kc8oye Posted November 11, 2010 Posted November 11, 2010 ian.. i've known a few guys to drive home in the rain on slicks.. VERY VERY SLOWLY!! yeah it is a pain driving to the track changing to slicks.. BUT.. one I can't afford a truck and trailer.. but 2.. at least at my old local track in michigan it got me a lot of respect for trusting my car enough to do that a lot of the guys snickering at my car stopped snickering after I pulled off a 14.234 run and they found out I drove it to the track :> Quote
502ci Posted November 11, 2010 Posted November 11, 2010 a lot of the guys snickering at my car stopped snickering after I pulled off a 14.234 run and they found out I drove it to the track :> In the past I have pulled off a high 11 second run, drove to the booth grabbing my timeslip, drove straight to the street, and drove home...

kc8oye Posted November 12, 2010 Posted November 12, 2010 In the past I have pulled off a high 11 second run, drove to the booth grabbing my timeslip, drove straight to the street, and drove home... SWEEET! most of the guys were snickering cuz they were judging my car by it's paintjob.. then were shocked that it could hold it's own. an even more shocked that i was doing 14's with such a mild smallblock (they key is in the gearing!)

Andy's Auto Posted November 12, 2010 Posted November 12, 2010 guess I am Justin..fallout form the TC site and all those guys who make it sound like it's a sin to trailer your car to the track.....like it's a lessor car or something... OMG, you trailer it? Davey, the TC guys are just a different breed I think. Hell, I am 100% street legal but think Towmater is just a better way of doing things. Davey, you built one of the baddest Shovels around. I know, it sucks that you didnt blow $40,000 on a 632 Sonny Leonard big block that runs 7's on a five inch tire with ac and 4, count them 4 DVD screens. Davey, you are too old and too wise to be reading into the anal yahoos that be. Toughen up soldier. And oh yeah, I aint gonna stop until I get my 10.0 on engine. Your in my sights wise one.

Andy's Auto Posted November 12, 2010 Posted November 12, 2010 Whoa, that was certainly quote of the month material, and I would have banned me for it. But, can't delete it. So on goes the ramblings. Quote
CrazyDavey Posted November 12, 2010 Posted November 12, 2010 I'll toughen up General, please don't slap me again. It will never have any DVD screens but the clock and cigarette lighter still work. You're gonna run 10.0 huh...have I told you about my new 548?? Quote
Winston Wolf Posted November 12, 2010 Posted November 12, 2010 I know, it sucks that you didnt blow $40,000 on a 632 Sonny Leonard big block that runs 7's on a five inch tire with ac and 4, count them 4 DVD screens. Davey, you are too old Ha, I checked and you can get 700 hp for less than 19k. I did order a new engine though.....so your both gonna be fighting for second place.... NEW ENGINE Quote
Winston Wolf Posted November 12, 2010 Posted November 12, 2010 and Davey, if you think TC is bad, spend a few days on speedtalk.com The goal there is to make grown men cry, half the time. Quote
CrazyDavey Posted November 12, 2010 Posted November 12, 2010 no thanks, not even Yellowbullet, I'll stay in the minors.....Maybe we can just buy the valve covers for one of those motors.... Quote

You're gonna run 10.0 huh...have I told you about my new 548?? Nope, tell me more. There is still more in that 502 you know? But as dead on as it is I can see where 10.27's look fantastic. Most small tire 10 second cars seem to float around a few tenths. You seem to float a couple of hundreds. But if I get even a 10.80 out of Bu tonight, I plan in hitting her with a 150 shot, which if it holds is easily a 10.0 And I am the guy willing to spray a priceless set of 074 dated 4/68 Winters cast bad boys.

wallaby Posted November 12, 2010 Posted November 12, 2010 Bummer...no provision for a mechanical fuel pump. Lets face it: it's going to look complicated once you get the power steering an AC mounted. Quote
