Oh yeah I forgot to mention I broke my axle at taco bell later that night after I got home from the dragstrip. The biotch told me not to race in her parking lot so I decided to leave some rubber after I got my food, but I didn't get very far. It was in my car about 24 hours... is that a record for breaking an axle? I got a new one under warranty though the next day and installed it. :P

"And of course.. who could forget beau? and what happens everytime beau goes to the track?...LOL problems! His first run didnt look to bad other than the rev limiter was at 7500 rpms and he made a pass at 12.1 @ 120mph. So he comes back around we adjusted the rev limiter and he went back inline, does his famous clutch drop 8500rpm launch, goes about 100 ft and just coasts. Ok so he comes back around we pop the front end off and the custom front suspension beau made completely bent up, plus it launched the shifter linkage off, so we tried to bolt it back up and its off a good inch or so, the whole engine is bent about 1/2 - 1in away from the firewall. Not sure what exactly bent. More pics are coming soon on this!"


update the engine is sitting funny because the rear subframe were the rear engine mount bolts to is completly caved/buckeld in. am i going to fix it of course plans are being made for a new front x-member and a rear subframe that is completly seem welded and plated,and have 1" tubing reifourcment were the mount bolts on as for woodburn ill probly only go there with the red car unless its some huge race and i know the black car is dialed gas is too much to drive 300+ miles round trip and just jerk off at the track.
