I heard there is trouble at the track tonite...................

stryfe · 03-28-2008, 09:43 PM

results?

Zero Doom · 03-28-2008, 11:14 PM

Uh, dunno if Jrod ran his or not, we left right as he got back from 'tuning' his car. Seems he was doing that most of the night. We didn't even get there till around 8.30ish cause google maps was off by a lot, and all of us were out by 11.30. Wasn't that great imo, the trip and hanging out with Zach and Adam was better then standing in the cold and watching the few drag cars we watched run.

sh1znack · 03-29-2008, 02:11 AM

Not sure if he ran it. As I was leaving he was just driving back in and he said that he wasn't able to boost above 14psi. Probably a wastegate problem. We'll see. Wish there was a larger turnout tonight =\.

jrod · 03-29-2008, 07:03 AM

First off i want to thank everyone for coming out. And want to apologize for not being around for most the night. The car had so many bugs to work out i was not aware of. It was really good meeting you new guys. Our meets usally dont go down like this. It was just that Keith was down trying to tune and we could not get it past 14psi..... Really dont know why either. Like i said i feel like an a$$ hole for last night and hope you guys come out again. And you guys had some Damn nice rides..

I didnt see you guys at the Track at all last night.
granted I was there when it opened and left at 8:00.

I should have never went down in the first place though.. I mustve fouled my plugs tuning the day before and I didnt tighten the meth injection connection enough because I had a leaked and stuttered down the track and wouldnt go past 14psi, had to let off halfway down both times. oh well

rbaney · 03-29-2008, 07:54 AM

Yeah I saw you go down the track and wonder what the heck was going on with that first time. I tryed to find ya but I missed ya. I left at 1030 thinking Jrod wouldn't get the chance to rn due to the huge backlog. It was nice seeing some of ya and maye the next time I will have the supercharger on, we will see.

stryfe · 03-29-2008, 09:03 AM

welcome to thunder valley, the heart-breaker hehe

the boost thing is interesting. did you unhook the wastegates to see if they are just opening? i'm not sure what springs you are using, but i know rob beck recommends giving the arms a few turns to tighten them up

jrod · 03-29-2008, 09:12 AM

ha we tried everything. We are going to swap the gates this week. Do you still have the new coil, if so how much?

Zero Doom · 03-29-2008, 09:22 AM

Yea, I think next time all you guys should come up here... we had a lower turn out at the beginning of the month, but Shannon at least got to run. Would have had more I am sure if they hadn't had other stuff goin on.
