Return to the Dark Side

After the participation of the Miami 1 mile run (178.7 MPH @ 5 psi of boost due to a broken exhaust pipe) I got the bug again to try our lady luck at the 1/4 mile.

The last event that we participated was back on 2004 Event that we won with a 10.76 now 5 years later we are going to attempt to break that record, the stage is set for this weekend race at our local Palm Beach Motor sports, track that recently went under Major surgery and now has one of the best surfaces of any track.

The car has more power now, new header design, intercooler design courtesy of Bello Power and Billet Design in addition we installed the new Toyo TQ Drag Radials and I'm swearing by them, the car is running flawless and feels strong.

Weather will be in the 60s on Sunday, today we will attempt a pass to see where we at and hopefully we can qualify in our class against the Skylines,Lexus and the mighty Supras.

The goal is to go faster than 10.76, anything after that is a bonus,

I will try to up date during the weekend and I hope that I don't embarrass myself once more :D

good luck Juan, hope the rain stays away. Might bring mine out tonight, is it open T&T or just for the racers?

Good luck!! Will you be data logging your runs? VBox or AX22? Would LOVE to see your 60-130 time Juan, please please please :)

Is Bello running tonight? Times for his car would be a real treat too!!

I will try but I have the 0- 1 mile :D

Juan, if you have a good run where your car is doing anything between 60-130, or anything from below that speed to above it i would REALLY like to have a look, 0-300kph would be marvelous :)
Please email me the file if you have it jon@kigi.co.uk

COOL, i'll be there...

Good luck Juan!! So good to see you're still going for it!!

:rolleyes: and the misery starts again........................... :(:(:(:(

Launch control is acting up so I had to get her out of the hole the old fashion way test and tune pass 11.80@132 MPH after that we were done due to the rain, will see what happen tomorrow :rolleyes:

damn, it rained? i got stuck here at the shop till 8:30pm and the weather looked bad. then i saw the humidity wa 94%...... it was raining even before it rained.

Damn, and I bet it was, what?.... 70? 75?

Brian - what do you think of all that warm rain that kept them in?

At least its not supposed to hard freeze our recently deposited rain here tonight....

and........................ a............... broken differential ended my story

Sorry to hear that Juan!

Awww dude that blows! Sorry on the diff luck, but i'm sure you'll get it next time out!

What diff will you use this time? Sorry for your troubles, we all have them....

I will install a OEM Porsche motor sports and then a OS
