So i'm on my way back right now. Going through Chicago. Gotta love wireless internet. Woot WOot. Saw the guys from dvdt blow a flywheel up. Thank god for scatter sheilds but to bad about the motor :( OUr shop car just couldn't do a good run. Car was running good. But tranny issues a lil bit. Oh well.

hey Donny i did not get to meet you this weekend but i did see the shop car, i was in a DVDTFab shirt with gunglasses all weekend.. hah and that was Jeff H that blew his flywheel, Mike Richen blew his VCE though his trans and into his rim and it bounced around inside the rim, al snapped a axle 1st pass today but yesterday still managed to run a 11.0@139

and i saw that your guy's car did the same thing eh? track techs kept on telling us that it was water! Hahaha

Kerry Renoe ran a 10.0@150 and could not run fastrer or he would be kicked out because he does not have his licences and Cert to go that fast, other wise he did not break ALL weekend they were very happy

Cosmo in the evo was having some ignition problems, i guess thats what you get when your runing 45 psi on a GT42 ;)

Yea we passed you guys in the freeway, that was my trailblazer with the Wi plates and al's car with the IL plates hah!

i should have some very good video of this weekend once al sends it to me, i manned the camera all weekend was great, kicked ass video taping right next to the car at the Tree

[Nick A]

i bet they are just getting home, thats like a 5 hour drive from Joliet, and i saw them at about 6:30pm

[Donny]

Hey.. Sprint phone + cable + laptop = internet in the rv baby.

[Donny]

Yea at the line we almost pulled a Mike. THe viscious broke through the tranny housing.. and im like standing there wtf.. go.. and t ere's clean up .. and im like.. wtf broke it still moves.. But we fixed it. Thank god for spare parts. One of the cars we built (silver gsx) Had exactly 500 miles on his 2.3 motor. He ran it at 15lbs and still managed a 11.9 at 118. Which isn't bad. For our runs though.. best of the day was only a 10.9 at 136 but he did pull a 11.2 at 139 lol. Hmm what else.
I dunno, ill think of more later.

[Nick A]

If i remember right, that silver GSX launched very nice!, now im at work, tired face and next burt hah
