By the way... It was way too hot for a car event!!! I'm now thinking about skipping all car event this summer :)

Ya I got baked. So much RX-7 representation made it worthwhile. I didn't see any 2nd gens though :dunno:

Phil is my car too ugly to put on film? hehe

I just bought some soft struts. I am about to also buy a set of ET streets. Maybe my 60 foot will come down and the car will go faster.

Congrats to Mike on the 10.6 pass. We are all fortunate to make it home with all apex seals intact!

Yes Bryan!!! Go get that shit painted and it will be worthy of me posting it on Youtube.. Make sure to get it painted Lightning Yellow... like my 8 :)

I wish i was able to go.

There is another one of these in Nov... I'll most likely go if the weather is cooler :)

Herblenny 06-01-2009 05:57 PM

Alright Bryan... Just time time... Next time it has to be clean and painted for me to take pics and video :)

Thanks for posting that up phil. Should have got my burn out in there:D. That was a 2nd gear burn out...

damn I need to work on 1st to 2nd gear! I wish I would have kept my foot on the gas on the 1-2. I would have not bogged. Next time I will have a 1.4x 60 ft, not no freakin 1.8 bs on ET Streets. Crap for suspension kept that car from going faster.... Next step is a 10 second pass.

12.6 at 114 14 psi of boost, 2.1 60 ft BFG DR/15psi qualifying run 1 of 3
12.3 at 124 20 psi of boost, 2.2 60 ft BFG DR/15psi qualifying run 2 of 3
11.79 at 123 20 psi of boost, 1.9 60 ft BFG DR/13psi qualifying 3 of 3
11.71 at 124 20 psi of boost, 1.89 60ft BFG DR/11psi street 16 win vs mid 11 evo
11.54 at 122 20 psi of boost, 1.83 60ft ETstreet 11 psi street 8 win vs 240 turbo/nitrous
11.6x at 122 20 1.79 ............. street 4 loss vs. 650rw 300zttnosauto

First two wins were driver error which is half of racing! :D Brad in the 300 races at the track every weekend. Better suspension I think I can catch him with everything the same. But that will be next time!! I had fun and I appreciate HDP letting me use his ET streets. Have to get some...

It was really good to meet all of you guys... i hate that my car is slow. hahahaha.

sk8world 06-01-2009 08:10 PM

sounds like everyone was happy. Phil took the win in the show, Brian sounds happy with the 11's (for now) Don drives like an old lady, I will never be a bracket racer....

I am really thinking of a 2 step not only to get faster times but be more consistent on 60 footers. On my 10.6 pass it was a 1.65 60. If I could have pulled a 1.45 on the same pass and not had to get off the throttle in 4th I would have been looking at a 10.2-3 time slip....

Bryan@BNR 06-01-2009 09:12 PM

well when you look at the whole picture I guess I have to be happy. The 1g has been parked in the same place for 2 years in the shop. What more can you ask for when you bleed the brakes, replace the battery and put it on the track. I didn't change plugs, or change oil. Just turned the key lol. It didn't even hickup on any pass. I should have beat on it a little harder but atleast I won some money. I think I may quit my job and race for reward money.
