Edgewater 4/13/07 ... Is Anyone Heading Down?

[331TwistedWedge]

Since i havent made a pass yet this year, i think im heading down to E2O ... 55 & Sunny ... Is anyone heading down?

[Maximus]

NO!! :mad:

[bobtsgt]

I wish :(

[Black Hole]

Shitty ass track prep? No thanks....

I'm shooting for UMTR next week though! :D

[67Terror]

[5.0calypso93lx]

Got new motor mounts in the beater last night, i'll be there embarassing myself again....

you could not have said it better ... i blew tires off on a 4000 rpm launch, feathering the car ... still trapped 117 from a 2nd gear roll ... test n tune at E2O sucks ... i wish everyone would stop going (on fridays), so they would get their shit together ...

Saw and met Calypso there. Good guy woot.

Too many damn people there though.

Well, it was nice to meet you 331twistedwedge....
Nice car!

I ended up having some decent runs believe it or not...
(I'm not a big edgewater fan...)
I was stunned but it was the first time I've ran the coupe
on slicks and skinnies....

I usually have problems at E20 but last night was a different story...
Nothing too special with my set-up... 99' junkyard p-motor... 5.0 camshaft,
stock rockers, stock springs, Canton pan, gears, longtubes, power pipe, speedbrain eec....

My best pass was a 12.407 @ 108.2mph... (1.66 short time...)
I'm ready for UMTR to see a stellar 60'...... :cool2:

[PaulFiveOh]

Booooooooooo!

I was on street tires and had to shut down 3 of my 5 runs after my 3 to 4 shift sent me sideways.... Booo on you!

Best trap was a 105 but would have been much faster if I could of hooked up earlier down the track.

[12seclx]

A wise man once said...

"Friends don't let friends go to E-water without slicks."

Ha Ha....

but yeah, that track is horrible... I maybe have 265 hp to the tires
and I tried to launch around 5,600 and the 60' went away vs. the 5,400
launch... :mad:

[PaulFiveOh]

are you kidding me.....

12.4 w/ 265 hp.......

What the hell! I'd guess Im making at least 320............I need tires so bad now

[12seclx]

maybe 275hp (on a good day).. :lol:

I hope the weather is better next sat for the umtr.

My shit is up and running again.

nice meeting you to ... you have seen the last of me running at E2O on fridays ... i will go and watch others spin out ... i had one run, when i launched at 5500 ~ i didnt move an inch, i stayed in place ... that place is amazing ... my first run i rolled it out at 3500-4000 riding the clutch and spun hard, with et streets (27x10.5x15) ... that place can hug my root ... i will run the UMTR's and thats it ... i will drive all the way to kilkare to test and tune :mad: ...

(12seclx) you had some killer times for what you have done to your car ... :bigthumb ~ you beat one of my short times by a half a second (2.15) ... lol ...

[Jeff88coupe]

Very nice runs 12seclx....I use to run a stock shortblock/ported gt40p head/mild custom cam combo that went a best of 12.19 at 110. That combo made 298rwhp/320rwtq...so your probably making ~280rwhp..very nice with stock stuff.

[Timido]

If your car can work at edgwater or tristate on any test night it can work anywhere.

[12seclx]

Thanks for the comments everyone...
I just hope it wasn't friday the 13th luck or anything...
:lol:

I still need to get a line lock on the car....
I'd like to be competitive at these UMTR races....
I need more seat time... this was my second time to
the track with the combo and first time with the slicks
and skinnies.... ;)

[89coupe]

:rolleyes: more seat time.... everyone needs to watch out at the umtr your a shifting fool....

[12seclx]

Thanks 89coupe...

Does anybody know if there was a photographer there Friday night?
:cool2:

I would love to see some pics of the car leaving....
