HEY .. don't strech the truth funcoolz. It was very close, you pulled him almost a car in third gear, he pulled about two in forth. Looks like that restrictor plate did make a big difference. Since you both won a race ... I think you need to do some low speed rolls before you can decide on the true winner.

Congrats Vinny ... Hes a happy camper. Now buy Americans 8" Crank pulley !

Damn say it ain't so... I was wondering how long it would take the universe to return to normal.

On a serious note you pushed maggie way beyond what I thought you could.

Remember you still have turbo smasher/crusher to your title.

Have fun and that's all that counts...

Even the little 2.3 liter whipple would be better than the MP112. That's what I am thinking of to replace mine with this winter. But since Funcool is running over 400 inches, then the 3.3 might be a better choice for him. Fix him up RJW.
OR Funcool, wait for the TVS to come out on the shelf. Or stick to 1/8 mile racing. It's going to be hard to beat a Novi or TT in top speed. High gear at the last 1000-2000 rpm is where they shine. Where the Maggie is the opposite.
Next time you guys should do a run both running the spray. I would be very interested in the results. Especially if it was the same amount of spray.

Maybe we used to do street racing a little differently here, but if you're losing and you have spray, why wouldn't you spray?

I sure as hell would!

Run what ya brung!

Hey RJW, how long before you make a 3.3 available to Funcool?

He needs your help. Too many 700+rwhp cars on the prowl around here.

And congrats to Vinnie! Alway's told you just need to get it set up right.

Funcool is a man of honor. He wanted a fair race with Vince. The first race he won, the second vince showed the MPH. I think that funcool will have him down low ... I am sure we will see some more battles before the season is over.

Guys ... Funcool's car pulls damn hard. I don't think he would change his combo for anything. Keep in mind he has a 200 shot on top of the maggie to smash those who give lip service.
