Lightbulb E-town this weekend

Well, the truck is finally done. We got the new motor fired up last night at about 10pm, and all morning the custom exhaust was being done to mate with the long tubes. Unfortuately the complications have pushed our schedule back, so everything is happening later than expected. We will be in NJ tonight, but we won't be able to make the Friday Night test and tune . So for eveyone who's going, we'll see you guys in the morning .

Lets see some numbers, home boy. I expect to see a quicker motor only run, and then some LOW 11's on the funny gas. :o If not I will just half to come up there and show you how.
GOOD Luck and bring it home safe.

This is how you break in a motor.........
Build it, drive it to the track, race it, drive it home, broke in!

Iam working tomorrow 10 hrs, getting off at 5:30 and it looks like there might be a sunday involved also. Hard to turn down double time. Depends on how I feel after work, on whether I'll come down to e-town

Hey everyone!!!


Well, I am at JDM STILL!!!!!! And today was another record day, but not for me!!!!

I seen Sal's run of a 11.63 on the new engine and 150 shot of NOS!!! Congrads Sal!!!

Jim(JDM), ran a all new record setting run with a 11.83@109. oh....and no nitrous either!!!!

I was stuck in the 13.0s all day, that I think is due to converter problems because I couldn't pull off a 60' lower than a 1.95

I will fill everyone in tomorrow on any new runs!!!


oh, and one more I forgot about.....HDMLNIUM ran a 12.05@112 on 22"!!!!!! Amazing

Thanks Kyle,
MLNIUM ran a new best of 12.053 on the 22's, Hoping for the magic 11's tomorrow. Thanks to Jim and Shaun for getting the truck to run as good as it has so far. 11's will be here this season one way or the other.
Don C ran his new personel best of 12.78, way to go......

Probie, went all the way to the finals and took it all in the truck class, $200.00 bucks and two nice trophies. He also was running in the 12's.

Bill
