yeah that shit was retarded, really pissed me off. Thanks to everyone for stopping for me. I need to get that pedal permanently fixed!!!! I ran Emily on 394 once at about 80% throttle and an .875 IAM (ECU was on it's way to retard mode) and walked her good though :D

Just a thought, you could attach a pedal pad to the firewall. Just make sure to find one that's 9 pennies high.

T28, 22-24psi, 110 race for those numbers, or so I'm told.

He was running 9psi and surging tonight, which I noticed when he ran me, it kept cutting out hard and didn't really go anywhere. So I dunno.

Don't believe anything that kid says. Has he shown you a dyno graph? He said he dynoed it at John Haley's.

[FattyBoomBatty]

And that I was told by a source I trust it has a T28 :)

Say, I ran completely out of fuel on the way home tonight... first time I've ever done that. Good thing I was kinda trying to do that (for winter storage) and was only 500' from my driveway when it happened. :lol:


Wouldn't it be better to store your car with a full tank of gas with Stabil in it so the tank doesn't rust? I would think that would be way better. And if you drive the 1G, holy sideways launching batman. My quest doesn't even get that much angle, haha.

Can't accuse him of babying that car, that's for sure.

Yep, do this. Gas has so many additives these days that it stays fresh much longer than it used to.

I'm amazed it left there in one piece.

Yea, that's my heap of junk... That's with a gentile 4500 Shepard style slip too.... need wider tyres.

The only time that car comes out of the stable is when it's going to be whipped.

Dumb question I realize, but I'd like to be sure: does E85 last as long as E10 when stored?

[Murlo26]

E85 is hydroscopic, so the longer you keep it the bigger chance it has of collecting water. On a new car it might not be an issue, but if you have a hole or any seepage of any kind that could mean water in the tank.

I'd personally keep an E85 car very low on gas and fill up in the spring.

Oh, and you were good and sideways on that launch before getting onto 494, lol, it was quite funny...my two step was acting all weird rev hanging so I ended up kind of launching behind you and spinning too.
