Maybe it's the heat. I don't even go to the track this time of year. October it starts to cool down here.
Now if we can just pray Jimbo has traction problems....We may just have a low 11 second battle going on between the 4 of us...haha. What say Jimbo...how about you going with the same diff as Ernie ???

Good grief ERNIE!!! Whats next you're gonna paint it green and yellow?
Do you have anyway to either, dyno, log some runs to look for knock and air fuel? bad gas? bad a/f sensors? Pittman loosened your torque converter bolts when you weren't looking?
Bruce,
that was between you and I....now Ernie is gonna fix it and bust me !!
Are you able to make Bowling Green with your Red Flag Ship ????? It is getting close..about 6 weeks from now !! Are you all thru with mods ?
Have fun guys.
I can't even get Bruce to come over to NJ!lol
Keep us posted.
Don't forget Nov 16th at atco. 10.50 index
Hey Rob,
I need you to make a few passes in my car, so you gotta come to the Fest!
Us Jersey guys need to teach all these smack talkers a lesson!

Pitt, Yep I thought it was traction, and it is a problem, can't get the car to hook at all, just spins off the line...Plus I'm down on power from what, I have no idea...

Ernie
That sux Ernie....can you log it or no ??? We have EFI Live and HP Tuners. Would be more than happy to look it over for you. Was your mph way down or just 2-3 mph from the heat ???
If I whip your azz in BG....I want you running at your best !!!
I only like crippled up girls...they can't get away !!! LOL....
1/2 second and 6 mph.... No I have no way to log it...
I'll just have to pull out some of my .003 lights...
Ernie
Dang Ernie, that is alot of mph. Think maybe its just an o2 sensor gone out plus the heat of summer ? Has to be a tuning issue unless you spun a half a second away.......(I can do that real good now...all thru first gear).
Pitt, So you have the rear end in the car now?? how is it??? The track is 1/8 mile, 330 ft of it is cement, I think I spin the entire 330..
Ernie
Not yet Ernie...supposed to go in tomorrow. I upgraded to the 30 tooth spline awhile back and Mark didn't know it. The gears we ordered were for the 26 tooth.
DTE offered to exchange for us but there is a 4 week wait on 390 gears. They had us send them my pinion and they will alter to fit...1 day turnaround. Now that is service.

Hell Ernie,
that's why your down in mph...you didn't have the rest of the 1/4 mile to make up for the spin...you would be way down on an 1/8 mile track.
That damn vette is fine...go get a beer and relax !!!
