  1. I use 3m glue and zip ties have not lost one yet.
  2. what tran is ogp running suck to break the trans
  3. so how much motor does it take to go to 200 mph in one of the other posts you had the car at the tuner but did not tune it to its utmost why
  4. the old water pumper are cool. that was the car in the day
  5. I don,t think that you half to have the deepest pockets. Just a well tuned car if the motor is tuned and so is the suspension than i think the car will do were good and hold its own. As aposed to a car that has all the power and no suspenion and no driver . the driver is most of the equasion in my opion.
  6. I have been told it is hard to go past that point at 170 my friend mike ryan has the record in a semi truck at the flats and picks peak
  7. Pete I hope he make it past the 200mph out there it will be in a controled invirament
  8. the part of flyinRyan for the land speed record is doing it safely has to be done with no one around geting it going is one thing stoping it with people allround is another with out running over someone going fast is easy big HP tall gears and lots of room Stand on it and hold on :xmas1:
  9. that is my thoughts to. to say I,m in the top ten is pretty big
  10. got tools and socks but the best gift was a nerf gun to shoot the kids.
  11. I would agree to that^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ . But to say you have a top car in the dunes you would have to go up against all the cars out there in all the differnt classes and doing all the thing that are there to do. 1 hill shoot 2 run threw the dunes as fast as you can with all types of cars 3 putt around (go threw the wash and out in the dirt must go both ways sand and dirt ) 4 walk up a hill about half way stop and than stand on your car as hard as you can and see if it goes or just shat it shelf I don,t think you can put a number to your car as a to car like this. some cars are fast as hell and some dune better than most not all cars are set up the same and to do the same things. so to put a # to your car than mine must be #3 in the broke class as to date I have only got it to stay toghter for a day and a half.
  12. so how fast do you have to be to have a top 10 car at the dunes. how do you now you have a top 10 car if you have not raced all the cars that go to mother D on different weekends. now I know hp to weight ratio on halloween there was a red car out there that was spoting most car 3 or 4 car and kicking the shat out of them I also seen a subie kickin the shat out of most any car that lined up with him.
  13. I use my drink as the basies of the tip and I tell the server as much if the class is empty for more than a minit the tip goes down each time it is empty this way they now what they are working for.
  14. our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family
  15. you said food was there cleaning up the dune ??????????????????????????????????????????????? isn't food for dumont??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? or is this differnt then fodd just asking
  16. Bob I was on my way to the meet and greet when I broke the spiders at comp saterday at 1:15 and did not get there witch made the wife mad that we had nothing else to ride so now we are looking for a golf cart or somthing like that. Rhonda Hill rings a bell with us. I would not buy a holly 950 again nor would I say they are good.The guys at westec did all they could do to it and the nozles are to small for the 4.3 that we have and it was the one that was recamended buy the tces at holly so if we do anything more to it we have to steep up the nozels. the car ran the best it has ever run. It cost Dave 45,000 for the halloween weekend. 1. $600 dyno 2. $450 new paddles 3. $3200 new trans 4. one new Dodge Truck
  17. Like Pete I will do what I can but lets see FODD take the lead and I think we as duners will jump in and help and do are part and take up roles as needed. Sign me up and I will donate
