View Full Version : Guess who raced like a 14yr old girl today?
ME!
To those of you from AR that gave me races today at Mo-Kan, thanks & I wish I could've given you better.
To those of you I redlighted, I apologize.
To those of you who laughed at me...wait until I get my launches down with this new light flywheel and clutch and WATCH OUT!
;)

Your car looks good enough sitting still, I don't think anyone minds. :thumbup:
Wish I could've been there. <_<

Well dont worry man. I didnt do as good i could have. I think the car is capable of cutting a good bit of time of my e/t, but i need to practice. That was my first time ever running. But I think you have that one figured out. My reaction times were weak and i need to quite granny shifting. Scares me about being to mean to my car though at such an early age. KJY9, I think you'll do 13's or 12's after you get your new flywheel and clutch. I think everyone did a nice job :thumbup:

Thanks..you mis-understood though.
It's a brand new JWT light Flywheel and clutch just dropped in two weeks ago.
Out of 17 runs at centerville yesterday, I missed 2nd gear 7 times! :o
Old Flywheel & clutch, I never missed any gear..UGH :(
I'll get used to it. I found a nice little spot to practice in.
At any rate it was nice to see some AR tags up there ;)

post up yall's time slips. <_<
Dang it, I knew I shoulda called in sick.... Oh well, hope everyone had some fun up there seemed to be a decent day to be out. Glad to hear you finally got to see what your car would do Lazarus, did you shift like me any???? A few times isnt bad on it, mine hasnt fell out yet and I do it all the time (oops) :unsure: knock on wood
Sorry I missed you KJY9, it would have been nice to have spoken with you in person finally... Maybe next time :thumbup:
Caleb, did you at least get one good launch? Maybe we need to rent a track for a day and dedicate it to you learning that darn launch :D
Nah, I'm sure you'll get it. I ran my Street tires at 15-20PSI before I could launch good in my Mustang but the Posi helps too.
Anyone get any photos? :huh:

I didnt get a single good launch my best run which is embarrising(sp?) was 14.0 @104 with a 2.3? 60ft time. I burned up a chunk of my clutch though on that run it slipped in 1st and 2nd but finally caught in 3rd.
Yea i think I do need to rent the track to learn how to launch it
