Heres the few pics i got off my camera as i was busy trying to figure out what the hell was going on.

Thats me in my VR-4 yea i did make it out there.

Thats my best time slip, yea its slow i was stuck with only 10 PSI of boost

Just a nice car i saw

This sentra is my buddies.

Erik

**Goat Blower** · 04-09-2006

Do we really need to reply using someone's post with pictures? We saw them the first time.

**Goat Blower** · 04-09-2006

Nice times Vassil and Jet. It's good to hear someone's having good luck with the quartermaster, Jet's getting me nervous, I haven't even put mine in yet. And 127mph on a 3052? Damn, that's cooking for a small turbo.

very nice! i was recording everything. I'd love to post those Vids, but i dont have the correct equipment for my comp but will try. There was that Red 92 Talon that was running 11s all day long! Also saw that Evo that was built by Buschur himself which was pretty cool! Did anyone stay for the eliminations?

turbotalon1g · 04-09-2006

I didn't know that the evo was actually built by buschur. The red/burgundy was a guy named shamus (sp) he actually has a beige 1ga that is faster, they are both from WI and very nice guys. So is the old guy with the 240sx, he knows some shit, built an intercooler pipe, that is an intercooler itself!!!

BOVADDICT · 04-09-2006

I was there. Didnt run but saw a lot of you all. I did however have some fun in the dirt in the parking lot after the compilation rounds. Didnt meet any of you but some of you mightve seen my car. The ride home was the best rollin like 20 deep with civics who just wouldnt leave you alone...

BOVADDICT · 04-09-2006

oh ya and carb'd rotary engined datsons are the fastest things there is.

cudvig · 04-10-2006

False. I think you meant to say loudest.

How true. And the most annoying. They should just push that thing down the staging lanes.

TalonFiero · 04-10-2006

Puerto Powah! Loud and very slow purpose built drag cars.

Those guys seem to show up everywhere. The couple times a year I show up to race at Grove Creek, Puetro Powah is there too. The only way to avoid them is to go race at Cedar Falls.

BTW, the right lane at Rock Falls is sponsered by LES Performance according to the announcer.

hah colin i know... i hang out with him, and help him with his car alot. any of you guys see me run him, stupid reaction time i woulda had him...lol

EvilEvo · 04-10-2006

Congratulations Vassil on the 11.2! I knew your car would beat my pitiful 11.4

Anything to get away from the sad sad 1.88 60' times which seem good for Rock Falls, your car will hit a 10 with a few more passes.. I am confident. Not bad for parking lot mechanics!

Too bad you couldn't make it Jake, you would have kept the DSM to Honda ratio down a little bit more.

The white "Buschur" powered Evo is Trevor's. He has ran faster at Great Lakes with the car... I believe an 11.45 @ 121 or thereabouts. Rock Falls just aint the best place for traction, at least on import days.

Also, good job for Josh for the first time at the track with a completely bone stock 1st gen w/ 120k miles with the 14.6 @ 93. Put a clutch, motor, turbo, fuel system, exhaust and an ECU and maybe you can make me more proud

Too bad JETs car wasnt running well. I would have liked to see it line up to Vassils powered by the puny snail.

**Shane@DBPerformance** · 04-10-2006

Congratulations on the time Vassil. You keep pushing that car and turbo farther and farther. You must have the tune pretty well dialed now.

The best run of the day was an 11.2@127.9 The turbo is still the same FP3052, the boost was spiking to 34psi and settling at 31psi. Still running the same 2.0 I had 3 years ago, but now with double springs, built tranny and a quartermaster twin-disk . Here is the time slip ... I was really excited that I hit 101.68 in the 1/8th mile

Thank you Shane

Haha that was funny when the engine started on fire. I stood up and started clapping and cheering because it finally shut off.

"you won't be lazy when that shit blows up and you gotta pull it out" and sure enough... next run, KABOOOM!M!M!M!M!MM!. He's got a 61mm on a DSMlink, magnus etc.. on 33 psi 110 octane untuned I believe. Right Thou? You can chime in now.. just thought I'd clear that up that I feel like shit jinxing you.

I thought that the wastegate being unplugged that it would run unlimited boost and i figured thats why it blew. I hope that you get that thing going again I'm glad to see someone running E85!!

Kevin

**Shane@DBPerformance** · 04-11-2006

I remember a guy from Illinois a few years ago running E85 on a DSM. His also put a rod through the block with no datalogged knock.
