Dan Sly just called me. Coy Miller just turned a 10.85 !! Talk about stepping up. He did it with an M 90 blower.

Shane, how far are you from Norwalk? If you see Coy, give him props from the rest of us.

David, I live just outside of Columbus so it may take me maybe 2 1/2 hours for me to get there. I am not really sure because I have never been there before.

I dont know what Coy looks like so it might be kinda hard but I am sure I will meet lots of new people up there, and I will spread the word about everyone giving him props from the boards.

Clip almost another second and a half off that last picture. I can only wait to see what that 10 second launch looked like.

Coy went home early today so I didn't get to congraduate him.

I didn't know where everyone was today so I went to Norwalk thinking thats where everyone was. Nope. So I pulled in and did a little donnut and head towards the gates only to be met by four security people. Needless to say they kicked me out.

I called up Bill E. and he told me how to get to the dyno. I desided that I wanted to dyno my car too since everyone else was and I had just put a 5% pulley and a 3.5 SCP intake tube on my car. All I have to say is that I was disapionted at what happend. First, the dyno wasn't getting an accurate reading of my tach and when the guy went to pull the aligator clip off it pulled one of my plug wires out while the engine was running causing it to miss like crazy. Secondly, right at 4000 RPM on run one and 3000 RPM on run two the engine cut off like it hit a wall or like an on off switch, and back fire too. I am not sure what the cause is yet but I think it is my plug wires. I think I am going to start a new thread after I replace the wires.

I got both of my runs on vedio tape if anyone wants to see it? Also I got XR7 Dave's runs and a 347ci SC too. I just need someone to host them.
