It was awesome watching hime hit 11.8 :tu: . On one launch it looked like his front wheels came off the ground :eek2:. I got a pic of his 11.8 run, as well as mine (12.40) and some other pics from today.

I'll post them up once I find the usb cable for my camera :hammer:

Adam.... was this with the 4lb or 6lb? cuz if its still with the 4lb, then when you slap that 6 on there... then wow!!!

[FRDRCING]

Congradulations Adam and mike on the Runs you guys had :tu:

[StormShadow]

4lb lower and 2.80 upper. I figure with front runners, 6lb lower, and a new maf I might hit 11.70????

[True Blue Aggie]

Were you running your race fuel setup?

[StormShadow]

Yep.

[True Blue Aggie]

Damn cold....I wish I would have went yesterday. I have a new race fuel tune that I want to try out.
Right now though I need the fuel and new set of slicks, at least. I need to get the race fuel setup dyno'd so I can find out where the A/F is going to be at.

Does Terry have fuel canisters? Worse case I will go and pick one up from Lone Star Perf. next week....

[StormShadow]

He has loaners. Otherwise you can just go to Walmart and buy two 5 gallon jugs for like 5$ a piece.

[sonicbluetommy]

Congrats Adam, we all knew it was coming after those runs at Hallsville.

Have you added anything since then or was it just the mucho colder weather?

[StormShadow]

I haven't added anything since then and it was only 58 outside so I dunno what it was. They prepped the track good though.

[BC Lightning]

and there was a strong head wind :burnout:

[03LightningRocks]

58 is not much colder than it was when we all went to Hallsville. Track prep means alot. You looked to be cutting some bad ass 60's. 1.6xx's is darned good. Maybe the air was a bit drier......maybe the driver was staying in the groove better as he went down the track.....maybe this, maybe that....LOL....what ever it was...you are now in the 11 second club on a 4lb lower....:tu: .

[03LightningRocks]

I just took a look at your previous best.... 1.73 sixty. Yesterday.... 1.66. I would say somebody was doing a better job on the launch. That alone was enough to drop your E.T. at the end of the track by at least a tenth.

[02BOLT]

Hey, I did it with a 2lb lower.:evil




Just messin' with ya bro. Hey, it's pretty dadgum impressive that you ran in the .80's with a 4lb 'er. I think with a 6 'er and a lil' Artic air, you may get 'er in the .60's!:tu:

At any rate, what you've already achieved with a ported blower and 4lb 'er ain't no punk! As I said before, my hat's off to ya.:bows

[00Bolt]

congrats again bro!!! thats just awesome!! im jelous.....

[WA 2 FST]

Awesome times Adam and Michael! :D

[Alpine]

Great times fellas.:beer:

[StormShadow]

Thanks guys. I was pretty stoked to say the least. I will admit though I was kinda bummed at first. I saw the 1.6 60' while I was running down the track so I knew I had a good run and I saw that I was over 110mph at the end of the track. Well since I was the first one to make a pass the woman that hands out the slips didn't have the printer turned on. I found out I had run an 11.9 but since I had no slip I knew nobody would believe it and truthfully I didn't know if I would be able to back it up. Fortunately the people printed me off a page in the tower and I did back it up.

BTW Michael where are the pictures.

Side note: There was a silver Mercedes V8 4 door that came in and drove straight up to the staging lane. Didn't do a burnout or anything and ran a 12.05 on the first go. He then backed it up with an 11.9. :eek: :bows

[r1eater]

gotta love those amgs

[BC Lightning]

dont worry adam the pics are coming, i have to pick up a new usb cable for my camera since i seem to have lost mine :hammer:

[jcblack]

Congrats Brotha

Oh, and great times Adam:tu:

[sonicbluetommy]

I raced a AMG CLK55 sat. night. We never got a chance to go from a door to door drop but that mutha kept up with me every time I got ahead of him and I could only keep up with him whenever he got in front. And I have my cold weather tune in right now.

[00Bolt]

LOL Yea Scott doesn't have a chance and won't be seeing them for awhile!!!!:nono:


why does a thread giving Adam props turn into a bashing scott thread? thats funny to me.... and why will it be a "while" before i hit 11s.... it doesnt take time... it just takes money.... i could already be there next weekend.... i could be there right now... ya never know!!

[03LightningRocks]

I think it mostly revolves around the fact that you have called Adam out in this forum on more than one occasion. We are just giving you some good natured ribbing back.

Rocks:cool:

[00Bolt]

ya i hear ya... i even went as far and called us "rivals" but its all in fun... everyone likes a little smack talk... one of these days very soon Adam and I will get that first official race and I want it videoed cuz the one and only time we raced, i did my one and only red light and adam ran a 16 sec or something cuz it was official race....
