Looks like I will be out of this discussion for a while! After multiple 9 second passes Friday night at Edgewater, fastest being a 9.75. Had a rod come through the oil pan then it caught fire and burnt up the engine bay pretty good!

Damn ... That Sucks ...
Glad you're OK, Cars can be Rebuilt ...
Wow sorry to here that!
Man that sucks! Sorry to hear.
Sucks man i was a few cars behind you in my junk. The car was rolling out every pass before that, hated to see it! Seemed there were quite a few mustangs breaking friday. I was beating on my daily and super thankful i didnt need a trailer to get home. I did learn that foxs on street tires will not get traction no matter how easy i leave, and i can expect to break drivetrain parts soon after i find traction.
Thanks. I was actually on lower boost than I planned on throwing at it too. I had the boost controller turned all the way, but with 18 psi waste gate spring I was about 6 psi from where I wanted too be. So heavier springs and stronger motor to come!!
So whats up with the call out deal any action yet??
No action yet. I know there are a few that are willing to start it off but due to breakage and other issues, it hasn't happened yet. I think USMCPony should be getting close to calling some out and his car will make some power!
When your ready though we can try to meet up at Kilkare and you can take the #1 spot and Ill settle for #2! I just want to see some racing going on! I have some suspension work to do hopefully next week and then Ill be ready again. I need to get my 60ft down in the 1.40 range if I want to run the car to its potential.
Where is USMCPony? He needs to get back in on this!!!
With this new 10 rib kit, flip drive and cog drive. I'm basically custom making everything. They claim it takes 4 hours to install. But the fastest anyone has done it is 30 hours. And that's cause he had all the parts. I'm missing parts and basically peicing together my own kit. 9/10 of everything I read about this kit is everyone else had to do the same thing. But everyone said it is 100% worth it. I will have zero belt slip and will have instant boost with less strain on my accessories.
Im sure it will be worth it once its done. Gonna be nasty!
this should be fun
Ok racemaster Brian, I'm ready to race. Who's up? I can be at Edgewater this coming Friday night, weather permitting, and I'll run whoever to get this list started. Bring it, someone will video it, and we'll be the first two on the list. Let's do it. Or, I can do kk Thursday, again, weather permitting, but I'd rather to E2O simply because it's not as crowded.
Agreed lets get this going! My new short block is ordered and should be here in a week or so. Just a little fire restoration and drop it in! I should be ready in a month.
Im ready to get things started!!! I wont be ready to make any passes for a couple weeks. Just picked up slicks from Chad and Im getting my anti roll bar welded in.
Where is Bill (NoShot)? I know Chad393 and Kennebellcobra have a quick cars! USMCPONY should be getting close. Who else am I forgetting? Come on guys!!! Lets make this happen!
I will text chad and bill. Or you can call them too, and get this thing going. I just went all in to get a car to be able to start this, so let's get going. I can be at kk or at edgewater, either way, just let me know brian, I'm ready.
I sent Chad a text. Ill PM Bill and see if he is up for it too.
I would love to see these races
Id love to see you get your car done and join in!!!
^ditto, what's up with it now Todd?
A minor trans leak, well, maybe a little more than minor. It will be OK, Lol
I'm no match for a coyote turbo but I can run Friday at E2O.
Never know! You know your car works as it is. Mike is untested and a new combo. It would get the listed started anyways!
There ya go Mike!!! Lets try to get one done!
I'm still waiting on the two custom made tensioner pullies that they forgot to send in the first place. That's the only thing I'm waiting on besides a tune. I'm really starting to regret changing my car.
Im sure it will be well worth it when its done. Its going to nasty as hell!
If it ain't spinning, you ain't winning!
Just harassing you, like you said, putting things in place for the future of the vehicle.
Lol, you guys have WAY too much confidence in me. I didn't say what car I'd have there, just that I had a car to run and get on the list. It's mine, and that's what matters. The coyote is on hold til I get moved and situated, then it's on like donkey kong. I will meet you wherever Shannon. Let me know! Edgewater or KK?
When I was taking the first joy ride on the highway I had a trans coolent line loosened up and lost most of the fluid so I putted it home. I end up getting the line put on and filled it back up but it seems like its slipping. Maybe the clutches are fried who knows. Getting tired of this powerglide.
If all the fluid drained out and you continued to drive it, it probably burnt the clutches up.
It would have to be E20 Mike. So you going to give us a hint on what your bringing?
Whats the car Mike? I may have Bill (NoShot) interested too.
