OMG heard from Titan
that Abel ran a 6.8!!!!!! at englishtown
no offical word yet but DAMM if that true awesome!!!

 

whoa...... what mph?

 

he ran against the new car from the scranton brothers celica that has been running 7 flat and beat him

184MPH <----- thats wierd tho

 

Either that was one hell of a 60' or he was lifting/lost traction on big end.

 

6.844 190.94 official time!

 

d/p damm wacked forum

 

Damn, those numbers still don't match up. I'd like to know what happened.

 

New Update just in:
Abel broke after that pass I guess
cause he is not making the call to get to round 2 of elminations against the TiTan celica

 

Oh BTW Ken scheepers totaled the all motor 1st gen
hood flew up -hit the wall hard

hes ok i think

 

Roger!
Abel didn't have the car on kill for that run. The car hooked a 1.00 60ft so the ET was going to be a great run. The reason why he didn't come back out was because he believes there is a broken side seal. He's been having problems with the two step breaking the side seals and turbo with the new setup in the RX-8.

 

Congrats to Abel, at least he's getting the car running in the 6's. Now all he's gotta do is stop breakage, be consistant, and start winning races.

 

holy moly...... looks like the rotary posse has got their **** set on KILL!!

 

yes Abel did break after that pass, he better step up his game because for qualifying he ran like a mid 8 and barely made it for pro class, so he is not being consistent, if he dont step up he will be playing around with his sponsorship

 

has he tried running with out the 2 step

the guys in australia hardly ever use a 2 step
PAC ran 7.1 without a 2 step

 

 

Awesome numbers.

 

DAMN. Thats sweet.

 

I'm going to put my new Capture card to good use so I could post that pass.

5/9/04 4:30-5 p.m.(ET) ESPN2

5/15/04 Repeat: 3-3:30 a.m.(ET) ESPN2

 

Just do it luiml73 doooo it!!!

That's an awesome time to run, especially considering he's still sorting out issues and that's his first real fast trip down the strip! Let's just wait and see how fast and consistant he can get this beast going.

Very sorry to hear about Ken's accident - but he's ok so that's good news.

 

here's the run....

 

Where?!?! oh man don't tease me like that!!

 

FLACO rules

 

 

Any videos of the run?

 

You mean one at the track had a camera to record that run.....come on guys....we need to see that run.
