dont care what yoo-hoo or pickle think, If everything works out I'll get there.

Why would he do that? Thats not the cv1 way now is it? Get your respect first then later on maybe race your car if its ever finished. Isn't this the same guy that was gonna beat your balls black and blue last year then didn't show with a car? just curious

Yes, he was going to skull drag me down Norwalks 1320 after he finished his fruity drink in that red solo cup through a straw.

Without a comp license.
