Didn't mean to leave you out Slickford!! We won't hold it against you for being from Fairfield

 

Well, I could have said that I am from Walnut Creek or something! Fairfield isnt that bad, but it isnt getting any better!!

Just giving you some crap, like Davis is any better. Where else could the city counsil vote to spend 29K on a "frog tunnel"? I'll keep posting when we are going out to the track. If I get my 4.10's in I'll be going out again soon.

If you can make it, drop a note here or at mjhengel@ucdavis.edu, so I can keep a look out for ya.

 

Well we are going to chance the rain and head out to the track. It's Mopar night so let's show them the power of FORD!!!

Hope to see some of you out there.

 

Hey 5150,

You're getting better & better, no wonder you're getting hooked on the drag strip! It's a blast no matter what your performance level, and your's is definitely improving, nice reaction time too!

All in all a good day (about an 8 degree difference in last weeks runs). I dropped my best time down and didn't blow anything up. Unfortunately a guy in a 66 stang backed up into my front end (on the return road) and creased my front bumper (D'OH). Luckily my airbad didn't deploy, and the other guy was sorry and was very up front about it. Maybe I can get a Stillen bumper cover out of it?

I hate to say it, but I'm getting really hooked on this drag racing stuff .

 

Got one good photo out at the track. This was taken on my 15.9 run, got the Camero out of the blocks . But gave up the lead after about 100ft Not too bad thought


For those who are confused I'm the Black Truck

Great times and reaction!! What do you think of the TB spacer? Does it give more power?

Mikey...
I've tried both the squeeler (poweraid) and my phenolic spacer and they both feel like I get more low end (on my setup). Others (like Neal) have said on their rides they've lost time on their ET's. Once I start getting consistent times, I'll compare my spacer with the poweraid and to stock intake. That way I should be able to tell if I'm getting any benefits. The butt-dyno says yes, but the true test is out on the track or on a dyno. Really making these spacers is just a curiousity. I wanted to make a spacer that gave performance with out the "just stepped on the cat's tail" noise.
