Flaco testntune part 3
 
Flaco Racing went out to go test again for the 3rd time at the track in irwindale speedway.

My friend(RollinRock) filmed the whole thing,while i was the tow car for flaco
waiting at the burnout box untill he finish his run.It was a crazy thing,The officials at the track would let Flaco's crew past the burnout box cuase they didn't have a wrist bands,I had mine, so i volunteerd to tow flaco, i didn't think about it just reacted,I was just a few feet away when his crew was pushed back. .Those people are asshole's at Irwindale,Flaco was was already in the lanes with
his engine running and then that happend.But in a way,he did a really nice burnout
and a good run.From my point of view he was moving really good and then shut off
about 3/4 of the way.

Thanks RollinRock:

major league is gonna have his hands full if they evr get to meet @ the track , thats if they can make the mayor league race @ nhra legal weight and turbo size and still stay competetive........ and in my opinion abel has the advantage he has been leagal all along and the car is looking sick :icon_tup:

61620B 06-06-07 01:53 PM

Illegal car
 
yup, your right.Major league has been using 3 turbos for the longest and they don't allowe 3 turbos in NHRA,They have to use only one 91mm turbo.Weight has to be kept a minimum too.

Flaco's pass last week at Irwindale was run on turbo spring pressure not the full race boost he usually runs,He manage to lay down a 1.15 60 foot with that low boost and run a 5.11 1/8 pass letting off 3/4 of the way.Thats why his MPH is low because it is a short at the end and you have to stop before the finish line to come to a safe stop.

By the way flaco has the 2nd fastest time there at Irwindale 1/8 mile track.He has
Run 4.60 1/8 mile on that same track a while back.

crispeed 06-06-07 02:13 PM

Nibo's 3-rotor FD is supposed to be there also. Supposedly it's running 3 turbos now.

teddyrx2 06-06-07 03:13 PM

Dude major league has got a mouth full of stuff going on let alone meeting weight standards and with being out of range in power mods he has to meet all the rules to stay in the game. Able is on his game and like manny said he has been legal all the way through. but i guess we will see what happens.

Santos in his corrila had the same problem at perris when he was running about three weeks ago. Let alone having boosting issues santos had to let off or feather the pedel through out each of his runs just so he wouldn't crash the car after the 1/8th mile finish. Will all that said santos still managed to pull 6.7 time slips with incredible 60 fts

fbdrifterrx7 06-06-07 04:58 PM

wtf are ya talking about. Major league is way over the requiered NHRA weight limit so putting its weight as a factor is just stupid because he is up there with abel. FUck nhra rules . NHRA aint shit anymore. IS Able running the series anymore? nope, so why should he play with their rules still? MAjor league runs in PR Not in nhra so why should he run nhra rules also? IF ML gotta run Nhra rules make all the aussie cars run NHRA rules aswell. Fuck nhra. That series is going nowhere. ML is a better car then Ables hands down. When Able is able to run more then 1 6sec runs in the 1/4 in the same day well ill give him respect. Major league already done it alot of times so why cant able do it?

fbdrifterrx7 06-06-07 05:00 PM

IS summer slam an NHRA event? HMMMM NO.........

R8-3 06-06-07 06:10 PM

Hey mate Abel has run multiple 6sec passes in the same day he done it in englishtown and Las Vegas and also he done multiple 200mph passes in the same day too something no other rotary in the world has done.One more thing all of our cars (aussies) are at NHRA specifications. I take Abel in a sweep.

:icon_tup: True that True that:icon_tup: ML hands down is one fast mother fucker and I don't know why he would go with NHRA rules just to meet weight standards it's an un-thought of move. If anything i would just stay with PR boyz and keep doing what he is doing without a doubt.

hondahater 06-06-07 07:55 PM

are the puerto ricans still mad at abel?

mannyvidal 06-06-07 08:01 PM

flaco has done with his car what many people can only dream of , to say that nhra aint shit is very ignorant and proves the nonsense that comes out of peoples mouths..... thats what people that havent won an old man "WALLY" would say and that is the goal of every dragracer out there win and win the best drag trophy out there if you whant i can let you borrow one of mines :rlaugh: :rlaugh: :rlaugh: in my opinion siguel has not found the way to make as much power as abel is doing at this time with one turbo :wallbash: so why dont we stop hating on the man and root him on .... to say that they wont meet some day @ the track would be stupid but when they do its gonna be a hell of a show :icon_tup: :icon_tup: :icon_tup:

13B-RX3 06-06-07 08:20 PM

Well put Manny.

Nobody is hating on Abel. Nhra is shit, Tell me how many Pro Rwd cars they get per event? hmm only 3, titan and Manny cruz. Wow what a great sanctioning body . look at nopi they get full fields on almost all their events with no problems. I would love to get an oldman but derserving it and racing for one is how everyone wants one, not by just having 2 other cars and getting bye runs cause of lack of cars. Siguel has not found the power that Able is making simly because he hasent been pressured too. Its not worth wasting a ton of money when you are the only one that is gonna be running the et's . Why u think u see him so much into the 13b 3/4chassi cars now? Cause their is a ton of competition there. This is about ML vs Flaco. Not about NHRA and their stupid sportcompact series.

Definetly an opinion, just like others oprion about Abel's claimed 1700HP, and how all oh his issues in the past were due to a wastegate.

WTF are you talking about?

mannyvidal 06-07-07 10:45 AM

Well, on the same note, you probable have seen Abel's post on www.pistonvsrotor.com (he supposedly post there every 1 million years or so), which is hard to tell if its him or not. However the owner of that web has posted on behalf of Abel (only seen this once).

If Abel has posted there, or messages has been posted by people close to him; then I can tell you one thing, he is NO SAINT, and likes to trash talk himself (remember his interview for rotarynews and pistonvsrotor?)

It goes from both sides :)

As far as PRican being mad at him, don't reallly think so; as you can see, there is nothing one side has done, that the other hasn't acomplished.

not sure if you where talking to me or not but all I asked was a question. One of my puerto rican friends told me some crazy shit about his brother talkin' smack and I was just wondering what was up with that. I'm not sayin' anything I just asked a question. So if you where talking to me FUCK YOU! If not then cool :)
