Re: Drooze
Couldnt agree more I told the old man better there than half track.
I was yanking your chain about the review, Ive been waiting for a reason close  Next steps, buy my Stocker project here in Atlanta (Maybe Super Stocker) Drop it off, (I found something Ive been looking for for a while, dono what to do with it yet.....lots of options, Ill be looking to Art for advice on this one) Head home and put a pair of 5.7's together at the rate were going next run Ill just build em by the six pack. But weve got 2 5.7's at the shop to go together, and well....well set em each up a bit different. Different cam etc. And hopefully be in shape for Charlotte (Pistons are the biggie) so Ive got to make some calls Monday and beg plead and throw money at the only people that have them. Gots everything else..... Probably order another trans, this was our "Phase 1" trans and planned to be our backup, so if Paul can build us one in time, but also thinking of going stick....that will be a bit of fun... as option 3.... That is Zeee Plan before Zeee Germans get here....(line from a movie) Cheers Chris Enjoy.....  Quote:

Re: Drooze
I was driving when the engine let go....
At least we broke it on the track and not on the dyno... But if anyone needs instructions, I can probably show you how to take a race car and turn it into a paperweight in 3 feet of track. It was more than a little disappointing, but as many said to me today, and has been said here too.... it is just an engine, and next time it will be better. But meeting a lot of the guys from classracer and the other racers her was a great experience... I am now more determined than every to get this car back on the track again.... And as far as the comment about toyota tuners doing our car, well I can only say that our problems have not been due to anything fuel/spark related, and these guys are too good at what they do to even look elsewhere...They have had a hand in cars that win everywhere they go, including road race, land speed records and more... Jerry and his crew have been super. And eventually we will get this car sorted out and everyone will see what a megasquirt coupled to a new hemi can really do. Tomorrow is another day, and as long as we have tomorrows, we will keep at it. Thanks for all of the encouragement!

Honestly, the datalogs should tell you exactly what's happening, if they don't, something is seriously wrong. Last edited by boostedf22c; 03-06-2010 at 08:13 PM. |
