I haven't been up there in years!

 

Id just like to get a spot big enough for the 4 of us together in the pits

 

Greg is gonna be taking pictures, who else is gonna be running?

 

Just me u and petey then

 

I'm the reason we've got to stop at the softball game for Jim's "little sister"

She's 17 and very cute. That's all I've got to say about that.

And now I'm southbound. See you guys in a few hours.

 

Drive carefully and watch out for road hazards!

 

Good Morning All......


Hope everyone has a great day!

 

Morning Steve, how was the gtg?

 

It was fun, first run went up against a F250 2wd 6.0, second run was up against a Subaru WRX sti, third was a F250 4X4 7.3, and fourth was a Lime Green Lamborghini......

All my runs were around 17.5 consistently....


#1 17.779 78.86 MPH 2WD vs 16.408 87.44 MPH 6.0
#2 17.505 78.31 MPH 4WD vs 13.612 101.03 MPH SUBI
#3 17.482 78.78 MPH 2WD vs 15.530 85.52 MPH 7.3
#4 17.461 78.99 MPH 2WD vs 12.111 121.97 MPH LAMBO


I think my RT was improving with each run!

I'm gonna try the 93 Octane tune, run with less than 10 gallons of fuel and take all my tools out of the back, I had almost a full tank of fuel, and maybe 100lbs of tools in the back.

It just seemed I hit my max across the board, so maybe a little lighter might bring a little improvement, but keep in mind Blue weighs nearly 8K lbs, the 7.3 F250 was around 1K less and the 6.0 2wd around 1.5K less.

I'm gonna go hit the scales before I go up to the work GTG up at Jim's this morning just to get a better idea how heavy Blue really is.

 

evening all!

 

You and your excuses, Steve.

If anyone has wondered what it sounds like when 30psi is released instantaneously this is your chance. Blew an IC boot.

Steve got the pants beat off him by a Lambo. Of course all of us would've but he was the only one to run against it.

And special thanks to Sarah the cute camera girl even though she's not on FTE...

 

No excuses Pete, just facts....I wasn't disappointed in my 17's....

 

Morning everyone, I've been calling the laundry fairy all weekend...but she won't return my calls. Anyone heard from her?I know what 35 psi off a 3406E sounds like. Sounded like a shot gun blast when the CAC pipe blew up and hits the hood. To say it lost power all the sudden, would be an understatement.

 

Here is one of the pictures that Kaleen took......

 

Very Cool Guys!!!!
