Same story with Raj he's been going fast for tons of years yet you are comparing my first effort to their latest? But you don't even want to compare your results to other people with similar combos and it's pretty obvious why.

    You don't see the point. I am a no-nothing hack but I will run with you any day of the week and you're the self-proclaimed expert. Crazy how that works! You guys can pile on as many of your buddies as you want but it won't change the facts one bit.
    cool get it done, and i would be glad to hand you your ass. im happy for you that you bought some ones shit, and went slower with it, your next one should be a lot faster, mine will be. Never said i was an expert, but i can build everything my self, with no ones help.


    Return of the mullet machine coming soon

    Huge thanks to the people that help me out

    Sounds like more excuses to me...I never noticed a dollar sign on my win-light but maybe it's just really small.

    btw I was 21 and going to school when I went 8.7 at over 160 mph and paid for everything myself which is why I had to do a lot of it on my own as opposed to having a shop build it. So hopefully the excuse train rolls in with a better line next time.

    Pat and myself built his car from scratch by ourselves. That includes chassis, engine, turbo kit, etc. But we will never use that as an excuse like you guys have to.

    And I think I've seen you talk about a ton of grudge matches but I've never seen you actually race in one. So maybe instead of TELLING me you're a big bad racer you can SHOW me instead.

    I worked as a test technician at Nisshinbo Automotive Corp full-time while also going to school full-time. Even graduated a semester early and still Summa Cum Laude (highest honors).

    Monday - Thurs was 9am-5pm class and then work 6pm-3am.
    Then just class on Fridays. Averaged 35 hours/week of work and 18 credit/hours per semester (BSME).
