Yeah, I had to change most of my setup (engine, clutch, trans, brake setup). Unfortunately, I don't make "bank" so it's going to take a while to pay for everything.

People said Brainerd is a faster track than Rock Falls, but somehow I ran my fastest E.T. and highest MPH at Rock Falls...

Well I dont make bank eigher but still trying.... You do have alot more work to get done than I do so sell your ed ek and get working on your race car.:)

Depending on your set up that day I guess but ive went the best at cedar. I cut low 1.6 (best 1.616) 60fts. and 113©1/8 also lifting on the shifts. Just my opinion and trying to motivate people!

You know you didn't go by yourself 1 out of 3 of those time son!!!!!

Garage_Boy
04-25-2011, 12:06 AM
as of right now, not sure yet as the coolant leaked from the cap and not from the reservior. I'm just using a cheap radiator right now with a 1.1 cap so gonna try to use a different one to see if that fix it. If not, then I don't know.

That's the same shit mine did at the top of every pull. Tried 3 different radiator caps, 3 sets of head studs, 4 head gaskets, and nothing worked. I have it narrowed down to timing not being correct (most people I asked say this) or head lift because of crap ARP studs. They want $1100-1300 to make me some in L19 material, so looks like I'm stuck.

Mine sprayed from the radiator cap. Reservoir filled, but did not spray or leak out from there. I'll post a video that you can see it in.


If you look close at the top of the radiator, you can see the water pouring out of the cap.

My problems are old news. Everything has been checked and re-checked. The only possibilities are head studs or timing related.

This isn't top fuel. So whether or not they fuse head and block together is irrelevant.

Well cruse control switch was stuck on so it wouldnt rev past 8k for no lift to shift, but got it fixed and logged 10081rpm today, also makes 25psi at 5900 rpm on the dyno tonight.

So everything is ready just hope the weather changes cause 60% chance for rain.

Also the e85 is still at 71% so I hope it changes soon so I can turn it up.

I checked it late last night and it showed 40% chance scattered showers. If it's at 60% now, that's not a good sign.

I did a 3rd gear burn out then went up on the 2 step and left on 7psi and rim moved 5 inches on the tires and the axle twised and broke.

http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/kk47/minthatch/Mobile%20Uploads/PART_1306560992599.jpg

Got a new axle in and put 3psi more in the tires so it would spin but the track was preped so good it just hooked up. I had boost cut at 21psi and had the boost set at 25 from 120mph so the car went 11.2@105 1.80 60ft using 1st,2nd,and 3rd cause as soon as I hit 4th it cut out and I lifted.
