My brother ran a best of a 14.4, Adam was having boost controller issues and only managed a 15.0 for the day.

Here's my brother racing one of the SRT-8 Jeeps that was out...

Here is my friend Eric's DSM. He was struggling with a clutch disengagement problem and ran several 13.6's- with 2.7 60' times.

I won't say what he ran (clocks off for a reason) but I'll say it was damn fast and at a high MPH :D

Sweet pics. I can't believe I forgot to talk to you about your bro's car. I REALLY REALLY want a ride in one of those new CSRT-4s since I have a sweet spot for SRT-4s. I haven't been in a new one yet. I'll bet once your bro gets some seat time under his belt he will have it running 14 flat or even a high 13.

Poor eric, DSM is treating him like a DSM. Something is always holding it back. But hey a DSM getting to the track under its own power, making some runs, and driving back under its own power is still a winner in my book. :thumbsup

Yea I have a COR sticker on the back of my car, so I guess they actually listen. Truthfully I usually don't care about my time being posted up... Although the E.T. was a little embarrassing, I was just going for mph to make sure it didn't loose anything power-wise from last year with all the fuel changes I made.

Thanks for the cool pics! I had a great time at the show. Awesome turnout! Prolly twice as many cars as I expected. Obviously you have a lot of good friends out there! I've only met you once (for Fred's party at BW3's last year) but you are an awesome dude. Good luck to you and you're family and hopefully you had a good time too! Thanks again everyone for an awesome time! :)

Didn't your friend Eric drop a better portion of his drivetrain on the track a few years back in that car?

I don't think so... he hasn't had it running in forever, and I'm pretty sure the stock drivetrain is still intact.

Thanks, as for the color I owe credit there to "Dr. Ford" who just refinished the car. Next time we see each other I'll give ya a closer look at the whole car, and take you for a spin if you want... It's a blast on the street.

Hey that's what street cars do :devil

Yea I don't think Eric's car ever left any driveline parts at the track. Although this time it did leave some coolant when an overflow line popped off the reservoir when he was launching. Everyone was pissed about that one since it needed some cleanup. :fire

Yea his clutch wasn't disengaging fully this time around. When he brought up the launch RPMs the car would move forward and trip the lights. So basically he was never able to launch the car. He was getting like 2.5 60' (in his AWD :rolf) with tiny little bogged launches. One he gets the clutch issue sorted out it should be a mid-high 12 second car at like 106ish. Not bad for not too much boost out of a TIRED old motor.

Yeah his car is blowing oil hardcore... he needs to get that 4G64 together and drop that bitch in.

BTW Eric's new "catch can" is my girlfriend's Fanta bottle + some zip ties lol

Nice pictures, The 240 was really moving down the track, I was dissapointed that no time was shown, now I know why.
