Have to work all day tomorrow...
Well, look at the bright side. You don't have to worry about me beating you tomorrow...

Well, ok. Maybe you weren't so worried about me beating you. How about...the money you earn working this Saturday will help buy some good "STRONG" axles....?
I wish, I owe way too much money for schooling, and well mainly school.

Yeah, I made to Tasca. Great weather, and a really good turn-out. Man, didn't realize Ford made that many Mustangs...There sure were a lot of them.

As expected, I got punched out in the 1st round of eliminations in ET/NB. Actually, I punched myself out. I went and red lighted with a .410 on a .500 tree...DOH!!! [:@] Lost the race in the 1st 6 inches...

BUT!!!!! The really good news is that on my 2nd time trial run, I nailed a new personal best with a run of 14.031@97.83 mph. Remember, this is a bone stock motor ('cept for pullies) with over 90,000 miles on it.

So yeah, I came home happy.

thats great. so close to the 13's.

thats the reason i wanted to go cuz they prep the track for better running conditions.

i shoulda went i usually nail a perfect tree or come close. the worse i hit the other night was a .535 although i still prolly woulda had trouble knocking some cars out.

Good for you. Sorry to hear you lost so quickly. I was there from 1-5. Great time, me and Matt went. Saw NH's car and then saw 99saleen's in the show portion. Looked great by the way. Then eventually met up with Jeremy(Jmac) and his Gf. Took a bunch of pics i will post in the next couple posts. Also good job DILO with the new times.... why do you need a new battery ? what did you add on? JPC no problem, they came out wicked. And i liked the shots with our cars together. We need to make a picture of Us Mustangforums.com guys from the NorthEast section before the season is up. Anywhoo..... let the pics begin!!!

I was there today, but only say NH race. I didn't see casper or anybody else. I was in the stands most the time, except at the car show for the awards. NH what number was on your car? I saw you race once cause they announced your name but I got a pic of a car not sure if it is you.

i added a fan switch and my battery died with it on . so i am thinking an optima to hold long times of the switch being on as well as my bottle warmer. the battery is about 5 years old almost so i think its time for a new one anyways. but yeah i appreciate what JPC did and i agree we should get a big gathering one night and take a nice pic. i'll most likely be going up this wednesday and friday since i have this week off from work.


oh and thanks about the times. i still think i can hit a 12.4-12.5 on this set-up and til then i will only be satisfied but not happy lol. but since the seasons coming to an abrupt i am going to get a stall converter and work on the suspension over the winter months. maybe even some stage 2 cams

Yeah Stage 2 cams would be a great addition to the car. Make sure you get some custom grinds for youre car because of the nitrous. I think if we let everyone know what day would be best for the group of us, i think we can make it happen. I can ocme Wed, or Fri. Doesnt matter. I guess it all depends on the weather as well.... Sorry i forgot the pics last post. lol Here they are..... Enjoy!
