In your sister. If none, your mom
Finally made it :nice: Pretty happy. Since last time, I had a colder weather, my shiftlight in and my clutch quadrant and the car didnt go 13's even once.

Beleive it or not, my computer is broken(I'm at my grand-mother's right now) and I cant scan my slips. But believe me they're real. Here's the passes:
12.9x@108

I'll scan everything as soon as I can.

Something happened to the car on the way back home..Something is broken in the passenger valve cover. Its cracked. Headstud broke or rocker arm or pushrod. I'll take it apart tomorrow. It sucks. Had to tow the car home.

One more thing. One all the passes (I think), at least my driver wheel was off the ground to 3 inches high !! On N/A power. I'm suppose to have pictures of that and have plenty of witnesses :nice:

All this on 100% STREET FORM. Just imagine on slicks...

I got to go right now. I'm just extremely happy that I made the 12's all day. Wasnt just that one lucky run you know..
 
So still no internet today or computer. :( I got the valve cover off...I got 2 broken headstuds. My pushrods seem to be still perfect and same for my roller rockers. Propably just need a quick weld job on the valve cover and 2 studs and I'm ready to let her rip again :nice:

I forgot to mention yesterday that my rear-end is pretty much shot. I've been hearing weird noises all week long. So yesterday, I was only pretty spinning one wheel only. The driver side doesnt spin. I should of rebuild the rear-end last year when I put the gears in. Stupid me. So I was pretty much launching on one wheel only, I guess. If I get this fixed, I GUARANTEE better times on street tires. I had my Dr's at 11psi. Seem to work fairly good. You can tell if you look at the tires..One has still a good amount of thread left and the other one is almost slick. :bang:

One more thing...I might be going back to college in the end of the month. I'm 3rd on the waiting list. So if I go back, I'll propably have to sell the car. ANd I cant afford to break it "more"...so what I'm trying to say is that I removed the nitrous system today :( No 11's but I'll do my best on N/A while I have the car. I guess I'll put the kit for sale shortly.. At least my main goal is achieved.

I didnt get any pics yet form the guy. I'll propably get them tonight so if I get them, I'll post them tomorrow. :)
 
Man.. you are up and down, new parts one day, used parts the next.... sorry to hear you may have to sell ESPECIALLY with the amount of coin you've put into that car over the last 3 years in changing everything over and over....

Man.... fawk knowledge, keep the car and start a worm farm!
 
This was the pic I was hoping to see my stang in the air. Unfortunately he snapped the pic just before I went up. :( I'm waiting for another pic from that guy and one from my friend.

We got the computer fixed and I was able to scan my slips. Here are my 2 best ones (side by side).

I wasnt able to get pics of my stang off the ground. Because of that retarding mechanism in the guy's digicam. I might have one on my friend's non-digicam though.

Here's what I'm thinking..If I can lift off the ground right now, just imagine if I'd put the battery in the trunk :nice: Not sure how it weights but a good 20pds I think :shrug:
