    First time back at the dragstrip.

    It was a dissapointing night. I was hoping to at least break into the 13's. The only thing I manage to break was the clutch. I burnt it out. It wasn't holding for shit! It slipped in every gear. I made two passes tonight. Here's the breakdown: Pass 1: Clutch slipped from the get go...

    Tire sizing; 17x8 wheels; stagger tires or not?

    If I were to run the same tire all around I'd go with the same size all around. Especially if the rim width is the same front and rear. Most people stagger rim widths, not tires. Plus you can rotate them and your tires would last longer. BTW, where are you getting your tires from?

    Why so black? [Pics]

    You should check your plugs and read 'em. Maybe that will help you get started on your smoke issue. As far as why the oil is super black, I don't know. I once had a Honda Accord that ran like clockwork. My oil would look the same when I did oil changes. I never understood why. My plugs...

    Ewww. Oil and grime underneath nails? Sounds dirty. I hope I don't break anything tomorrow. I don't think I have enough power to do it. I just want a baseline before tweaking. I'll be sure sure to get vid of the run. It's going to be an in car vid though. Unless I get my friend to...

    Drag Radials came in today. Gotta get them mounted. It looks like I might make a pass Saturday night. Just the current set up I have on 10psi. I'll need to bring tools just incase I snap a driveshaft, or half shaft.

    BTW, there a midnight madness even going on at San Antonio Raceway this Saturday night. Gates open at 8pm and runs to 2am. I might go just to spectate, not race. It's going to be cold as hell out there.

    I really don't think he knows much about turbo cars period. According to my wife he's more about flash than fast. Most of his future upgrades don't have anything to do with the engine. Neon lights, instrument gauge glow lights, body kit and stuff like that is what he's interested in. Oh, and...

    I went to my wifes job to visit. One of her co-workers noticed my Supra. He told my wife that my car was nice and all, but too bad it was slow. He also went on to tell her that he'd like to race me. My wife warned him that it's quicker than it looks. He said that unless it's a twin turbo...

    BHG Nightmare

    I had that same dream not too long ago. I've been through it twice before. Have you experienced a BHG yet?

    Congratulations Michael. You need help moving? I'm off on weekends. What part of town are you moving to? Any idea?

    Don't be hatin' on the MLC crew. "Team Ludicrous Speed!!1!1!" Who's down? On a serious note I ordered two Nitto NT555R drag radials today. Should have them in a couple of days. I was going to order the front, but we had to leave to pick up my son early from school and take him to his...

    Yeah, I'm showing my age aren't I? :3d_frown: Back in the day I really wanted to start a car club named "Ludicrous Speed" and have a banner across the brow of the windshield. A huge logo of Lord Helmet on the back window as well. I'd see so many car clubs with names with " "X"...

    That's wide, but the profile is way too thin.

    I was wondering where you've been. Busy at work? Sorry, don't have the trim piece, but if you weren't driving in ludicrous speed your car would hold together. :) I was driving around last Sunday morning and was in your neck of the woods. I drove past to see if you were outside but you...

    Best online business for audio equipment

    I was just going to ask if Crutchfield was still around. I used to buy stuff from them before the internet was around. They used to have ads in the back of magazines. You could request a catalog and they would mail it to you. I haven't been into car audio in a long time.
