What a BS day!!! The drag strip is 64 miles away. Got there at noon. I'm the next car in line and they stop me and let the drag cars go race. A drag car blows it's windshield off and it shatters half way down the track. That took an hour to clean up. Then maybe 3 or 4 races after the restart, a drag Corvette loses it midway down the track, almost saves it, slams into the left wall and then skids across and slams into the right wall. At 2, test and tune was over and that was when the accident happened. I went, got my refund, and left. So pissed!!!

that sucks!

That sucks man...
 
At least you don't have to worry about rain every damn time like over here:mad:

Its either it completely rained out and track is closed. You get there early pay for admission and it rains before it starts. You get there and about to line up or waiting to go and it rains. You get one pass, it rains. The list goes on and on.


It went on like this for over 2 months. So to track what each mod does to the car time wise is skewed as i've modded more each time and never got to see what a single mod has done for me.


I'm interested to see what your Single turbo puts down. GL and hopefully the weather holds up for you next time:tup:

I just got a new roommate today...+$$$:tup: Let me fix my PS leak, my exhaust, add my coils and radiator, and I'll come down for a tune and 1/4 mile run :)

So it might be awhile. :(

I was going to fix the PS leak, fix the exhaust, and put in the radiator today, but my exhaust components didn't come in yet. Everything can be done in a day, minus the tune of course...because that will happen when I drive 4hrs away.
