August 14th is actually the date I'm going to be starting my mini-vacation staying with my aunt and uncle in Des Moines for awhile
Didnt plan to be up there that early though, but it sounds like it might be a good time to try out a different track for once and put some faces to some names.
Then again I'm also a panzy when it comes to launching my car with the 10bolt and 3.08's haha

I might consider going in a month other than august though. I'd like to see if that free .1-.2 is legit.. (I could use it....)
Mamamia, I'd like to see your car in person. Could be a good few weekend nights while you're in town. PM me for my number. Dunno if I could make it out myself but I could for sure point you in the right direction of some good car guys round these parts.

AutoMods
07-26-2011, 09:37 PM
problem with running when its hot out is you know your car will do better later in the year in cool weather so then you have to go later in the year to get a personal best. if you have weak parts like i do with my weak rear end, i don't like to waste passes running on a sub-par day.
now if my car had all the right bullet proof parts, i wouldn't mind going to the track 10 times a year

Trust me I will race you N/A at the track...you dont stand even a small chance, hope your car runs DAM GOOD!, and let me spray on the street. Funny you fools ever heard of N20 delays, so lets see my car runs 9.xx on n20 at the track comming on at WOT so if I delay it on the street it still runs high 9.xx. Dont always bank on the AWD factor. See ya @ TriSkate.

As for Brent....Then he should have no problem whooping my ass...lol Bet $100 with me on the race...and take Brent! I think the heat is getting to you...lol But so did George's Talon, have better than 11.0s.... but we seen what his car ran, Im not saying it dont, BUT...That car will NEVER!!!!!!!!! run faster than 11.0s unless he put an Auto in it....

I should have known you were too stupid to pick up on that fact. So your big bad street machine can't drive 2 hours but you'd have me drive 4 hours up to you? Yeah, not gonna happen. You're such a badass, why wouldn't you want to come down here? Easy stroll in the park according to you. $100 for gas money for an easy win? Sounds like a no brainer to me. I'm just rocking a 305 turd gen with an exhaust leak anyway. Easy money pumpkin. Let's see what the wave machine can do in unfamiliar territory. Bring your buddies.

i never once claimed to be "king" of anything, you never answered my first question, and HOW MUCH FUCKING MONEY DO YOU WANT TO RACE FOR?!?
i think your getting a little to caught up in your witty quiffs and shit talking that you actually forgot what we were talking about...
if you still cant read
I CANT FUCKING RACE THE 13th....just like you cant race next weekend...so lets find something that works for both of us?
if we can round up a group to go to dsm some weekend i will gladly cruise up there...but if this is going to be another run around bullshit shittalk fest that ends in no racing then im obviously not going to waste my precious "mcdonalds" hours on driving to our shithole capital...
and just a note; you can make ONE big post and not six little ones...
This what you're referring too? Now you're butthurt about how I post? Glad to know how thin skinned you are, sweet pea. There ya go, you said it. Round up your guys and come on down. I'm doing the same down here.
Anyone got any issues with Aug 27th? The dirty cock handling boy can't make it the 13th and it was pointed out to me that's the date of the Ice Cream Cruise in Omaha anyway. I better make another stop and get my tune redone while I'm there from the sounds of it. Shit hole capitol, lol. Funny from a guy from Belle Plaine.

and would put a dirty cock slapping on your pile of Shit on the street OR the track...
I just asked if he'd prove himself. Please note the use of the word "street". He wanted to start making the claims. I'm just simply stating he should put his money where his mouth is or shut the fuck up. Either way, it doesn't matter to me. I'd be nice to have the beer money though.

I'm coming. I've got a 6 speed Vette and a bad attitude. Sure to run mid-13s.
Not a chance if it's stock, not a chance with bolt-ons either. Had one brand new, they are SLOW.....

Dude, its a Vette. I thought they were all fast?
Haha... has cat-back exhaust. Thats it. I bet it goes at least high 13s. Its not fast, but its decent for only having 245 crank hp.

My dads old 89 ran mid/low 14's and it was automatic. I'd bet you'll see 13's.

Lol... shit is getting real.
It crept away from a Trailblazer SS on the highway and can take my buddy's LS4 Impala SS.
If I can manage to get a decent 60', I think a 13.90 is possible.

Awesome day... awesome turnout.
Pretty ridiculous ride home though... ha.
Best pass was a 13.735@102.09 on a 2.0 60' mildly heatsoaked.
Made 2 13.7 passes, 2 13.80s and a couple 14s.
Somebody owes somebody $5!!

cool. pretty good for an old vette. what did everyone run as far as brent, joe, ed, george, josh, tyler , dallas etc ???

Brent did decent, I never did see who bought steak at texas roadhouse...
Batwood
08-14-2011, 08:55 PM
Dallas didn't run, Brent made a 12.1 with a 1.5 60'.
Josh ran a 13.7@97 or something.... so I'm definitely gonna have to challenge his place as KOTS. ha. Some weight reduction and race gas should give me a couple extra tenths.
I'm sure George, Ed, and Chekal will chime in with what they ran. I hear Ed bought dinner though!

It was fun though.

13.1 thats not bad for a 240sx. I thought josh beat kitch , should josh be in the 12's?

13.7 in a STI... looks like i should through my old ecu map back on my car and run him :)

I was told the previous owner went 12.8.
Josh beat Kitch from a roll I think? Lost from a dig?
Lack of driver mod?

if he gets a Wide Band A/F guage i do some tunning for him. then he should have 12's

ran an 11.1 at 137 with a 1.7 60' against eddy b. and fastest trap was a 139 at 11.43 and 2.00'. had a lot of fun and will go again to get my 10s time slip. need to figure out the boost issue I was having and replace my ac compressor that took a shit on the last run.

139 is haulin balls.
James said you picked up like 40mph in the back half?
I never saw your slips.
I just looked... the Vette gained 24mph. Even that seems high...

08-15-2011, 04:28 PM
most turbo cars pick up 30 mph on the back end. so 40 would be very nice.

Get any video of your runs Logan besides the EddyB one?
Jappbox
08-15-2011, 04:41 PM
Logans, 1/8 mph is low cause hes spinning those dunlaps past the 60' mark, thats why hes going 39mph in the back half. some drag radials or slicks will drop it to a 10.5 car easy, but then youll start breaking more stuff! we made 2 passes in the 370z, one together with jenn driving and I made a solo pass, left at 2k off the brake car needs to leave at 3-3500rpm but its a Auto with no launch control. still a 2.18 60" ran 13.8@104 bone stock with nitrogen in the tires LOL

holy crap, i thought you were just another 35r evo but those trap speeds are great. you should run allgo. i'd run you but I need some better street tires first

Ryan its a HTA86 with stock head with cams and springs, 2.3L His boost was still low on 3rd gear i was trying to fix it so he ran his 38psi the whole run to get his 140 trap

wtf were you running the ac going down the track!?! haha
bonesaw53
08-15-2011, 07:58 PM
Haha no but I was thinking about it and the ac was making a ticking noise for a while now. Must have gotten too hot at the track and boom roasted. Brian I'll show you the slips sometime this week but yep +39 mph i'n the back half. Looking forward to going at least one more time this year. Fix boost and make a 10s pass. I'll be happy.

you know come to think of it, AEM likes to turn some Random AC thing on, happend to my Evo on the dyno started "ticking" Me and Martin at ams had to figure out why it just randomly turned something on. I bet that was it, and i didnt know it had been ticking, after time it would cause it to lock up... I was in the AEM to you should have told me about the Tick!! LOL
Deimos
08-15-2011, 08:51 PM
man I wann send you this aem of my friend they have an aftermarket turbo done horribly bad and the car has cut wires to the aem and it runs better with the IAC unplugged. I tried to refer it to you Jesse cuz lets face ain't my thing...
Jappbox
08-15-2011, 08:55 PM
I really dont like working on other peoples stuff, Ive even had to have logan just go to AMS a few times cause ive been so busy this summer, This winter I might be a little more free to do more stuff, but that AEM with Wire issues sounds like a nightmare. Ive noticed with AEM each platform has its little glitches, even my viper has a few.

bonesaw53
08-15-2011, 09:53 PM
Jesse, sorry I didn't think of it. Only made the noise when I turned on the ac but was very loud when it was on. When I turned the car on after the last pass it would shoot metal shavings out of the area of the compressor. even kill the motor on idle 2 times. So it was completely seized. Wonder if it had any effects on my passes. but none the less looking forward to taking it off and seeing how bad it was on the interior of the part. has to look like hell.

am i wrong or should your car be mid 10's with those kind of trap speeds though??
StreetSweeper
08-15-2011, 11:06 PM
140 mph is actually plenty good enough to run 9s beings blacky has been 9.80s @ 135.. but of course thats with 1.39 60 ft times. So you cant really compare his car to mine though. I have allso been fastest of 10.62 @ 125 on motor, witch my car runs consistant 11.00s a high 10.90 on a good day @ 126 on the motor. Being set up to run on the Jug really kills blackys N/A Times, converter is so tight it will even bog down of the T-break on motor. The blue car has easy 10.50s with some 1.5's 60 ft times and good 1-2 shifts with that kind of trap speeds.
Generally a good runnning car should back half atleast 30 mph.

My car pulled a 1.58 60' off the trailer and ran like shit to a 12.1@96. I swapped coils and turned the boost down to try and fix my miss fire and the 3rd pass went a 11.8@120 still missing with a 1.6 60'. I'm trying a few different things to try and correct my miss, hope its a simple fix, but I can't wait to back to the track and turn the boost up to see what it really has in it!
