| Livin' Like A Refugee | Good Time @ Cecil Tonight Had a good time hanging out tonight guys. Matt: Congrats on the new best tonight witht the GN. I'll let you share the details, but I would have given anything to have along for the ride on that best pass. Mike: Good job running the 300ZX tonight. Pretty impressive for a car designed to handle. A 12.8@110 isnt bad at all. Wayne: That Firebird is flat out FAST. I couldnt beleive how fast that car is. How bad was the vibration during the runs? When I was in it at the shop, it shook the whole car. That thing has alot more left in it. Seems to hook good, but the 60's could be a little better; IMHO. Larry: Pretty decent night for you as well. 12.2s on the stock turbo aint bad at all. The whole "Monte" part was f*cked up . Anyway, time for a modern chip for the car. Should pick up alot with a TT chip. Sucks that you broke a stud when you swapped the slicks off. Get that fixed up in a hurry. Not a bad night at all. Great air for turbo cars, although I was freezing most of the night. ![]()

Oh and Matt had fun on our run, don't forget to include that on the details on your run in with the stock turbo'd car just messin with ya man.

| Third pass, its Me and Larry.. They were rushing the lights trying to get all the cars out and close (after a lengthy cleanup..) So I fumbled at the light a little as Larry took off. Well I thought I could catch him, blow by, and piss him off, but I just couldnt. I was reeling him in little by little, but just wasnt enough time in the quarter. He went 12.3 @ 109.3, to my 12.1 @ 112.9, but I left late and 60' footed bad so he just got there first. I didnt want to beat him up, so I let him have a head start. Glad you made it home alright, man. Fix that broken stud... ARP studs.

| Yep, it was a great night for everyone... Matt, you have a quick street car man that thing looked great going down the track.. The wifes car was quick, it was the FRIST time it was ever on a drop strip. The car was strong pulling at the top end with 12psi.. i pulled a 1.990 60'ft on that 12.8 pass, if that 60'ft was around a 1.80 at car should have pulled a 12.6 pass .. Not bad for being on 93 gas at 3500 pounds and lowered.. Now all i have to do is get the Wife to let me drive the car more offen ..

| Thanks Joe. The weather last night was perfect turbo car weather. Timeslip said 50 degrees, but it felt colder then that. Ask my g/f, and she'll tell you it was 20 degrees. ![]() Mike, I didnt think the Z had all that in it man! That sonofabiotch is quick!

| Livin' Like A Refugee | Was a good night. Real cold though. How about that SVT Lightning with NOS that melted down after going 11.76@118. All kinds of oil on the track from it. I dont wanna know how much that bill is gonna be. Matt's the new Sherriff in town. ![]() Looks like Gregg is gonna have a fight on his hands at Buick Day. ![]()

| What combo? My car is stock. In my first post were the tune details. That was locking the converter right after the shift into 3rd gear. It bogged a little when I locked it, and pulled 7* timing for an instant, then was 0.0 on the scanmaster the rest of the way down. I think I could have knocked the 60' down a little more, but the last pass was a fumble. The track went to hell anyway, from all the cars cooling down over the cleanup break, then firing and pouring condensation out their tailpipes. I was trying to launch it around 10 psi, but didnt manage. I'll try again next time. I'm pretty sure I can cut closer to a 1.60 if I try.

| Livin' Like A Refugee | How about that guy in the V6 Mustang burning ya down. I would have smacked that guy upside the head. Moron. Still a good run, but probably would have been better if that wouldnt have happened.
