C'mon mike... TALK!!!!

[joey]

im sure he has a good reason for not saying anything yet, but i think he will be honest with his answer either way, he won't push something if he doesn't believe in it.

the reason i havent answered is because i just got home from being in the god damn rain all morning! LOL we ran everything through the production A main this morning after running everything up to C main last night. then the winds and rain came through and destroyed a number of easy ups and what not...track was soaked and it rain during most of the mains.

I put my Vspec in because i could not get that motor tuned all weekend. I shoulda asked smolnik for help but didnt like an idiot. ran hot like 230 then lean bogged when i got fuel. I tried just couldnt get her to run right. I am not giving up on it yet. I was just worried about this being a big race and not being able to run well in my heats.

On another note, panther is a joke of a company they sponsor this race and put out a "brand new" crime fighter replica tire and give it to only their sponsored guys for the most part. Way to show the customer how much you guys care. Oh and all the door prizes were PROLINE stuff. They didnt give out any panther tires till Dom started complianing LOL....and Proline tires toook the win...

...sorry for the rant been a long weekend

panthed does suck as a company. not going to buy any more of there stuff, i'll figure out how to get by without it.

i have a 06 ops torque and it rips. they are "slightly" different, but here's how i tune/tuned mine. get it so it's fat on top and on bottom. lean the low speed so it only bogs up top, then lean the top until it clears out. exergen it once after a tank, 200 or less(imo) and you're good to go.

works for me, and makes my x5 haul!

[cemeb4dk]

sorry to hear about the tunning issues....

Yeah I saw the pic of the tire it looks just like a CF.

[rocco79]

That sucks mike... Im sure you ( Your Dad!) will get it dialed for ya bro! LOL!!!

Its sad that 230 is hot for a motor

[Czech-it-Out Graphics]

ya i just gotta mess with it, ran so gooood in the street when i broke it in

[72dolphins]

for a radical/ops, 230 is very hot.

[Czech-it-Out Graphics]

andrew smolnik, Jose Zayas and all the other OPS drivers were running around that temp all weekend

[HAGASAN]

230 IS HOT? What they run good at? Everybodys motors were running hot during the mid afternoon, I even had to lean the low end on mine 2hrs as it got rich. Came in at 276 after the 3rd qaul.
Mike did the A-mains start or they cancel them out? It was pouring when i left.

[Czech-it-Out Graphics]

A main hill billy truck ran and it was soaking as wet, i pulled my shit off after about 5 minutes in the buggy b main

[cemeb4dk]

Mike,

How did the radicals that where there run?

[Czech-it-Out Graphics]

the guys that had new ones with less than a gallon on them seemed to have a little trouble keeping the tune, but anyone who had a gallon plus on theirs stayed consistant all weekend...guess i just gotta pump this baby full of fuel

[rocco79]

So the b-main was messy huh? what happened to romers car? he said on the grid it was in a bunch of pieces???

[Czech-it-Out Graphics]

it was muddy he means he tore it apart, we raced in the rain, my RB ran like chit so i pulled it and had minimal water damage lol

[rocco79]

Thats better than gettin your ass kicked and then having to scrape 2 lbs of mud off it

[Czech-it-Out Graphics]

ya i only had to scrape one pound of mud off my shit lol

[rocco79]

LOL!!!!!!!!

Play wit that 621 anymore yet? Or are you painting?

[Czech-it-Out Graphics]

I am working on some bodies for this poor hippy that has no ST1 body LOL

I am gonna try and get the radical going again maybe in the buggy, broke a uni on my ST1 with 1:30 left in the B main...I was in second lol

[snakebite46]

That's a TTR for ya.......................



JK Mike.

[Czech-it-Out Graphics]

ya i managed to put a groove in only one outdrive, never wore one out before, but i never changed it and it must got the pin caught and just snapped it off

Rich i still got ur temp gun

[cemeb4dk]

play with the engine anymore yet mike?

[Czech-it-Out Graphics]

no i havent had a chance to yet, I talked to Dom at IRC and he said it is normal for it to run a little hot for the first gallon or so and then the temps should drop significantly and the power will increase...I guess i just pussed out when it came in at 230 lol

[cemeb4dk]

Get on it slacker, mine shoudl ship tomorrow...

[rocco79]

puss!
