Re: Old Chicago - every Weds @ 8pm in Plymouth
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

Re: Old Chicago - every Weds @ 8pm in Plymouth
Just a thought, you could attach a pedal pad to the firewall. Just make sure to find one that's 9 pennies high.

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

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.

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.

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

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?

Re: Old Chicago - every Weds @ 8pm in Plymouth
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.

Hmmm, really? Interesting as I would've assumed as it collects water, therefore I thought it was hydro, lol. Regardless, thanks for the correction

^ No problem, it's a common mistake (especially when people are discussing brake fluid).

Re: Old Chicago - every Weds @ 8pm in Plymouth
So since everyone decided to go to the new meet, which is 5 times the driving time and on a night that I work, and will henceforth be called the "inconvenient" meet, is there going to be a meet tonight?
Or are we just going to split up in to little groups that'll never see each other and do a meet every night of the week like MNSC.ghey?

I'd like you all to come to downtown Saint Paul so I can walk to the meet. Sound good?

Re: Old Chicago - every Weds @ 8pm in Plymouth
^.
Spaz i don't enjoy 45min drive each way or using a 1/4 tank to go to meets with no fun time included.
I'm not totally against it, but it was nice to meet up for a bit and then be home within 20 mins.
