does anyone know who was the yellow FD doing "10.8 i think" ? I never seen that guy before.
I'm surprised you noticed since there are a lot of yellow FDs lately.

That car belongs to Romeo, owner of TSADYNO.com He also has a 9.0 sec 1st gen full body car.
He just setup that 3rd gen for the street class next year and getting some runs in before the year is over.

Here's a pic of his 1st gen.

Went on the dyno with E70 (winter blend), made 640HP, blew motor on 4th pass at that HP. Front rotor ceramic of plug broke off, boost guage flickering. Decided to drive home about 20 miles, called speednyc to follow me. Half way home the motor just started working perfect so something was stuck somewhere. I drove back to the shop where everyone saw me leave with a blown motor, it was kinda funny.

I'm using ALS seals in the motor, not sure if they warped but my friend Tony told me to drive the car. He says the rotor touched, he's seen it happen around that HP and knew it would clear up. WEIRD!!!!

If I'm running on the street (20psi) I will use either the Sunoco or the Citgo but SK Speed in Lindenhurst but if am going up to 30psi I only use the Sunoco on 30S off the Southern state. I swapped a few of my friends over to E85 and they use other stations and noticed issues.

Looking good Enzo. Looks like you had some fun too. 8's are just around the corner for you. Congrats and glad to hear you didn't get hurt on that run onto the beach.

Anthony, thats why it hard to do it with a stock motor without clearancing or the all mighty e-shaft. The engine will flex when its pushed that hard. Just a fact. Good to hear your all better now

thanks, i did not even think about that. E70 is the winter blend of E85, the use it in the Northeast to help the cars start easier.

Hes coming for you Ant trying to steal your spot light lol. What ever happened to that first gen. I hear that motor is inside of that FD now, that true ?

61620B: Enzo's motor is not stock, its a Thunder Racing engine. You must be confusing his engine with mine

He got fed up with the 1st gen and decided to build a 3rd gen but I think your brother is sparking his interest to bring the 1st gen back out lol.

He did put that motor in the 3rd gen but had a fuel pump issue and blew it up so he has a street port in there now. Waynespeed only gave him like 580HP until he gets used to the car lol.

As for him next year, I don't know what he's going to do. I'm more concerned about Ernie coming to all of our local events now that he got a taste of 1st place!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I spoke to Javier and he will be pushing the 10.0 index at all the events next year so we'll see what happens!!!
