Re: Richmond 9/8/06
Whoa whoa whoa...hold on. Adam ran a new best? Someone fill me in on this. I spent quite a bit of time today discussing this car's new problems and how he was talking himself out of even going to the track.
Was it the bypass or did we find out that the new tune created more usable power? Either way, congrats and glad today looked up for you.
edit: nevermind, it was probably the heat cycling of the tires on the dyno. Only those in attendance today would believe how much rubber came off those MT's. Holy lord.

Congrats to all of RPM then.
Yeah Adam had ran a 10.8x I think and then ran into some trouble tonight where his Y pipe came off. We jacked it up and worked with it and it worked out(I got an extra cutout for him if he wants for free).
Yeah that car is scary shifting around 4600 rpm and still running those times.

oh you said it was free... what's weird is adam and i were trying to figure out what YOU said as you walked away... if adam can't understand you you can be pretty sure it was 100% garbled
weather wasn't bad, but it'll be better in october

Re: Richmond 9/8/06
When it broke last night while we were fixing the exhaust, I told him he can have my old one. The motor part is still intact and he has the allen screws that hold the motor to the cutout frame. I am just using a manual cutout with the plate.
Yeah it may have sounded garbled

Re: Richmond 9/8/06
It was a good night and pretty fair weather.....not a huge turnout, but good nonetheless....I can't believe I saw a fullsize diesel pickup go 12.76 either, props to Adam, that thing is silly.......good silly, but silly.
