That's pretty much my first thoughts when I went over there. haha.

 

[Lee's05GT]

Hahaha. They want SD to tell them how it could be possible.

And were off!

The mod they are all missing is the cams. They seem to be very closed minded over there at that site.

I don't feel like making a username just to argue.... lol.. SD let em have it for us xD

Are the threads still working?

Hey guys, it would have made a HUGE difference, at least to me, to know that he had a cam swap in it too. Based on what was listed, i'm going back to my "i don't know anything about drag racing, but i don't think it's possible" stance!

Glad TS is entertaining you fellas though!

I don't believe he had the cams when he ran that number.

 

[jmn444]

ooooops.... just informed the cams came later...

what are you running in the 1/4 now Terry?

 

[jmn444]

joel, it seems INSANE to me that you've got a blower and a little shot of nitrous and only .8 faster... (yes, i know that "only" isn't the best word, and that it's fucking fast!)

 

[US-1]

How floored were you when I ran 10.80's on 8 psi?

 

[jmn444]

It had me sold on twins, that's for sure... looking like the whipple is in my future though at this point.

I give credit where credit is due and have done so here and there. TS does have some guys that are not too technically savy as does this site. That's why we all post and ask questions. There are some guys over there that know their shit too though(just as here). You'd be surprised who watches what forums.

Ya know why don't we just have a good old fashion forum war race. That's really the only way to settle this. Run what a brung, choose your battle, single elimination. That oughta take care of all the BS.

First, my name is Joe, not Joel.

And that may seem insane to you, but not to me. There are too many variables involved here. A few that come to mind for this particular example are:

1. Weight - I'd bet my car is heavier.
2. Driver experience - Terry has much more experience than I do at the dragstrip.
3. Manual vs. Automatic - I have to shift; his is done automatically

Lol

If you realy want to flip there lids! Tell them I ran a 12.2@110
with very similar mods!! And I will gladly prove it if they
want to race.

That's a really bad idea.

That's a really bad idea.

I like bad

I haven't been back since then. I am pretty sure I had the cams in. If not listed at drag times its my mistake. well if you want to give the guys at TS something to whine about, I ran a 12.721 at Ennis before I had cams and ran that on 275/40 street tires.......lol.

I have had nothing but trans problems for the last few months, am putting coins together for a level ten rebuild kit and have the old tranny rebuilt using that kit.

My p/b at the 1/8 mile with the cams and a 3k converter was a 7.778, don't know how that works in 1/4 mile but I am sure it will be better than 12.50.

Well I was able to get TS guys panties in a wad anyway
