yeah that shit was retarded, really pissed me off. Thanks to everyone for stopping for me. I need to get that pedal permanently fixed!!!! I ran Emily on 394 once at about 80% throttle and an .875 IAM (ECU was on it's way to retard mode) and walked her good though :D

Re: Old Chicago - every Weds @ 8pm in Plymouth
 

Just a thought, you could attach a pedal pad to the firewall. Just make sure to find one that's 9 pennies high.

Don't believe anything that kid says. Has he shown you a dyno graph? He said he dynoed it at John Haley's.

Re: Old Chicago - every Weds @ 8pm in Plymouth
 

Wouldn't it be better to store your car with a full tank of gas with Stabil in it so the tank doesn't rust? I would think that would be way better. And if you drive the 1G, holy sideways launching batman. My quest doesn't even get that much angle, haha.

Re: Old Chicago - every Weds @ 8pm in Plymouth
 

Can't accuse him of babying that car, that's for sure.

Re: Old Chicago - every Weds @ 8pm in Plymouth
 

Yep, do this. Gas has so many additives these days that it stays fresh much longer than it used to.

Re: Old Chicago - every Weds @ 8pm in Plymouth
 

I'm amazed it left there in one piece.

Re: Old Chicago - every Weds @ 8pm in Plymouth
 

Yea, that's my heap of junk... That's with a gentile 4500 Shepard style slip too.... need wider tyres.

The only time that car comes out of the stable is when it's going to be whipped.


Dumb question I realize, but I'd like to be sure: does E85 last as long as E10 when stored?

Re: Old Chicago - every Weds @ 8pm in Plymouth
 

E85 is hydroscopic, so the longer you keep it the bigger chance it has of collecting water. On a new car it might not be an issue, but if you have a hole or any seepage of any kind that could mean water in the tank.

I'd personally keep an E85 car very low on gas and fill up in the spring.

Oh, and you were good and sideways on that launch before getting onto 494, lol, it was quite funny...my two step was acting all weird rev hanging so I ended up kind of launching behind you and spinning too.

Re: Old Chicago - every Weds @ 8pm in Plymouth
 

hygroscopic

Re: Old Chicago - every Weds @ 8pm in Plymouth
 

Hmmm, really? Interesting as I would've assumed as it collects water, therefore I thought it was hydro, lol. Regardless, thanks for the correction :)

^ No problem, it's a common mistake (especially when people are discussing brake fluid).

Re: Old Chicago - every Weds @ 8pm in Plymouth
 

Thanks for the information, gentlemen. I shall keep her drained until spring.

Re: Old Chicago - every Weds @ 8pm in Plymouth
 

And cigars. :smoking:

Re: Old Chicago - every Weds @ 8pm in Plymouth
 

So since everyone decided to go to the new meet, which is 5 times the driving time and on a night that I work, and will henceforth be called the "inconvenient" meet, is there going to be a meet tonight?

Or are we just going to split up in to little groups that'll never see each other and do a meet every night of the week like MNSC.ghey?

Re: Old Chicago - every Weds @ 8pm in Plymouth
 

I'd like you all to come to downtown Saint Paul so I can walk to the meet. Sound good?

Re: Old Chicago - every Weds @ 8pm in Plymouth
 

I'm out for tonight. Gotta wine and dine my wife to make up for all the $$ I'm spending on my car. Happy wife, happy life!

Spaz i don't enjoy 45min drive each way or using a 1/4 tank to go to meets with no fun time included.

I'm not totally against it, but it was nice to meet up for a bit and then be home within 20 mins.

Re: Old Chicago - every Weds @ 8pm in Plymouth
 

we will be back next wed. I just have not had any money to go out on weds

Re: Old Chicago - every Weds @ 8pm in Plymouth
 

I'm out I have ribs on the grill and beer in hand.
