Hahahahahahahh, Scott, you crack me up brother!!!!! I am going VERY conservative with whitey and 700 rwhp is all I plan to run on her. Time to "cool down" the racing gig for me! 
Sean - thanks bro!

That is SOOOO true!
The one time I raced Peter in my little 600 rwhp car he was "claiming" to only be putting 850 down. To make matters worse, he took off before the third honk (didn't even have the courtesy to give me the jump) just so that he could put 6 car lengths on me instead of 4.

Sean, don't worry bud, I feel the lack of love...not one call from you, Tommy, Dennis, Paul, Soroush, (insert name here). I'm no longer loved, but it's cool... 
Speaking of Paul...today, I go to Westside Tennis and Fitness to meet my wife for lunch and who do I see?????? You guessed, ol' tweety himself. He's coming to the event...will he be running? That I dunno. I will have my white in 700 rwhp mode, so it should run dead even with you and Paul...
ihatepotholes - the records are:
Automatic transmission - 3.93 Supra
6-speed transmission - 4.51 Supra (I ran that time in my old car)

Sean - lol, you crack me up Sean! No one EVER saw my old black car on "KILL", hell, it was scary enough at 850 rwhp. That 6 was more like 10, but who's counting? HAAHAHAH Whitey and your silver beast should run head to head...
ihate - the auto is indeed a TH400 car with a gear vendors O/D. He was putting down about 950 rwhp or so. My old black car ran the 4.51 at 850 rwhp or so. The shift from 2nd to 3rd killed me as it had to be delicate as the tires were still spinning. I think the shift took me 0.3-0.4 seconds..... Had it been a 3rd - 4th gear shift it would have been more like 0.2 seconds as I could keep my foot planted.

Going to try to figure out whats wrong with the car today. I've been driving it some the last few days but haven't really got on it to much. It feels REALLY slow and I think I know what the problem is... and its not good (not like motor blow up, but just other issues that are a pain to replace..)
I'll know more this afternoon. Hopefully its just something small, but the more I think about it if the boost controller was broken it would act like the BC was off (which is 17psi) and it was makeing 13psi when I went into 4th vs Paul. So it's got me worried...

!!!!I will say that Peters old black car never saw "kill" on the street though, just never enough traction to hold it.
Peter have the wifey check on plane tickets for this weekend, maybe I'll fly in.

To the top for Wed.
Have the bumper and intercoolers off and replacing the spark plugs right now. I sent Matt and Zac out to test drive the car and Matt's exact words was this car is a TURD right now. He said it didn't feel much faster than when it was a Stage 2, and he's driven it when it was makeing big HP so thats what bothers me (because I thought maybe I was use to the car)... Hopefully its something small because if it is the clutch going out I'm really screwed
Hopefully I'll be ready for Saturday if not I'll just be there hanging out. I want my 6sec 60-130!

Powell - that the slug ready and quit making excuses...low humidity, high 70's and a sticky track for this saturday night, your 6 is waiting for you!!!!!!!
Scott - LOL, damn, that just ain't right! This car is DEFINATELY much slower than my old car (I think it will do a high 5 60-130) but man, it's fun to drive! Next year for TX2K9, you need to make ALL the events with your beast!
