Well I went to the track for some test & tune todaywith my stroker V6. The temps were great for making huge horsepower. The guys preped the track for the few of us that had made it down there for this speical testing day.
The first three passes got quicker with each pass. Tell you what there was this guy with a "rat" nova that could not beleive how much noise this blower makes. The fourth pass was a killer it went 9.51 at 138 mph... Now that is moving... We went back and played with the setup a bit more and added some more boost to it and tried it again. The car blasted off the line like there was a rocket in it. When it hit second gear all hell broke out. The trans went into "free wheel" and by the time I got my big foot out of it the engine was hurt.. How bad is something that time will tell, but it did get hurt..
So much for these early test & tune deals... Oh well, I got some time to rip it down and see what went wrong.....Rich

The guys had a get everything ready day and a group of us were invited down to have at it. This was by "invite only" some of the big Chicago wise guys were there as well. This is not a bike group for those not from around here, rather it is some of the best drag and wheel stander around. Those guys really know how to race, yet they are there in a second if you need an extra hand with something.
This is NOT one of those april jokes either, if ANYONE wants to see the broken parts feel free to stop by. The car is still sitting in the trailer and it will be there till this week end.
Let me say this much, if this thing is broken bad then I am going to throw the towel in and walk away from these V6's This engine has the best parts that $$$$$$$$ can buy. If it came apart, then there will be a lot of stuff for sale.
This has become way too costly to keep these V6's running. You can drop a big block in these cars and go 12.0's all day long with nothing more than a crate engine with a 3 year 36,000 mile blanket on it. Lets hope it is just the transmission and not the engine as well. ....Rich

Not the hot line the owner and Bob called one hour ago he knows him real well so again your digging yourself deeper in hole. Do like making storys up for some weird reason?

Not making any trouble here you just stated you ran this time we like to see proof time slip anything. Plus understand why you said you ran on 4/1/08 and in fact there was no testing just stating facts thats it. We all have a right to our opinions and requests and like to see some proof not just something that has no truth to it

Jim,

I don't understand why you are demanding all this proof from Rich, when you haven't posted anything to back up your 9.52 :confused:

I don't think either one of you guys have much credibility within the community, because nobody ever sees either of these cars run.

David not all is lost yet. The transmission is what blew for sure. If the engine got hurt as well is still unknown.
Now as far as posting things, or people seeing or riding in things. There was a post of one slip a time ago. There was a video shot out the window of one car and I think it was Kurt K. that timed it and said it was a 10 second pass. Then there is the "mohawk man" he DROVE more than one car when he was here. Now if this is not enought, there is also Dave D. that drove the slower V6 car and did say it was stupid fast when he tuned it the first time..
Besides all this, lets see how hurt the car is before anyone throws a blanket on the whole thing....I will get to work on this car this week end and see what's up with it....Rich

Last year Wisco Andy took one of my car down to the track for me. He was even there when it went faster than 12.0's I don't remember just how good it was running that day, but that is another person that HAS been at the track. I do wish that you and I were closer to where we live so you also could have seen some of the runs. I know I can always go to the shoot out, but as you already know last year was not a good year for me to do much of this stuff.
This is a new year and I do plan on getting to some sccoa stuff....Rich

Actually I dont care either way as I dont have a dog in that fight. My car is just a street car and I run it down the track for fun a few times a year. Seemed to me an easy solution. Jim cries foul that the track isnt open so it didnt happen and rich saids he posted the time slip. I would think the time slip would have not only the time but the date. But never mind me, Im just gettin some popcorn and sit back and read some more:rolleyes:

Rich,

I'm not talking about one of your big block cars or one of your other v6 cars, I'm talking about this supposedly wicked fast v6 SC of yours that you claim ran a 9.51.

As for the slower SC that Dave D. rode in and tuned that was mentioned in these threads. It may have been a pretty fast car, but you and I both know it never pulled 437 rwhp.

Tell you what there was this guy with a "rat" nova that could not beleive how much noise this blower makes. The fourth pass was a killer it went 9.51 at 138 mph... Now that is moving...

Sounds like the Nova did 9.51 to me.....

Its all in fun anyways and a start of spring and racing....What would racing be without trash talking..And a bit of fibbing..Makes it great...

Id get in the mix and throw some mud around myself if I had a car running similar times....But for now I wish the both of you best of luck and have a great year racing....Im rooting for the both of you.....

Just so you all know

The offical 9 second record with proof and verified and submitted to George is the 9.989et run. Here is link to proof of time slip and can post more if needed time slip in my hand now http://www.sccoa.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=29674&d=1197182069


We did in fact run 9.520et but me being a true honest racer dont think its official until I can make a backup run like I did with the 9.989et run. We are not happy with that time at all we thought we could do better. Now the car has a new combo our eyes are set on much bigger berrior with an IRS SC with M90 supercharger. Only thing we changed was trans and went to stroker shortbock. The 9.989et run was special to be the first to do so and its now a big part of SC history ( proven fact )

and pap apparently has the record setting video but nobody he knows can help him put it up...

rich...jim posted a slip, no video proof, but at least proof that a car on a certain day did run 9s...rich said he had proof, so maybe hes making Jimjr dig a hole before he posts it....who knows:rolleyes:

and i think we can all agree that any future "record setting" runs will need solid video proof, or should not be posted at all.


pap, send that data to SOMEONE!!!

its gotta be saved to a mem card, or something, mail that to jim or me, ill have it up and running within minutes of recieving it...ill send the mem card back and everyone is happy:cool:

Thats fine for you pap, but Jim put it out there to start trouble, as you can see where he does one of his little "lets get back on topic" posts.

Anyway Jim i think its pretty hypocritical for you to bash and discredit Riches claims when all you ever do is complain about people disbelieving your claims. Why not try being a respectable person and congratulate Rich for his accomplishments. Try showing the same courtesy to others as you demand others show to you when you state your accomplishments?

Im sure he will go edit all of them now that the point has been made... Like the time i proved him to be a fake before and he went back and edited his posts.. Ohh well more of the same.. Im going to pull a jim and pay another $15 so i can have a fake buddy to stick up for me all the time.. Geeze get a life..

Further more i wont believe anyone made a 9second pass in a v6 sc without a video.

PS: A few interesting points!

1 Pap and jim are NEVER online at the same time

2 They always post within a few minutes of the other

3 Pap always jumps in to save the day when jim gets bashed

I agree 100%, no video? NO POST!

Plus I hope you guys post a video or your 9 second SCs because I love watching drag videos on youtube.

Just so you all know (My Proof)

The offical 9 second record with proof and verified and submitted to George is the 9.989et run. Here is link to proof of time slip and can post more if needed time slip in my hand now http://www.sccoa.com/forums/attachme...4&d=1197182069


We did in fact run 9.520et but me being a true honest racer dont think its official until I can make a backup run like I did with the 9.989et run. We are not happy with that time at all we thought we could do better. Now the car has a new combo our eyes are set on much bigger berrior with an IRS SC with M90 supercharger. Only thing we changed was trans and went to stroker shortbock. The 9.989et run was special to be the first to do so and its now a big part of SC history ( proven fact )



Rich (No Proof) of going quicker than 9.989et

No time slip with date and time no verification of run made track closed on day of run thus run was never made. Just check bad weather for Tuesday 4/1/08 in the area of track

Track confermed and verified closed on 4/1/08 By Bob Johnson

(Note)
We dont need this thread turned into a fighting match the topic is Rich stating his track testing we proved it didnot happen. He should come forward state why he posted with no proof it only brings trouble toward him (Please) keep this thread clean and keep the fighting through PM

The next time I go to the local track I'll ask one of the sub 9 second cars to give me their time slip then I'll have a time slip to say I'm the fastest sc, so just having a time slip means nothing to me...not enough proof people.

I need a video to make me a believer and I want to believe.....:rolleyes:

What's the hold up on posting more proof than a time slip? A video apparently exists, though Pap hasn't taken me up on my offer of hosting it and posting it up. Post it up.

I've met Rich, and ridden in some of his whack rides. I don't know why he would lie about this. So personally I don't have any problem just taking his word for it. Kudos Rich, it takes a lot to get these cars into the 9's as Jim can attest.

Damn I am glad I have Jim and Pap on ignore. :D

The unfortunate thing is that I still see their comments when people quote them. If only more people would do the same as me. It makes this board far more enjoyable.

I would hate to add Rich to my ignore list, but I am tired of the "I went 9.xx posts and I have proof" posts. Post the proof or don't start the thread. When I say proof, I mean a video taped run which should be easy to accomplish. I would tend to believe Rich before I would Jim, but a video is the only true way to verify it.

Rich was running at a track where he knows the owners as friends and it was just open for a few of them. So maybe they weren't exactly printing time slips.

So why is anyone doubting Rich? He has multiple cars that people have ridden in that think are crazy fast and these are people who tune 10 second SC's for a living.

Why would Jim, who has posted nothing but one time slip and has asked people not to start trouble be so infuriated with Rich posting this? He isn't requesting the number 1 spot, he is just content with having run the times he has.

This reminds me of times when people ran quicker than Jim and him not believing it could be done and then once his team was smart enough to figure out how, he wanted to be adored and praised as king!

Congratulations, Rich! You da man!:)

I hate to be the bearer of bad news for the new 9.5 track record, but I called the number listed for Great Lakes Dragaway and talked to Chris the general manager. Chris is a women and I quote from her, "The track was NOT open on April 1st, there where no cars racing because there where 6 inches of water on the track."

Ok i am confused you said you were still driving at the time jim first ran 9s.



But jim posted about his run on 12-09-2007, 12:34 AM



But you posted this on the 11-17-2007, 09:22 PM

What I would like to see at the shootout is Rich on one side and Jim on the other. They could pick their teams we could have a real shootout. Whoops that would mean Rich and Jim would have to be there to actually pick teams. I guess I dont have a good plan after all. Guess I'll bow out and sit on the side line and let the young guys duke it out untill the referee steps it;)

Lets get this very clear

I am no lair I am a serious drag racer you look at my racing history we dont post fauls times period. My 9.989et run was true to fact with time slip and date, time, track open anyone could call or come. An honest well known member went and contacted the NHRA tech at the track the time of the run to verify the run was made. A video was taken by Bob Jinkins wife I been trying to receive a copy of the video the resonse I get they have hours of tape to go through. Time slip was subbmitted to George to post as soon as he gets time to up-date the Top SC list. We set a historic run by an SC first 9 second run injoy the fact you even have one

When we go to run for the first Sc to enter the 8 second mark that same person that called the NHRA tech has made an offer to video and be a part of the team and I will injoy having him here in Calif. The only official 9 second run is the 9.989et run all els is just testing when time comes to go for a new record things will be in place so all will be happy

I said enough on this matter be proud and happy to have the cars we have and the time and money we spend to get them as quick threads like this takes the injoyement and fun out of things. There others working hard to run 9's I hope they never have to go through this and wish those people the best to reach there goals

So, uhhh, when you posted this little account of what happened that night:

(Team SBR sets new record)

Silver Bullet Racing sets first 9 second run with a 9.989etat 135.303mph with near perfect reaction time .005 to top it off. Well it was a mad dash to get to the track before test and tune closed the lanes Chuck just finished the car and wanted to do two test runs to see if the car will go straight with no control problems with the IRS suspension before the 22nd Nor-Cal meet. We got there pulled it out of the box went through tech put right in the lane I got strapped in waited for the go signal from the starter

First run car left like a rocket pulled the wheels sat it down hit 2nd and it made a hard move toward the center line I shut her down that was wild to say the least. Chuck made some adjustments to the suspension Dan down loaded the run graph made a tune adjustment it was real cold temps we got it cooled down got the IC like frozen ice we where ready again on a mission


Final run I wanted to make it good I left on the tree we used full converter stall on the trans brake it left real hard with a 1.481 60ft there was no tire spin or shake it went straight down the groove I shifted it early it was moving so quick and fast I know it would be good it went through the eye's a 9.989et at 135.030mph the new quickest and fastest SC record in the 9's. The hard work of my high tech guys payed off to get an IRS,AOD,M-90, 3.8v6 into the 9's awesome job by great guy's

After the 9 second run the NHRA tech officials come over looked the car over we now have a few issues to correct some big most SFI requirements need to be in place well get it done for Dec 22nd its nice to have a car that works for you not like before with top end darting shaking tire spin Chuck and Dan hat's off to two masters at what they do best

Where exactly did you do a back up run like a true racer?
