Default my last three trips to the dragstrip

Breaking stuff on the m+h 24.5x8.5 slicks. =(

3/24/07 Busted the flange off the turbo manifold.


Rewelded it, braced the turbo better and ditched the exhaust. Open dp isnt too bad on the street, always coasted by cops with the 3" exhaust anyways. =)


3/30/07 Busted both axles and the clutch. It was coasting from about half track and still ran quicker than most of the cars there.




4/28/07 Yay, I didn't bust anything. =) Boo, the first half of the track was slippery, then it started raining. =(

Heading to the local import day race tommorow. Hopefully there will be enough fast cars to run a heads up quick class. (not that i think my little single cam has a chance, just sounds like fun) Hopefully I can run some better times.
