Hey Adam

[fbodyguy]

Adam are you sand baging it on that quartermile time or is that without the juice? :)

[amoander]

Which car? I don't usually sandbag? Mr. Modification (j/k) That quartermile time posted on this site is 4 my GT.

[69gt4speed]

Confuse your foes, never tell the whole story, and hope for the best. I learned that from a 69 z28 guy.

Do I know you? I'm at my corner gas station and can't find my way home and have a bad foot..... whoever you are come and get me...

Here's a new one.....written by some college guy

The V8 is my friend, I need no others.
He leadeth me to trounce upon small engines; He pushes me past the slower cars.
He createth me torque; He leadeth me in the pack of performance for pleasure’s sake.
Yea, though I drive on the highways of annoying exhaust notes, I fear no scorn, for thou art beautiful; thy rumble and thy burble they comfort me.
Thou roasteth thine tires for me in the presence of abundant power; thou blesseth my right foot with power, my car purreth nicely.
Surely power and torque shall accompany me all the days of my life.
And I will dwell in the lot of the fuel station forever and ever.
Amen.

Ok ya beat me happy now... :yawinkle: I said a college kid wrote it.

[amoander]

Ohh, Mr. Online translater. He he Ok enough mumble jumbo.

[fbodyguy]

<Lost!

[69gt4speed]

Yea Tony he does that, showing off, confusing us. You notice though he did say it was his 03 gt, he didn't say spray or n/a. We know a 2v gt might run a 14.0 or 13.9 stock. Stang guys... just the flip side of camaro guys. Heard ya been going to school btw. I have some supposed to go to soon on the robotic pick and place vision system.

I can only imagine he starts up talking foreign language in his g/f's ear to get her to do things..... Wish I could have done that yrs ago.

[fbodyguy]

Yeah Rob, I'm sitting here more and more working school work, right now Composition classes. Usually have about 20 hours worth of reading each week and homework.
I believe ya on the foreign language and the GF, I think he's Mr. Rico Suave :)j/k
On the mustang time- that is what I was wondering I've seen that car run on juice and I don't think he's telling it all :)

[fbodyguy]

BTW I did see you out last night, I was sitting at the Chop House enjoying a nice dinner, watching the traffic about 9:30pm $1 drafts and $1.50 bottles after 9.
I take it all is well with the leg now?

[69gt4speed]

I believe ya on the foreign language and the GF, I think he's Mr. Rico Suave j/k
Ya I know... A laid back animal... You should see how he bangs those gears in that stang. Surprised it takes such abuse.

On the mustang time- that is what I was wondering I've seen that car run on juice and I don't think he's telling it all
Probably not imo, he doesn't need to toot his horn, he knows he's bad, we'd all be scared otherwise.

I take it all is well with the leg now?
Well go back to work monday dr. said it was a nasty spiral break, but said it looks good. I know it isn't 100%, ask Adam I could barely shift last sunday. Well worse than usual, I lined up on some kaw rocket bike guy with a jacket and helmet. My wife yelled at me for doing so poorly. Tried a powershift into 2nd. Ankle will get better, a 50# clutch helps. Soon work on clutch too, it's gone.

[69gt4speed]

BTW I did see you out last night..

Yea some ankle exercise, Mike and I were crusiing around a bit. He was with me 2-3 yrs. ago when I ran hmmm apples355, the monte carlo w lift off hood. Correct me if I'm wrong. Wifes boy, he likes the gm's a lot, hoping I'd get a lesson.

[fbodyguy]

haha

[ZEE]

I was out for a short time last night. Took a while to get the car so I could drive it. Half the interior is still out of it. First time since fall. Couldn't take it any longer.

316

[69gt4speed]

I saw a red camaro but not a conv. :yawinkle: Snazzy lil signature ya got, you feeling frisky or something Zee? Yo Adam, better get that coupe ready..... If Adam can't cover it I'll call ol Scotty.

[ZEE]

Figured you'd like that picture.:)

[fbodyguy]

i smell a rematch! :D

[ZEE]

I think you must have shat yourself. That's what your smellin.

[fbodyguy]

Let me check I will get back with ya.... your sick!

[amoander]

My 03 runs 12.60's all day on the nitrous. Im pretty darn honest. Not much of one for alot of BS. The coupe times are unknown at this time he he. It really isn't that fast and my GT isn't fast either. The GT could run faster,but i am also cutting the nitrous off at 5800 and blapping off the rev limiter at 6200 crossing the line. Its geared to steep for the nitrous and my 60' are crap. I am not willing to let the nitrous be on any higher than that or rev the car any higher. I would like the motor to stay together for atleast 3 more years. Oh by the way i never sandbag, i will let up if i am beating someone badly. No point in keeping in the race if you are winning by 5+ cars.

[fbodyguy]

I was just thinking about that one night when we were side by side, you seemed pretty damn quick, that is why I was asking, fast car though, no doubt:)

[amoander]

Its just a mid 12 second car as it sits. When i tell people how fast cars are i usually don't say the fastest time, i tend to average them. I know quit a few guys who run for example a best of 12.2 but really only average 12.4's. Out of ten runs he only had 1 in the 12.2 range and the rest 12.4 range. So in all reality its a 12.4 car in my book (it often comes down to how good the driver is). I know for sure that if we are side by side again it won't be the same story =-)

[amoander]

Oh, if you were comparing your E/T times to mine, where the big difference is in the 60', ur is more then 2 tenths quicker then mine. People don't realize that if your drop a tenth off a 60' it will decrease your total e/t by more then that, it is almost like a exponential curve.

[fbodyguy]

I need to get a set of Nitto's or ET streets ro run on the street with though, that is the best time from the strip launching at 3K but soft shifting to not hurt the forks in the 6 speed

[ZEE]

^ weeny! Drive it till it breaks.

[69gt4speed]

Tony, you got those weak shifter forks? I got a weak input shaft, I'm thinking of putting a big spline (viper) in it. Oh yea Adam, I changed the tranny fluid other day, 2 qts of rp syncromax and 2.1 qts of mobile 1 atf. My shifter was loose, I took it all apart cleaned out and put in new grease. Definitely the easiest way to fill up the tranny with oil is through shifter hole.

[amoander]

I second that Rob, so does it really shift better or not?

[fbodyguy]

^ agree
I filled from the shifter box also, very easy.
I want to upgrade the forks and input shaft to the viper spec also and change my sixth gear to something a little better then the .50 OD :( t

[Juggernaut]

hey rob you still running IRS ir solid?? also are you on stock half shafts? i remember when you broke one at the track a while back.

[69gt4speed]

I second that Rob, so does it really shift better or not?

Maybe a lil, there had a lot of metal shavings in shifter. I might experment with the 2 coil shifter springs, lighter, heavier ones. It uses a one piece s.s. ball riding in cnc alum socket. I want to see the t.o.b. retainer sleeve. They make a hardend steel retainer sleeve. I tryed some time ago to put a lil neverseize on the sleeve like doing the old t5's. I wondered if getting it dry moly coated would help. Another thing is the cable, so far the stock ford works best, easiest. I want it to shift like my old t5. As it is it shifts like my old toploader, which is no big surprise bigger gears like the toploader, and tremec bought fords patterns yrs ago. I'll let ppl know if anything works.

No, I have dss level 5's halfshafts in there now, with some stock spares. I broke 2 at the strip. You never get enough traction to break on street. It would always break about 5 to 10 ft out. Each time I launched a lil higher to get a better 60 ft even slipping clutch it would break till last year with the 5's. They have more splines, larger outer cv joint and hub, reuse the stock tripod. Same place that makes fwd/awd halfshafts. Heavy car is bad on parts, if it was fox weight probably never break plus be faster. Cobra kit car guys like the setup.

[69gt4speed]

Well that ol Amoander is sandbagging again. Another gt and a ls1 went by the wayside. On real street tires no less with a tread rating of 300. Next he will be like me asking ppl to sit in the back. Learning my tricks, he's a sharp grasshopper.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eGblsNXkJog

[Domestic Disturbance]

u best not b talkin jive rob lol
ls1's only lose when they want to ;)

[Domestic Disturbance]

or when they r slower than the car they race also.. i guess that would make sense.
btw now that i joined cru again to adam rob and ne1 else out the other weekend good times nice meeting yall

[69gt4speed]

Well you notice I could be talking about any so equipped cars anywhere. There are lots of ls1's and gt's around even here. Adam normally is a good driver, better than me. I will see what work will let me do fri, sat. I may be off early at 1900. Maybe you could meet Zee he has a nice ls1 d/d, lots of mods. Maybe fbodyguy. Both of them A+ in my book. And again Apples355 another good guy, that monte of his looks sharp.

[black88gt]

that monte is very sharp. she sounds good too

[amoander]

I ordered up Saleen wheels 18x9 front 18x10 back. Called all the links you sent me Rob and a few more and couldn't get the 03's in 17x10 chrome rear. Mounting 305/35 nittos on the rear. It was some fun racing last saturaday, i am also pulling the 4:10's out and putting in 3:73's also, tired of reving sky high in the quartermile.

[Domestic Disturbance]

ya ive seen zee's stuff on here b4 but havent seen many guys in person. theres another ss down the street from me its an SLP but i havent gone down there to talk to him. ne of u gonna b out thursday at advanced?

[fbodyguy]

i am also pulling the 4:10's out and putting in 3:73's also, tired of reving sky high in the quartermile.
So now you'll be slower ?? :)

[ZEE]

The world needs more slower Mustangs.:)

[fbodyguy]

Instead of Z it should be flash though for that signature :p

[black88gt]

that will be interesting to see how that affects your 1/4 w/ those lower gears. your MPH will definitely be better since you can actually go through the traps w/o hitting the rev limiter.

[ZEE]

Instead of Z it should be flash though for that signature :p

Shhhh! They don't know about that over here.

[69gt4speed]

ya ive seen zee's stuff on here b4 but havent seen many guys in person. theres another ss down the street from me its an SLP but i havent gone down there to talk to him. ne of u gonna b out thursday at advanced?

I'll be workin thurs. friday and sat off at 19:00 though.

Sorry about the wheels, Adam we should of picked up a set last fall.. I may try to get a 2 in stock finish 10.5's.

Ya we do need slower stangs, they get too fast no one does any tests. Where is that progressive boost/tune dial, I swear I bought one. That's right, they are backordered.

[amoander]

Actually i believe my car should be faster, but for everyones benefit I hope it is slower (j/k)

[69gt4speed]

My friend Sam got his gt down into hi 11's stock longblock running 13# through a vortech no aftercooler. One day he got bad gas, or mixed it wrong, it preignited and bent a rod, broke a land. So 410 rwhp on 2v stock parts is pushing it at 10/1 cr and running boost. He had it tuned by jerry w of sct for max. power.

[amoander]

I am only putting down 370 or so, i and i really don't think i will be adding anymore horse power soon.

[ZEE]

One meelion frickin horse power!
321

[fbodyguy]

Ahhh your drunk shut up, no I'm drunk I need to shut up :)

[Domestic Disturbance]

camaro's and beer for the win!

[fbodyguy]

A friend of mine, had a friend that turned 30, everything was doubles last night, she had way to many Dr. Peppers with Bacardi Limone :)
The Captian was pretty easy to drink last night...

[amoander]

That damn Captain will stab you in the back i tell you, wait till this morning, that bastard!

[fbodyguy]

yeah there is no moving real fast yet :) he has his hook in me

[69gt4speed]

Funny stuff. I ran into the guy with the procharger lt camaro at dinner. Story of a green camaro and I breakin stuff. I think Adam been drinking last night, I had to hear about it Adam, why aren't we there? I gotta take her to the poker tables. It was a bust last night pretty much for me, probably Tony had the best deal last night. Arhhhh

[ZEE]

I've been working Saturdays so can't be out passed my bedtime on Fridays.

[amoander]

Soooo... You guys still think I sandbag all the time????

[fbodyguy]

Soooo... You guys still think I sandbag all the time????


Duh :) j/k

[69gt4speed]

Yea it ran in the 11's last weekend when you wanted it. We all saw it. I saw it at the end flying....

[ZEE]

Probably got a chevy motor in it. He hasn't opened the hood in awhile.

Rob, I didn't realize you were 106 years old. Your lookin pretty good for your age.

[69gt4speed]

Jay, you could be right hmmm. Though it sounds the same as always. You would think it would sound meaner. He did borrow my old tires, it must of been that, I had left 50 hp in them. Forgot to air them down and put fresh air in them.

And for Tony.....

http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fusea ... 1825622556 (http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoid=1825622556)

[fbodyguy]

The coupes! neat vid:) I liked that.

[amoander]

Oh i forgot about that special air of yours rob, bad news guys, canceled the rim and tire order due to it would take 4-8 weeks to get them in, ordered DR's so i can go to WFC.

[ZEE]

If you get rid of that bottle that will save you some weight. It's probably heavy. Street tires are lighter. Don't get drag radials.:)

[amoander]

Haaa, honestly Zee i bet you some people on here would actually believe that as good advice. =-) I sell the bottle and get some 235/30 street tires stat.

[Stang5oh93]

Oh i forgot about that special air of yours rob, bad news guys, canceled the rim and tire order due to it would take 4-8 weeks to get them in, ordered DR's so i can go to WFC.

You're heading to Indy this year? Cool hopefully I'll see ya there. We plan to take my car as well. What class are you planning to run? I'm going to run ET2, I thought about the Wild Street Class but it seems like you get more racing for your money with the Bracket classes.

[amoander]

Not participating at the track, never been to indy, far drive and to damn lazy to trailer the car and all the gear to a place i haven't been. So just bringn the 03 and watching, I don't know if there is any street action, but will be in the evening seeing what is up. Heading up Thurs and head back Mon.

[Stang5oh93]

We're heading up Thursday and coming back Monday as well.

[69gt4speed]

We be out to rustle up some of them there camaroos. Ride the pony hard.... Yippe kai yea...

[fbodyguy]

<ducking :)
You guys should caravan down, in case anyone has a problem, we all know about them Fords j/k! spell it with me F-O I mean J-O-K-E :) kidding guys :)
I'm going to Indy at the end of June for an event, taking the 4-runner with spare tires for road racing, tools and a jack. J's (wife) uncle lives in indy and said we can stay with him.

[fbodyguy]

Hey bruce lee, err i mean Zee whats up with that hoky LS1 sig :)

[ZEE]

Just been playing with Photoshop. Experimentin'.

[Domestic Disturbance]

this camaro done there been rustled

or somethim like that idk wat it means but roll with it

[69gt4speed]

Well got to hand it to the camaros, they did well last night. Mike got to see a lil which was my intention (Anitas middle son). He's a big chevy guy.

[fbodyguy]

Where were you at Rob? I was out till 10:30-11 and went home I was looking for you guys. Jesus there were a lot of F-bodies out last night.

[69gt4speed]

Pretty much same routine, chrome.city. Got there about 10:30. Some guy tried to race me going to another place. It gave me practice off the light and on a roll. Gave Mike a lil thrill and chuckle.

[Domestic Disturbance]

i finally had a dsm4dnr, if thats wat that thing was haha

[69gt4speed]

Better than I had. lol On a sidenote I got the hood today, 20# off the front, I might get Adam now. It's got to be painted now, next week.

[ZEE]

Don't paint it. Paint is heavy. In fact take all that heavy blue paint off. Put red on it. Red is lighter.

[69gt4speed]

I already had one, too fast had to get blue, more calming and slower. What red would look like..
http://hofibertrends.com/photogal/tbill%20ogg%202000%20crop.jpg

[Domestic Disturbance]

go navy blue metallic. it reflects the slowsers off and helps u cut thru the air faster creating an extreme vacuum of billions of HP!

[fbodyguy]

U guys are listening to Zee too much and are starting to all sound like him :)

[amoander]

Aaaaa where am I?

[69gt4speed]

Still getting grief on the lil video of you vs that gto. Not a week goes by almost without some person saying something. I think I'll start forwarding my email to you on that. 7,587 views. :yawinkle:

[fbodyguy]

What video is this? linky please :D

[fbodyguy]

SPANKIN! Adam your going to have to start giving them a lead. :D Thanx Rob

[Stang5oh93]

Pretty much same routine, chrome.city. Got there about 10:30. Some guy tried to race me going to another place. It gave me practice off the light and on a roll. Gave Mike a lil thrill and chuckle.


Where is this Chrome City? I know there is a Chrome Horse in CR but I think that it more of a Biker hang out?

[69gt4speed]

Chrome city is at 16th and williams blvd. next to advance auto on sw corner. J.C. runs the place.

Yea Tony, I like his launch, shifting, why he wins. Pm him for the long version.... I forget the link.

[amoander]

Oh by the way, Jeff and I ran into the driver of the SS in the fist race a few weekends ago when jeff was in his SS and he informed me and jeff no car he has raced has ever beaten him by two cars (it looks like 2.5 to me) Thought i would throw that out their. To the GTO drivers defense and the Z06 (ill post that video when my computer start gets fixed and i can convert it over), i don't think enough people put value into decent traction and drag radials, my GT gets shitty traction, but if your running stock street tires your in trouble.

[fbodyguy]

<< street tires and not DR's :(

[Domestic Disturbance]

kumho ecsta mx's for the win!

and do u kno who's ss that was?

[amoander]

don't know his name, automatic white SS with a shift kit

[DustinsDuster]

my GT gets shitty traction, but if your running stock street tires your in trouble.

i havent had any problems yet....

[Domestic Disturbance]

did it have hockey stripes on the side?

[amoander]

yup

[fbodyguy]

I have meet that guy, down at Texas Roadhouse a while back, nice kid, don't know his name though, he told it to me and I forgot.

[Juggernaut]

those are some good runs. You sure did give it to that GTO rob.

[69gt4speed]

That was Adam's gt that ran the 06 gto. I have not officially. All I did was help invite ppl., what they did was their own deal.

[Domestic Disturbance]

the kid who owns the white ss with hockey stripes name is logan

[69gt4speed]

"Someone" bought a new toy. I'd be scurred. Ought to be worth another couple tenths.
