and how the hell can you run 14.4x stock?
100lbs=1/10th of a second, right?
aka you would have to lose at least 600 lbs, and be one hell of a driver. what gears was it?
Lost about 300-400 lbs.
I am a hell of a driver
3.90 gears
The 3.8 is in my 89 RX7, hence the weight loss and 3.90 gears. Also, it does have headers and exhaust and somewhat of a CAI, both needed for installation into the RX7.
Is that what the black one ran? not bad.Not bad, but you would definitely have the upper hand if we raced

Even with the IRS they are not the best in the twistys. Ford had to make several compromises with the suspension geometry to allow the IRS cradle to bolt to the vintage 1978 underpinnings.

Wish I could have made it out last night, but I was just plain wore out from tracking the beater.
Anything going on there tonight?

Tinman, you and i need to race.
Thank you IPS for allowing us to congregate in your parking lot.
Yes we do. I should be out the next couple of weeks.
Heed my warning about that race !! lolShh

Before I wear out a set of valve springs heading there and back, I'm going to have to ask Greg to guarantee me at least one good race.
That shouldn't be hard for the Don King of the racing scene

I'm in the middle of building one, should be done sometime this weekend.

Who cares, you can trap 200 all I care, I am saying that I will beat everyone to the finish line, not out trap them....

Don't make me go out and buy slicks.

Care to place a wager on who has the higher trap speed?

Nice! Jim was telling us about the new paint scheme when he stopped in the shop earlier this week. I was hoping to see it soon, thanks for posting the pics.

Bring a full bottle.

So sorry to hear Mike. And you did not even get to enjoy the car at it's full potential

Well fuck, went to fire the whore up and found the temp gauge sending unit wire and crank trigger wires had got pinched between the upper spider and valley cover :doh:
I'm going to see how bad the crank trigger wires are, if they are repairable, I will be out later tonight.

Your doom is only a week away...
I'll polish my tail lights just for you.

Every car in this video is:
1. Faster than you.
Not hardly
2. Now broken, sold, or disassembled. .
Fix it, buy it back, or reassemble it. I'm tired of only having bikes willing to race me.

There is an A&W on Rt. 36/37 just west of I71, it's not a drive-in though
-
I'm in. It's time to find out if the beater is good for low 14s or not. Unless someone has a trailer I could borrow, then I might see what the SB2 RX7 can trap.

Looking for the 18" electric cooling fan that came on the Lincoln and maybe but not sure on the later Taurus and Sables. There are a few on Ebay but I would prefer to buy local.

A long time ago, in a galaxy far away, someone is getting ass raped.

I'm interested in these. You should send me a few pics. How much meat is left on the tires? Are the rims in good shape? Paint scratched or roadrash?
If you pick up the bullits, I would be interested in your current wheels.
