HUH? do what to your 2G?

RWD I'd guess

Carey's manifold cracked in a completely different place this time, not where mike re-welded it. His best was 13.4 @ 108 without boost holding at all. He had one good run that got fucked up when he hit 3rd gear. There was oil on the track and his car went sideways going into 3rd so he had to quit that run. Hes on his way back with his original tranny :banana:

Yes, the rwd conversion..

13.4 at 108 and no boost? sux for him but at least he was able to limp it back home..

Thanks man, The shootout frickin rocks. I got some good video of Marco's Runs and pretty much all the quick 16. Also got that black 1G that caught on fire on tape. Turned off the camera right before he blew up but got a good shot of it smoking.

Just wish I was able to tape my own runs :angry: If anyone got one on tape let me know

Also taped a few of you moorhead guys runs. Including the one where your VC goes bouncing down the track from under your car.

that would be cool to see some videos.

Here are the pictures from the Upstate NY DSM Group I belong to.

Jeff Elliot is the one with the 1G that had the nitrous backfire. He was Extreme's bitch a few years ago, I think he's unsponsored now. That blue RWD belongs to Bruce Kwartler and used to be Buschur's yellow car. A few guys from Michigan are building another RWD 1G, they brought it on a trailer to display throughout the weekend. They've spent thousands of hours just to get it to the rolling stage, so I hope you've got lots of time and money if you want to make one for yourself.

I spent the weekend working on my car due to problems, but it was still a blast.

There is an in-car video of the Marco pumpkin bouncing run, but I don't think it's available for distribution yet. Check the Magnus site, it'll be there soon if not already. Marco's commentary is funny as always.

Here's Marco's rear end after it bounced down the track at 100+ mph.

The 2g rear end is not as solidly mounted as the 1g thats for sure.

is that a good thing or a bad thing?

Probably bad.... :uh:

Wondering if anyone is making anything to stiffen it up?

Marco's going to fab up a tubular crossmember setup like he's got in the front. I've seen mention of it for a 1G, and the price was not cheap.
