Ran another 8sec pass
Well we ran another 8 second pass yesterday it was 8.95@149 we've done better, we've done worse. It made a lot of the V8 guys give a big thumbs up to see such a little car move out. I think we may just turn up the boost and see what we'll get. Right now we are only running 23lbs. Small turbo. T-61, no IC(no room),eight 1680's fed through two rails, two pumps, two regulators. The car has some room to grow, I'm just not sure if I wanna up the boost on this little turbo or rework the chassis to fit the larger turbo it needs. We'll see. Anyway just thought you guys would like to know we stood up against the local V8's pretty good, well, very good, they were all in the 9's

Rumor has it, it's not even your car.

Don't cry cause we're putting down the same power you are on a much smaller turbo. Besides, from what I've seen you can't drive all that well so I'm not too worried. Go play in your own thread where you can actually impress people with your skillz. You wont be responded to anymore in this one. 93 R1 It's a Starlet.

I built my car to tear up the local streets/tracks.
My short times are horrible and that's because how low my car is. That will be fixed.

We just started running drag races a little while ago so were not that experienced (yet!) ... more time to get stuff situated and get more expereince with it and we hope to get better times. Car has alot of potential and more power to be had. probably next year (season) we'll put more time and effort in it!
