Default SoCal Drag Meet Results

Results?

Well, I got home at 2am.
The tow-truck almost ran out of gas after 75 miles.
My block has holes in both sides.
The wife was not so happy.
Thanks everyone for helping out. I'm gonna go get the timeslips and post them. Even though they suck.
Whoever had a camera, post the pics. And everyone post their times.

That's strange. The last time I used a tow truck in CAlifornia the guy was talking like he wasn't going to have enough gas to make it.

Do I see 5 lugs on the front of that Civic?

I had a pretty good night. 14.1 @ 100 for the first two runs on wack *** street tires. Third run I put Renr's nitto 555r's on and ran a 13.86 @ 100.
After that run I went to the store and up'd the boost controller. lowered tire pressure and the car was fucken wild on the way back. Pulled up to the line, fucked up the launch and then blew a charge pipe. (At least I had a good excuse after that launch) The car was pulling harder than ever at this point.
It was getting toward the end of the night, so the timeslip booth said to go ahead and get back in the staging lanes. Me and Renr fixed the charge pipe issue while in line and it was on. Sitting 3 cars behind the water box Mike (Whiterice) pulls up to the line, launches, hits 20 psi and blows the ---- out of his block. ---- all over the track. The cleanup took longer than we had time to race, so they turned everyone around to go home. An overall good meet except for Mike completely destroying the motor (front and back)
The 31st I'm going back hoping to tag that 12 second mark.

yes....he blew up right before me and Stevemode....it was gonne be the last run and everyone was pissed! i was like man i hope i find out what moron blew up! then i find it was mike, im like oh ----... needless to say i changed my attitude about the whole thing. but it was all good. we all had a kick *** time. The 4door ran its best time of 16.2 lol ( non boost motor ) and i had fun. I didnt pass tech the first time cause the bitch *** "mayate" was being a turd. he said that my battery box wasnt NHRA approved and that i would be able to race. so i then go to the end of the line and get inspected by this cool *** white dude! fucken ay, he was cool *** ---- and didnt give nay of the HMT members anyshit! anyway im sure the other guys will tell you how it all went down.

p.s.

it was definately a nice meet. it was good to see some of the new faces of the so cal gang. at least two of the car where in the 13's(steve and murdoc) the other three in the 15's(--------, whiterice and bambi) julio in the sixteens and my dumb *** in low 17's all day due to some serious traction problems, the nittos just werent cutting it :P . that was lovely. i know steve couldve pulled better numbers but he luanches like a noob that lil hf was ripping up the track and beat the ---- outta a hemi truck even with the bad a launch.

mike i hope you get that car runing soon so we can blow up another one. let us know when u do the install
