koolrayz Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 Blew a radiator hose on the first hit at the shootout and stuffed it into the wall on the big end. The car in the other lane had a GoPro so I got a video. Also got a time slip lol 8.82@128 Track photographer shot the launch on that pass so I that that also. I dont think it is worth fixing as I needed to go from the 8.50 cage to a 25.5. Hope to have a new roller soon. I will be parting out the car later in the month. http://s212.photobucket.com/albums/cc122/koolrayz/?action=view¤t=RaysRide.mp4 http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc122/koolrayz/DSC05156.jpg http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc122/koolrayz/DSC05149.jpg http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc122/koolrayz/DSC05150.jpg http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc122/koolrayz/DSC05153.jpg http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc122/koolrayz/DSC05152.jpg http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc122/koolrayz/DSC05151.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cordell Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 Glad the guy with the GoPro was so slow, and was paying enough attention to stop. Would have really sucked to have involved another car, look forward to see what happens now. Glad you're okay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patterson Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 Safety equipment FTW. Good to see you came out in one piece Ray. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koolrayz Posted October 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 I was amazed at how well the safety equipment worked. I did not have a sore muscle in my body. I was however a little dizzy when I woke up the next day but that was from all of the tequila Tommy and Mark stuffed down my throat, damn was I wasted lol. Look for a new build thread next weekend. I have something big in the works! Teaser hint is the new car has two parachutes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokinHawk1647545499 Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 that sucks ray, sorry to hear.. glad you are ok though have you bought a roller yet? you could buy my car and sell my parts, so you could get it the roller for free for parting it out.... just thought i'd drop that into your head.

blue99fbody Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 sorry this happend to you ray especialy since u had the car since new i know that holds sentimental value but a roller will prob be the smartest way to go from here. good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linn1647545492 Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 Wow, sorry to hear about the car but I'm glad you walked away. Good to see the guy in the other lane get out of it at the 1/8th miles and not to try to make a full pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad you are ok, and a lot of the expensive parts are salvageable. You'll be flying next year I'm sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
