RotorFest 2012 Bracket Class Champ

So kinda old news since it happned sunday but won this years RotaryFest Bracket class

Car was cutting consistent 1.4's, Clutch Started slipping of the first pass going into 3rd, went 10.33 and 10.32@ 133 on my test and tune passes (24PSI) Fourtnaetly the car was launching so good, and the 1-2 was its normal rocket ship i was able to peddal / get on the brakes most of my passes (running 10.5-6's @ 100-110 mph) lol

Clutch is out and solution is in the mail, next week atco is having another import gablers race, should be backtogether for it.

Got to give it to my Team, Tunner (wilmeranic) and shop (JPR Imports). all the "theroy's " have been working
Best trophy EVER!

Yea, I was kinda mad i didnt get to make my rounds likeIi had planned, but between talking to people in our pits, playing crew for jim and wilmer in the Q16, and doing our thing in the brakets, there wasnt any time.. im sure ill run into you guys soon enough.

Lol, yea there really arent any small rotary guys in the NE

Yea ordered the RAM, having my clutch shop cut the FW and PP... cheapest option to get me through rest of the season

Thanks for putting on a killer event!! this year has been blessed, even with my fairly large issues @both this event and the pan-ams the car is doing its job workign arround the problem. I know the stock driveline was gonna be headaches, but its just a personal goal to write my name in the sand. (Talking **** to Ernie is a bonus lol) now that the clutch is in check, a good box going in and finally gonna turn up the boost (been runnign 24Psi all season) and see what she can really do.

I need to build a trophy case lol, all i had was the lone soldier from lastyears NortheastTuner!

Good luck @ island today!

Anthony this was the new box lol, but i destroyed the clutch LOL (its always something), new clutch is in but when i went to track I had wierd oil pressure, so only made one break in baby pass... hopefully friday ill get to make a full pass. if it goes clean @ 24psi, ill add in the stages and take it to 32 and get kicked out for a bit lol
gears should go out monday to liberty, custom CNC case, still in design phase, but moving along..
