I kinda felt like my car was at its limit and i had the blitz BOV on 100% atm. That supposably hurts performance right? So next
week it will be on 100% reciculating. Steven do you get any
knocking from your rear diff while your launching pretty???

I've officially hung up the spurs on my horse and have sworn off racin' my car down the 1/4. I'm an old enough veteran to know that if you race your car on a regular basis it's not IF something will break, but WHEN - and I'm too poor to fix the car if ANYTHING breaks.

Since my drag racing days are over - I am going to live vicariously through your posts/exploits.
What ?

As said by RussWhat good is a car if you can't race it ?

I run 100% atm, I also run a short ram intake, both of which supposedly hurt performance *shrugs* and no I don't get diff thump on launch but do get it on the 1/2 shift and sometimes the 2/3 shift...BTW congrats on the 13.8

Atmo BOV=periods of richness
CAI (I'm not sure about a shortram)=leanness

I'm not a smart man, but...

I attribute putting Wes' TXS type H BOV as the reason I cured my ASL (after-shift leanness).

What good is a car you drag raced until it broke and you can't drive it to work or afford to fix it?

I'd be out there 3 times a week again if I was rich.

Subies, REPRESENT!
I hope I can live up to the expectations, but I think I drew too much attention.

If I fail, I'll definetly be disappointed and also very embarassed.

When is the tracks the least busiest? I'm going to try to sneak a quick pass before it gets busy.
