That did'nt happen to me yesterday but used to happen all the time down in E town to me . When ever I go there now I put a orange cone in my spot.

Silver83GT, not bad at all for your first time. I remember my first time and its is a learning experience.A little practice and you could get it in the 14's which is great for a basicly stock '83.

Well, if that car in front of your trailer was a red '03 Cobra, I guess that I am the a$$. That was my noobie mistake, and I told you I was sorry. Hopefully you didn't think I was getting cocky with you, because I felt like an a$$ about it. That WONT happen again!! Anyways, congrats on your time, and best of luck to you .

BTW, I ran a new best of 11.958@118.08MPH

Nope, you were understanding and apologetic and I appreciated that. It was the guys friend that was next to me, he had a Blue 03.... short over weight frumpy guy with an attitude.

I've been racing over 9 years now, I have a 93 fox that will run mid 8's with the new combo and this is the first event that this ever happened to me. I usually set up way in the back lot but I thought it would be easier on my wife to park closer just in case she wanted to watch TV in the truck or relax.

Nice run bro, I know what I need to do to drop my short time and ET but thats my street car, something I want to rely on......I dont want two head aches sitting in the garage, the other car is a hand full enough.

As I said in my previous post i qualified #2 in Street shootout with a 9.8. It slowed down because i switched to a serpintine blower belt . But I got the 60's down but I lost 9 mph because of belt slippage. I was on a quicker run in eliminations but lifted because opponent was way behind. But I blew up the tranny before the semi-finals

Thanks man, If it could of just lasted a couple more runs I feel I would of won. But thats racing. If winning was easy it would'nt feel as rewarding.
I guess I will just get ready for next year. Most likely adding a 'chute for some 150+ mphs and low9's possibly high 8's with the cog setup. I have been running a extremly safe tune and there is a lot more power in it.

I know that we've got a mid 12 second run in this thing as we cut 1.75 '60 foot times and we're also running 86 mph in the 1/8th.
Click to expand...

I ran 12.70 @ 105.27 with 84 mph at the 1/8th.

I had a good day. This was my second day time running with the Vortech and I bettered the previous weekend's 12.90 @ 103 with a 12.70 @ 104. I bumped the timing and ran some race gas plus the air was better. I lost in the third round with a red light then ran 12.75 on the 12.74 dial

I thought the overall crowd was a little light but it made for a more enjoyable day as far as I was concerned.

All in all it was a good day, not enough fast cars though....and too damn much down time with people dragging fluid down the track instead of pulling over when it breaks.

I ran my Cobra for the fist time ever and pulled a 12.40 @ 115 on the F1's....I wasn't there to pull an actual time out of the car or I would have brought slicks or slipped the **** out of the clutch.....had a few words with some ignorant ass people for parking directly in back of my trailer......for those of you that dont know, do not park your car in back of someone trailer......it's pretty obvious that a car came on it and the spot your in is the owners.....I really had to hold back when one of the asses attempted to get cocky with me.....ok my rant is over, sorry!

gets cocky with you? gimmie a break attitude on legs. that "jackass" is a freind of mine and never gave you any attitude. you came over with a chip on your shoulder and ran your mouth before he could even attempt to say sorry and move. he moved over as far as he could to try not to be in who evers way was next to him and you puffed up your chest and stuck the cantalopes under your arms and gave him lip. the kid you decided to try to belittle is one of the most polite kids i know. you on the other hand are the opposite of the spectrum. so poke another needle in your ass and get bent. its dip sh*its like you that give stangers the punk name they have. mister i gotta trailer up on street tires to rip out an blistering 12.40. i usually dont come into other forums to stir the pot but your a jack *ss. short fat and frumpy thats a riot. cuz your the picture of perfection right. and the highlight of you weekend was to rush back here and rant on someone you tried to bully becuase you were in a bad mood for some reason, oh yeah the juice gives ya rage i forgot. lighten up and grow up you have no more seinority then anyone else. wow you have raced for 8 years. i have for 12 and **** happens. deal with it like an adult not a moron. sad part is those that were there and heard and saw you know your a dick and acted like a jerk. but on here your the angel and hes the devil. great things about forums you can lie all you want.

Ha, so you want to start **** here on this thread, why didn't you open your mouth when I confronted him then?.......Yeah, I was in the right he was 100% WRONG.....I simply told him he was in back of my trailer and he gave me a ****ty attitude and made a sly remark under his breath when I was walking away.... I herd it so I turned around to answer his question, plain and simple. It's a funny thing, the first insult you make is about my physique. I'm sorry you look the way you do, keep eating the pork rinds fella..... dont take it out on me bro, I earned my power lifting trophies and mixed martial arts trophies with blood and sweat.

I have been racing over 9 years and never made an enemy!.....I have so many friends in this sport it would make your head spin. So I have a ****ing truck and trailer. I drove my car up on FFW, decided to take the trailer and truck this time so my wife could relax.....oh, and yeah **** happens, you want to pay for my tow when I snap a half shaft or smoke a clutch?? Lets all take our dicks out im sure you have the biggest since you drove your **** box up there huh??

And BTW, I met you "friend" at the Rodman car show and thought he had an attitude then....i'm pretty good at figuring people out right off the bat due to my instinct and line of work.....I knew from the get go I would have a problem with your group.....**** MR king of NED I should have bowed down to you....I'll remember to do so sir when I catch you next time.....why didn't you tell your buddie to move his car somewhere else when you saw him park it there, were you looking for a confritation??....you have been racing for 12 yrs??....have you been bench racing the whole time???? if not you should have schooled your friend right from wrong.

It's a small world, i'm sure we'll met again......bring your buddie, we'll have tea and crumpets, i'm sure thats more your style......

first of all dip***** i wasnt in the imediate area when you opened your mouth i was busy eliminating racers in the class i was in. try it sometime. your talking like im him, my physique? you must be talking about him still. and yeah your physique was the first thing i insulted becuase i know how people who workout all their life to brag about it and show it off take great offense to it. its called pushing buttons. seems to be an underlying theme in your 2nd paragraph, dicks all over it, are you hiding somthing ? like the salami? and yeah i drove my box up there eliminated all but one competitior who i can admit was better then me and drove it home. when you learn how to build a car you can do that to. i prolly shoulda got out of my vehicle at the end of the track and called him a bitch becuase he didnt let me win or sothing right. and then make up a story he was rude while we drove down the track making mean faces at me. ***** happens was a remark about the parking situation not the breaking a part situation. try re reading again before punching your keybaord to hell next time. when you catch me next time? dude if you had balls you woulve said somthing to someone other then someone smaller then you. your a punk thats all there is to that. and i insulted your "physique and you did exactly what i thought you would show off your self some more. "my line of work", "my power lifting", " my martial arts bladdy blah blah" your a blow hard. our group? i hardly remember saying i knew anyone other then my freind as i dont. maybe your making up words that i said as well? and your right its a small world and your such a big guy im surpirised you can fit yourself and your ego in it at the same time. i must admit that last line of your reply did surprise me. i was surprised a moron like you could understand the concept of sarcasm. bottom line like a said before is a human being would have asked him to move not threw an attitude at him like a tough guy . and come on guy get real out of the whole weekend that was one of the highlights you had to relay on the boards? how tuff you were to someone smaller then you? watch out big man on campus coming through everyone get your lunch money ready for collection. and now i shall bow to the most perfect human being on the face of the earth
