she gonna be at the mile next month?
I was going to go and Drag race it , but the Texas Mile is the priority now , and it look like its going to rain this weekend anyway .
This little engine really comes up on the pipe and start making really good power around 4000 and really start to scream at 5000, all the way to 6000 rpm’s but because of the VP style pump and a glitch in the tune , it would go in to limp more at about 4200 and force us to shift. So the good part of the power band was wasted , it will literally blow the street tire off in 2nd and 3rd as it comes up on the pipe
must be what you think about , but not non users
on the road home now , and we are pleased with Project X Diesels " The Beetle " . its been a long week, we didn't get all of the parts untill wensday and thursday. The little motor saw fire 6am saturday morning , and we drove all day and night to get to Muncie ariving with 47 seconds to spare.
there is a lot more in it , ill write more when I get on the road in the morning
thanks everyone for making this happen

It's a crying shame someone didn't have the courtesy to actually do this. But he's arrived on our shores now, and it's apparently too late to put the genie back in the box.Looks like Greggy Poo is making some new friends. I wonder who may warn them of them impeding doom of boring post, advertisements, bogus claims and other various crap.

Here we meet our new best friend, and he starts picking our collective brains. Apparently in the beginning we have only one brain between us, but we'll learn:

Some of us have our own 'pet' name for him. Modesty, decorum, polite and proper upbringing, and good taste forbid me from uttering that euphonious appellation in public (or at least here, where this is my first post), but I'll give you a hint -- it starts with a capital D, has 7 letters, and is sometimes used in its more formal form ending in bag . . .
Hi Justin,I knew I'd find you here LCR!
With all due respect, don't take this wrong -- I'm not bashing TDICLUB in any way -- I'm just stating a fact.Welcome to Comp D fellas.
I don't mind you guys disagreeing with Greg at all. We welcome healthy debate here. Do me a small favor and lets leave any ill-will towards other sites there. At Comp D, we try to keep the "Other Site" bashing to a minimum... It doesn't help to make horsepower LOL
