That's still quite good for a 4-banger[:-], a lot faster than my 5.7L V8.
For some reason there were a lot of break-downs at Gateway last night as well, including me.I managed to coax it onto the return road before pulling over though, so I didn't hold up the proceedings at all. But I did come home on a flatbed. Serpentine belt snapped.[:@] I got my best trap of the night (109.53) on that run.

Good news it was only a belt! The Honda's were breaking axles. The one run I got in was against a super slow Honda that broke both axles on his launch. First time I've ever heard of both axles breaking.

Nah ha ha... it's one of those things where once you resign to selling it, you pretty much just check it out in your head. I don't miss it much at all
So what's in the works now? You've got to have a new toy to play with.
Eventually! Do a search for my STi update thread and it will fill you in on my future plans =)

Ya, atco sucked at the end of the nite. But i got 6 runs in (i was there at 430 I dont have my slip on me but my best time was something like this

rt: -0.43
60f-2.19x
1/4-13.80@101mph.

Which beats my best of 14.2
Im happy w/ my 13.8 but i can feel this car can do better, im guessing 13.6ish, thats my next goal.

It was really nice meeting you blue beast, that is a bad *** srt u got there and its even badder *** that you have a wife that tapes ur *** in the freezing cold! lol Any time you head to atco, let me know.

BlueBeast...first i am sure you'll get back in the 11s next time, but I have to say getting a 1.7xxfor your 60ft with a fwd monster like that is damned impressive! A buddy of mine with a 400 fwhp SRT4 is a great driver and barely breaks 2 secs occassionally. Hegenerally runs around 12.2 or so @ 121, but he is also out here at 3000 ft above sea-level.

Good meeting you to! Congrats on the new best time. As far as the wife goes I'm sure i'll pay for her having to set out in the cool SOON![sm=crossbonesgif.gif]
