Right now it says no rain, sunny, 68 degrees, now that is called "PERFECT 60-130 weather"

Rob - Sebastiens car weighs around 3,500 lbs, full weight... It has an 80 mm turbo, but at this point, is only tuned on E85. I think it made right around 900 rwhp on E85 pump gas. Tommy indicated that he was planning to run a 4 and NOT in Sebastien's car, soooooooo, we shall all see what he's bringing...he didn't even tell me!

Did you ever run it? 3500 lbs? It was stripped on the inside, no carpert nothing? E85? Hmmm the tail pipe was white??
Robert

 

I will give you the few I have!

WAIT A MINUTE WHAT ISA POWER REP POINT

 

Bigger turbos...check

New spark plugs....check

New brake fluid....check

Drum of race gas ...check

I even washed the car

 

I need to do that washing the car thing. Got caught in the rain 2 times now...

I won't be on race gas till about 5 miles or so from the track just like we did at the Midnight 1320 event. Too costly to drive from Friendswood to Sealy on race gas only. So that means I won't be playing much on the way out there, plus my car is EXTREMELY loud on the street because of the straight pipes so I'd rather not risk anything.

I just hope I can do a LOT better than a 6.69 since I did that on 19psi.. I'm hoping the car will hold 22-23 (maybe even 24lbs) steady so I can shoot for close to the 5's.

I also heard there might be another car shooting for the 4's if he can get the right tires... Hmmm wonder who that could be? The car should be capable of doing it, as it makes about the same amount of power as Peter says he did when he went his 4.51 and it weighs hundreds of pounds less (I think).

 

If I go I just want to run a 4.999999999999999999999999 and I will be happy. Wish John could turn on the clocks for 1 run so I could get my 9 sec pass in the same day.

Rob - I know Justin Nenni tuned her on E85 only...AFAIK he is out of the country until next week so I'm fairly sure that he hasn't re-tuned it. I never ran that car b/c I was out of his league at the time...he is now on NEW 3.4L stroker and NEW turbo set-up. As for the weight, yes, a full weight Supra like mine weighs about 3,500 and AFAIK Sebastien's car is a 3,500 lb + car with a heavier IC, heavier turbo kit, cage, etc...

Powell - the weather will be NICE, soooooo, BRING IT!

Lil Powell - I'm rootin' for ya bro! COME ON!

Hey guys/gals, I just got word from John (owner of the track) that he WILL have the lights on in ONE lane during the 60-130 event. In other words if you would like to line up and run a 1/4 mile pass, you will be able to!

See you all on Sat.
Peter

 

AWESOME!!! Thank you Peter!
Matt

 

Outstanding...although watching all the stuff break on the Tx28K video is disconcerting...will the box be dry?

 

Right lane will be wet and for DR's and slicks and this will be the lane for 1/4 mile. Left lane will be prepped and dry and will be 60-130 only. NO change for you Sean, don't worry.
Peter

 

Will it be possible to drive around the water?

 

THERE WILL BE NO WATER IN THE LEFT LANE BOX!!!! If you have drag radials or slicks then you can drive in the left lane and swap over into the right lane if you do not want a burnout.
Peter

 

So I can run both 60-130's AND 1/4 miles in the left lane?

 

Good Luck Chris, it has been a long road for you buddy. Look forward to hearing some good numbers.

Just do it Sean! Wish I could make it out and see the new setup in action. I have my company Christmas Party on Saturday and as co-host I kinda have to show up!! I sent you an email a couple weeks ago maybe it got sent to the junk folder. Hope all is well.


Good luck guys be safe.
