OK Jay, we'll keep you in mind for the fall. That was your car at MIR, right?

Thanks all for your props. This section of the forum is a whole lot better than the other section that Bruce and I hang out. Some of those guys don't deserve a response unless Rob decides to feed them generous portions of sarcasm.

I think he hurt his motor during the 8.9x pass? Has he ran it since?

I was speaking of Fartpipe's Atomic Orange Z, and the only 8.9 pass he has made was in the 1/8 mile..

OK YOU SOB'S!!!! Keep it up! Its all fun and games till Gary,Rob,tirecraft with some good java all sit down and start drilling holes in my frame, put 1981 pinto brakes on my car, a big F1 supercharger with a huge blower cam, 4.90 gears with full drag suspension and fiberglass windows, drilled out bumpers, take out the bumper supports and a K&N filter and just smoke all of you and run way into the 10.9's!!!!!! So hah!!!

Gary I can't agree more the other section... we wont mention doesnt fair well with the performance and just doesnt seem welcomed typically. Let alone if you're doing something differently.
As for RobZ's sarcasm had me FN rolling in my chair at work when I read his replies.

Pittman, you make it up here for the MIR meet in the fall and convince Jimbo to come on out I'll let you make a pass. Hell I'll even let you take 4DRUSH's car down if you want. He has a keyless system to reduce the weight of the car, no keys, no key chains or fobs holding that guy back!!! He's crazy!

I wondered when you would come back and blast me...lol. You were nice ?? Must be getting Soft

I don't think he will let me near his car after calling him "4-door rush" a few months ago Maybe you can distract him with a "track cheese burger and fries" and I will grab a couple quick passes !!


I'm gonna keep working on Jimbo. He says is way too far for him but you never know. Hell, he jumped in his rig and came to Florida on a whim !!

Any of our forum-gang are always welcome for a Pit-Stop if you head to Florida !! We had a blast last year at the track and cooking out !

Wouldn't it be easier just to let gary or rob z make a pass to crush your 10.9 goal . Instead of ruining a perfectly good car? Just a thought. I will help either way. Jk. I guarantee if you head up for a secret atco rental the boys will get you better than your goal. Mark

Sorry 4 door, we'll remember next time.
We weren't planning on running but Gary got the itch. The rental was dominated by ricers, not sure you would have handled it well.

We need to rent a car next rental and have everyone beat on it.
