well that's that...all cool.. if he says he actually made 635whp then obviously something didn't go right or he was probably testing the car altogether.
no offense if any at all, but when Beeyond first showed up with the Civic Drag Car last year and ran 12.8s@125mph or so a few times through the day some of the people that had some affliation in BCM(V8 guys) laughed and giggled. After those test/tune runs, the next fews runs that came Shut them up...no one talked!!! bow down!!! all the guys in that particular crew was silent... I think we netted low 10 or something of that nature at about 140+mph...............
what i am saying is that don't go on bashing if you are.. if you didn't mean to bash then cool..... sol may have been testing/tuning around with his new setup. things can go wrong and they do in a HIGH powered street race car. no one can deny this. I will consult with sol dude and see what's going on. when it gets down packed which it will, then the haters will be silent again.
NEXT year the import world in the midwest will see one of the fastest ALL MOTOR built here in Wisconsin...

I blew up my tranny before I could put down a time for qualifying in QUick 16 -- oh well. I guess I will have to wait until next year to run the car.

Not bashing on the car at all. I know it is going to move out well as time goes on, but when Mr. Sol posts that it's easy money (cocky) people are going to chuckle when someone posts that before even taking it to the track! A car can put out impressive dyno #'s but that doesn't mean you are going to run good at the track. You know that.

well, i did not mean to come a crossed cocky. but i had on street tires no slicks. wheel spin in all gear. i did not go out to hwy to race just cruse. i wanted to have some fun. if that's the case i would of put on street slick. if you want we can run again with street slicks on? but i need to drive car and test to make sure everything is ok. get the bugs out. at track i ran a 12.9 boging out the hole and lunched to low. and only ran 2nd and 3rd gear(testing). no 4th gear. half track. if you saw 3rd gear you know that car can move. my alt belt keeps on breaking, have to fix the problem and will run again. this was the first time the car went down the track. im not going to do a full run until i fix the problem. i will keep you updated.

That becomes frustating after only a few trips to trackOriginally Posted by 1fastsol
I can run 119 smoking the tires to a 12.9 or 12.1 at 112.
Think I have set GLDs FWD burnout record, from the drop
of the tree well beyond 1/2 track smoke still leaving wheel
wells on return road ;(

i here you. speaking of that man the track had good traction. i lunch at 7400 at 5psi boost and bogged. wow!
I'll say traction was good and damn good!! 1.67 60' with a 2100lbs car runing on 215/60r14 BFG drag radials. Ya the 2 qts of trany fluid I left on the starting line proves traction was good! The starter for the import wars this year loves traction! Personaly i think he just likes seeing the imports break but it makes for a good launch for us who like to blast out of the hole!

I busted my axle on my first attempt.....threw another one on, and traped a 103.9 mph. Didn't have any more axles so I didn't heat up the slicks and only cutted 1.9 60'. Still good enough

Tim my point exactly..... sometimes high powered car can't even make it down the track until all bugs are finalized...Originally Posted by twicks69

btw you owe me $50.00 for that axle.... also remember that axle has lifetime warranty through us... hehe!!!
