Great day to go racing

[OrangeChevyII]

Had a hell of a time today, went FAST, tranny worked great, huge back fire through the carb, loaded up and went home. :D

The Edelbrock heads are junk I tell you!!!!!!!! :eek:

I WILL CLAIM TO HAVE THE BADDEST STREET CAR IN THE DFW IF YOU THINK YOU DO, LETS RACE! :eek:

[ThreeFingerPete]

what do you consider a street car?

[truestreet5.8]

Yes it was a very nice day for racing. Looks like the rest of this week will be nice as well so hopefully it don't rain Friday because I sure need my racing fix.

So spill it, how slow...errr fast did you go? :) j/k

Your close now though. It will all be worth it once you feel that new found power under your right foot. ;)

[Juiced4V]

bad ass day at the belly

yep and i'm going to try and go out and beat your AOD record :p , before Brooks gets his running :(

[OrangeChevyII]

I have been faster today then I ever have befor, good part is the car has tons more left in it on the tune it has. Lots of TTT5 cars out today, lots of good heads up racing. Im excited about the times, cant wait to go back with a better tune. Car left great, went straight as an arrow, looked like the wheels barley touched the ground most of the way down the track. Hell I dont need to put the wheelie bars on now, its nice not pulling the wheels at all actually. ;)

[Super Coupe]

I snapped this picture.

Damn good picture, should have seen the front view of me squinting my eyes thinking this is it......lol

[jon_king]

those front wheels don't look like street wheels, they say "not for street use" on them don't they??

so what do you call a street car...

[Super Coupe]

Damn good picture, should have seen the front view of me squinting my eyes thinking this is it......lol

Yeah I have a raw file of that picture that shows all the detail and when you zoom in on it, it looks like you are ducking and you can see the heat waives from the flames.

[OrangeChevyII]

So what the wheels say not for street use, catalytic converters come on every 1975 and up car, 99% of the cars at the track and on this site dont have them. Does that not make them street legal?

Just cause I prefer what looks the best in my opinion doesnt mean its not a street car.

Street cars are driven.....regulary. They have tags, legal inspection stickers, insurance on them. They are drove often, come down 80 here in Forney and watch me DRIVE my car to work 27 miles one way, watch me drive my car to the Garland GTG at Sonic. Watch me get pulled over and get a ticket cause my tailight doesnt work when it falls out.

Come sit in a traffic jam with me while we listen to my radio, its kinda sucks having one speaker but you can still here it. Have rear seatsd like me and we can take more then just one passenger any where you wanna go. My car is not geared low so we can cruise down the road at 2700 rpm and roll about 64 mph.

If you can do all this, then you have a street car! If you cant, I race tubbed out back halfed cars all the time and bust their ass. Come and get some.

[OrangeChevyII]

Just to let you know, I burned 5 plugs and went faster then your time..... :p

[jon_king]

[OrangeChevyII]

I need to do some maintenace on the car, I am going to do a compression check and a leak down on the heads. The pass befor the plugs looked bad. Seriously, I burned 5 on 1 pass. :( The car is going to fly when I get the tune right, hell it flys now. Its going to go faster then I planned on it going is for sure.

Yeah I have one. I need to see if I can brighten it up in photoshop real fast. I had my light meter setting on the wrong thing and a lot of my pictures turned out dark.

[Super Coupe]

Here is the best I could do with it. I'll get a better one next time.

[OrangeChevyII]

he hit the guardrail about a month ago at the creek... caved in the driver side door pretty far, but he was back the next week with it fixed...

when he got back to the pit this time, he said " at least the door is ok"

[way2fast4u]

The last time I talked to him he was selling it. He ran it one time in the KOTH.. That car was really nice..

I went with him when he bought the small block car that he just sold.. It had a completely different smallblock back then.. This one is really nasty..

As for the Blue car Hell Who knows. That man goes through cars like most people do underwear..
