Nice graphics DSC

There was more in it, but something in the bottom end let go. It still runs, but it doesn't quite sound as nice as it should!

Ouch!

Exhaust, downpipe, tires, fuel lines, fuel system, interior, regulator, WG, used stock T-III long block, intercooler, suspension, open diff trans. It's a completely different car from what was at SDAC back in June.

If it wasn't hurt, it would be going to Cecil in a few weeks. But, she's done for the year. In a few months, I'll work on it again. I'm just burnt out on it now...since July, I've been working on it almost every night.

Man you have been busy! Total different car is right. I don't blame you for being burned out one bit.

You going to bring the SRT out to Cecil?

[DaveSkrab]

This event was a Blast! Just taking a look at the ideas and the creativity of the other competitors is really impressive. I'd highly recommend at the minimum to go and spectate. Just ask Reaper. Thanks for coming out and supporting the event.
I'll also post some pics once I get them off the camera. Pretty schnazzy stuff.

Awesome job guys!!!

[Pat]

I should also apologize publicly....for breaking the car before Dave could make some passes with it!

[Ondonti]

How exactly is a stock t3 longblock allowed?

[guyd_15]

As long as you build the car for $2008 or less it's allowed.

Come on Pat, if you had said you were wooopping me in the puzzle car, all will be forgivin.
and I'll say publicly you kicked my butt with a .016 lite to my .029 and were never behind even with a "hurt" motor.
We will get you next year.LOL
I hate getting wooped

You get it in a wrecked car that you didn't buy on TM.com.

[RoadWarrior222]

It's real easy keeping to the budget, you just barn find a GNX and TD together in a $500 for both as long as they're out of here in a day, deally, sell the "extra spare parts" for $12,000 and get to work on the TD....

[DaveSkrab]

No need to appologize, because technically... I DID make a couple passes and set a personal record in the process.

Now we just need to get mine ready to go!

[Rampage16V]

Congratulations guys ! Sounds like great fun.

Here's a few pics.

Thanks for the kudos! My GLH was having a terrible ignition problem that i couldn't figure out. This limited boost to 6psi at both the autox and drags. I ran a 16.0 at the Challenge. A month before the challenge i had run a 14.0. Plus, after that 14sec run i added an extra injector. I was hoping for mid-13s at the challenge, but alas...

The extra boost certainly would have bumped me up a buncha spots in the standings, but Pat and Barrys cars are soooo much cleaner and faster than mine its not funny.

It was good to see you guys down there. And Dave, sorry for calling you "Tim" all weekend. I'm terrible w/ names....

Here's Pat's car making a 12.7 drag pass:

Thanks Mike!

And...I forgot to mention, HUGE thanks to Mike Kelly for lending me a seat belt. In my rush to put the car together, I forgot to put the seat belt back in for the event!

My GLH autocross video for anyone interested:

Nice!

I certainly want to attend, maybe next year who knows.....

[Captain Chaos]

Did anyone ask why they used the pits for an autocross instead of the roadcourse?
