Default SOCAL Dragmeet results **** PICS ****

Well It was a dissapointing day for --------.... I had big expectations of running consistent 13's and maybe a 12, but all i got was a gay 14.6, because my car had serious traction issues due to the shitty motor mounts, the fillings came loose and the engine would sway like a mother ******, on the burnout i got some serious wheel hop and the car started hopping sideways, then on the launch i kept spinning the tires, and due to me not ever having a short shifter till last weekend i kept thinking the car wasnt in gear, and kept missing gears. and finally it pulled good at about half the run. Then steve got a decent run too, and after that it just all went to hell because the car wasnt pulling as good as it did on the first run, well we discovered that there was a 1in gash in one of the Home-CHeapo couplers. and that made me only boost 3-4 psi, im surprised i even boosted anything... no wonder whiterice kept whooping my ***. And the slicks i planned to use... well one of them had a flat.... so i was majorly fucked.. Well next time ill have the mounts solidified, and fortified, and ill be done with my home made traction bar, and ill put an innertube on the slicks... and hopefully that clears up the traction loss...

Ok i'll stop bitching......l heres some pics...

It was a long day, but it was a good time. Thanks to ghetto D for loaning me his ride.

And don't anyone forget about that reaction time pot. Give it all to Julio for the So Cal wideband.
