Same goes for Terry. 9.30s now vs his 10.0s in the article. What a difference a few months makes.

anyone have the article to scan and post?

what's crazy is we really didn't make that much of a change.

my 9.99 was with a 2.75" carbonite pulley. 3850lbs, was about on E.

My 9.37 was with a 2.95" reg pulley, 3940lbs roughly

from last year, we put the boss back on the car, swapped injectors, swapped from draw to blow thru, larger tubing out of the intercooler, and e85.

the e85 is ridiculous, jon is commanding 22 degrees of timing, but letting the knock sensors do their thing. car is seeing around 24.5 degrees at the track.

I can do it. Give me about an hour. Its a lot of pages.

Thanks Paul. No rush. Whenever it is conveient.

First for Chris Cruz winning the whole thing! And being #1 at the drag strip, and Terry for being #2 at the drag strip. And the best part is, both of those ETs are already out of date! Haha.

I got to say I was disappointed with most of the other cars ETs. Those cars were throwing down big numbers on the dyno but it wasn't translating to the track at all. I think the horsepower portion should be 10% instead of 25% and the drag race portion 25% instead of 10%---because what good is the power if you can't put it down?

I completely agree and was thinking the same damned thing. I don't give a shit if you made 2000hp. If you can't get down the 1/4 in the same time a fucking turbo Colbalt can, there's something fucked up with your setup.

Surprised BBR didn't win, they certainly tried very hard to.

Just more of those ethical practices BBR has become so well known for as of late.

Have to give Terry credit for doing this.

I actually took the video in October.

Basically earlier in the day, this same thing had went on, but there was a 2nd gal sitting there with her. I caught the tail end of it. I was selling people on my car, I'm a salesman, can't help it.

All the guys were complaining about it. Later in the day, I looked over and saw it going on again. I probably watched 10-12 go in before I got the brilliant idea to start taping.

To be honest, as soon as I got the camera out, I thought the ballots would quit going in the box. To my amazement they didn't.

I've been sitting on it for 5 months, unsure what to do with it. Quite a few people knew of the video. I figured it was time to pass it around and if someone decided to make it "public" so be it.

Kris is definately not bashful! LOL

Terry - two questions

1) who is she in relation to BBR?

2) how did one get the voting ballots? were they just there for the taking?

Chris' Fiancee

Yes they were

You could pretty much walk up and write your number as many times as you wanted. I wrote my number once as I beleive everyone else did. Little kids walking by were being grabbed as well. "Kid, write # whatever it was on here" and then it would get stuffed as well. 5,6, 7 year old kids that didn't have a clue what was going on.

Fred Cook, Chris Cruz, and many others watched this practice go on.

 

[stkjock]

Got it, thanks, I was just not aware.


so... now that I know... that's fucked up

 

[69Mach1-409]

...wow

If you go to youtube to watch it, you can read Kris' description.

Jillian Gastright, fiance of Chris Jones of Blow-by-racing (BBR) stuffs the ballot box for King of the Street voting. Dishonesty at it's finest from people associated with this business. Maybe you should have brought a car that would actually make it down the track instead? Notice how she says "our employees", but then claims she isn't the owner of the car.
