Default 5/14 Aftermath (56k unfriendly) lota pics!

Well, it was a good and bad day I guess. I hit my goal, mid 12's (12.7 @ 111.5mph) with a 1.9 60ft time. I was very pleased with that, but I did end up cracking a sleeve at the track. 13-14psi was the amount of boost I was running. Its been awhile since I have blown a motor, so it was kind of a shock, I was hoping it was a head gasket, but with the ammount of water that was coming out of the head/exhaust, I knew it was bad.

Here are a few pics.



Leia's new RSX Type S (1300k miles!) she let me put a HMT sticker on.



Matt, Dustin, Dave & Beau looking at (daves car)



Trailered it down, because I knew I was going to break something



Dustin bumping up the timing a few degrees, after he made his 14.0 1/4 mile pass (stock D16a6 running 12psi)



Eddie, a 300zx I did some mods too, ran 12.9 @ 111, he was pissed



Maegan + Leia in the RSX, Best time was a 15.2 (bone stock rsx) avg 15.5 14 runs total



Dustin, and some chick he brang along with, my bet is that he didnt get laid, since hes in the chat room right now :P (shitty pic)



Dave ------- his car, after running several shitty runs. (on street tires) but I think he hit a 13.3? or 13.5? The funny part was Dave's little brother, (the guy who dressed up in a dress and offroaded the RV) was there, and raced his 4.0l automatic XJ Jeep..... and guess who won the ------- Import Invasion at PR? lol oh yes, Dave's little brother, pulling consistant 17.0 sec passes, ****** got a trophy and a gift certificate!



Pic of my car in the staging lanes... (thats not me, lol)



My first race, I raced leia! hah, it was bad, the slicks needed to get baked in real good, and they were not hooking up, I ran a 14.0 on my first run.. Kinda scared me, leia was catching up! ha!



Holly's 92 d16z6 hatch best run 15.7



Made about 6 runs, low 13's few 12 passes. 12.9/12.7 had good RT's for the day.. high .500's a .502 and .501



Dustin and Dave going at it..



Another quick Crx out there, Built Y8 w/ drag g3 kit. ran 12.5 w/ 18psi (very good looking crx!)





Local race group (Intec Racing) showed off there crx race car, built GSR, blah blah.. pretty neat ran a best of 10.2 @ 135



very clean B16a 91 crx si, with a JDM front clip..



when the sleeve cracked, it filled the cooling system up with mass pressure, and blew a few coolant lines off.



Nollan, another guy I race with... Sentra SER w/ SR20DET swap, he ran a 12.9 last year, but best today was low-mid 13's



a yes the shitty pics, we got home and me and beau took the head off to see what happend.. ouch!



another sleeve shot..

So whats next? built ls/vtec sleeved?..... nah.. I'm thinking B20/Vtec, when this ---- happens I always make it better than it was before. Looks like I will be rolling around a 84 ford econoline for a bit

If I would have had a block guard it still would have broke, and it would have had overheating problems, block guards are junk... proven fact, unless you weld them in, redeck the block, and rehone the cylinders.

I thought you guys were messing around with the idea of filling the block? You guys didnt have the block posted or filled?

Sucks your sleeve took a dump man. Ofcourse, no one can accuse you of not 'taking off the skirt' when it comes to turning up the boost.

The white CRX w/JDM front is my friend Eric. Hes a big gaping -----, and never posts on here... :P
VERY clean and tight car BTW.
Those pimp Kelly Charger tires are holding you back.
