    RACING Fastest Drag race Forum cars!

    Boom! Take that! It's car #702... not that it matters much. 88*F day, 4500ft DA, zero track prep, short shifted 1-2 and 2-3. 11psi dropping to 9psi... 185*F IATs pulling much timing and pig rich.

    Nitrous bottle failure/explosion

    Probably heated it with a propane torch too. Because that's what aluminum likes.

    BUILD THREAD Tomeal's Elky Build

    Yes, it needs an o-ring. And pretty much any container will work.

    Getting the F' Outta Dodge.

    I'd rather take my chances with tornados than any of the dangers of living in a dense urban nightmare.

    Same here, but not in the city.

    Getting the F' Outta Dodge.

    This was about an hour North West of us. After one about a week ago East of here.

    MONTE CARLO "COPO" Monte Carlo SS - Turbosaurus Build (Swinging Dick Racing's c*ck got bent... she bounced a little too high & hard, & came down awkwardly)

    Well that started out well. Went poorly. Got worse. Improved. Got bad. Solved itself. And still was pretty sketchy. Pics now. --- EDIT --- Put on your helmets boys its going to be a long war story... ---EDIT--- I took a bunch of time this week getting this thing ready for a few test hits. I...

    MONTE CARLO "COPO" Monte Carlo SS - Turbosaurus Build (Swinging Dick Racing's c*ck got bent... she bounced a little too high & hard, & came down awkwardly)

    I am not ignoring you. I am just swamped jumping from task to task... this is just low on the list. Quick answer, hardly empirical: But, after heat soaking while I was tuning the VE table it is showing 115-120*F cruising and 120-127*F on a short boosted run to 11 psi. I hope to have better...

    Re-test fitting the drag radials. Bit tight. Time to solve for X. Also, not all 325s are created equal. The early M&H Racemasters ran a bit narrow for their listed size. They got better in the second release.

    MONTE CARLO "COPO" Monte Carlo SS - Turbosaurus Build (Swinging Dick Racing's c*ck got bent... she bounced a little too high & hard, & came down awkwardly)

    Too many f*cking projects eating both my time and money. I just finished coaching baseball for the year so I should have more capacity. Plus, getting this car back together was a huge priority. It's done-ish now... so I can play with a clear conscience. I just took it for a boot after...

    Also, I really need better brakes and fast.

    Yes, much... and it is far far far scarier to drive. I love it.

    I appreciate it. Even the ball busting. ;)

    Windshield Molding Clips

    Your choices are clear: crusty old plastic that fix when it doesn't turn into dust, new plastic that doesn't fit, or metal that works but might rust. Or glue. You could just glue them on.

    Put the hose to the car today. Ran a clay mitt across the whole thing to remove the over spray and other contaminants. Slightly less sh*te. This afternoon I got around to popping most of the interior back in. Nothing special, but that rear seat back gently modified hides the tubs well...
