I go to North High in North Saint Paul.
My current mods are:
2.5" Dp(pressbent)&testpipe
2.25" custom piping to 2.5 exhaust
MBC (set at 14, spikes to 18)
Intake
I think thats it. Best 60' time was 1.9...had to slip the clutch, then slipped more than wanted, haha. There's kids at school who think horsepower tells all or engine size tells all and the ones who dont think that are the ones that I've beaten or the ones that know from experience. I'll talk to the guy when I get the chance...it should be before any snow starts falling and I'll make sure its not raining to make it fair.

Dude, rewire the fuel pump and turn the boost up to 17 psi! It should add around 20 hp and it takes about 45 min.

I'm not the best mechanic here, so I wouldnt know how to rewire the fuel pump. I read about it on vfaq and got all confused. I'll read it again and see if I'm up to it.
I was messing with my MBC and now I'm only boosting 12...haha, so I dont think I can beat him right now. I'm just trying to figure out why its spiking...

Make your line for the MBC as short as possible. Also, where are you hooking the MBC into? The BOV line is the prefered spot.

Yeah, I have it T-ed off of the BOV line. I have the MBC bolted onto the fan, so I have on short line and the one going to the BOV line is a little over a foot long....is that bad? I just finished reading on the fuel pump re-wiring...it doesnt seem hard at all. I'll go at it once I get all of the stuff...

It would really piss him off if he get's walked by a Escort...SOHC 1.9. Last time at slippery rock I ran a 14.5@95 @ 8psi, then me and carltalon hooked up his MBC, 17psi is crazy.

Alot of people would get pissed of if they got beat by an escort. Is it a red Escort? I think it might've been you that went there with Carl, a few of his VW buddies and I.

Well...I tried to race on of my work buddies. He is the one with the '94 GT. It was after work and I went his way and pulled over on a street that had no one most of the time. He pulled up next to me and I asked him if he wanted to race...we were going to go, until at the end of the road a car turned into the street. So I went a little and he went back into my lane. I was so hyped up too, I still want to race a GT!!!

Well...I recently just raced my work buddy(1994 Mustang GT 5.0). I got off work before him and went to McDonalds for some food and ran into him as he was just leaving work. So he caught up to me on White Bear, then we go on 36 and there is this car infront of me. I get infront of that car and wait for him to pull up and line next to me, but he keeps on going. So I get into 3rd and catch up speed, now he is about 1 1/2 car lenght infront of me and no one is getting the gain. Third gear ends and now I'm in fourth and next thing I know, I walked pass him or power walked. I get into fifth gear and we're doing about 125+ and the light on English is coming up and I see about 4 cars in my lane and none in the next. I didnt want to cut my buddy off, so I stomp of the brakes which didnt really stop as quick as I wanted. I planned to wait for my buddy to pass me up so I can switch lanes...all of a sudden the last car in the group switches and takes up the open lane. At that time, I knew I would be able to stop in time...but my buddy might not. He flies by me and swerves between the rail and the car, he had like 1.5' on each side of his car. Then we're going with traffic and I catch up, we talk alittle and go our own ways. The next time I see him at work and we're talking about it again, he was telling everyone that he missed the shift from D2 to D3 and over revved....he has an automatic. He claims to have been catching back up, but it took him a few seconds to fly by me as I was stomping on the brakes as hard as I could. I cant claim that I beat him unless he says I beat him and he wont say it...which sucks. I hate to sound cocky, so I'll just wait until he says it. Oh well..I dont think I did to bad, he had like a 10 MPH start on me...it was fun until that one point.

Okay...now that that's over. If anyone wants to tell their stories about racing or whatever...I'd want to hear about it. There arent many interesting topics I like to read, so I'll try this topic. I just like reading this kind of stuff...its interesting.

My brother has a '02 mustang GT convert auto. It's slow as hell. I took it to prom last year and was pissed b/c it doesnt haul ass like my 1G....and my 1G is slow as hell. Haha. I've also raced a '89 gt 5.0 manual that had headers/exhaust/cam with 4 people in my car and won. Boy was he pissed, a ricer with a fart cannon beat him.

I raced my friend's '89 GT 5.0 last year and beat him. I had 3 other people in my car (all guys) and he had 2 girls in his car. I bogged at the start and beat him. My other buddy still doesnt think I can beat him if he had a better launch...hehehe.
