They have those mustangs set up great!! Look like they are nice and smoothe to be making that kind of HP.

lol..serious betting and Ribbing...this cracks me up.

You should see an outsider race....heck these guys are friends

LMAO

Brick it would CRACK you up ! and Yes they are very serious..Alot of cash floating around...Now you see why I was giving those knuckle heads grief about being the fastest whatever.

You would really enjoy being here and watching it in person...you ever get this way I will lead you that way and we will hang out....lol :D

Your on, Bro ! We'll have to fire up the bus and make an RJ road trip down !
:D :D :D :D :D

i just love how the cops catch chuck red handed on the street with a straight up un-reg drag car and just let him go..... lmao..... please :P

Yes Tod I can accept race cars run on street. Makes more sense and I think that is what we have been saying all along here on this thread. But Thats not how they are selling the show. They are making people think its street cars street racing or street racing for sure..Its in their title " Outlaw Street ". I watched one show and noticed right off it was filmed on a closed concrete road,Burn out box with 60 ft timer boxes. If they are on an airport runway there would be no need for down track prep. The runways are gooved cut and provide crazy traction. It has to in order land jets in rain etc.
I am not gonna say there are no 4sec cars cause there could very well could be. I am saying I didn't see it the episode I watched and I own and Drive a 4 second door car. I know what they look like. As far as being crazy fast for the street I agree it would be but so far I have not seen them run on street. Your car Tod would be considered fast on street. Most Drag cars would be considered Crazy Fast on the street...I am sure there is some smack talk happening on YB..Always has been. I am sure whoever did not CALL by PHONE the right grudge racer or they would have got their wish. Everybody talks smack on the Internet ( My experience )..YB is king of the smack talk sites.

Oh boy you are not kidding about the smack talk....that thread on YB is pretty comical. One guy challenged ANYONE to come to Kentucky to race and he would smack their azz....but only if it was a stock suspension car with a SBC and a 10" tire....lol


From what I gathered the top 3 or so on that list are in the 4's....saw a video of the Murder Nova going 4.78 at the track. That white mustang that they been showing runs low 5's .....5.20 I think....something like that...they have a few videos of it posted with the ET lights showing. I think they crazy for openly admitting the details of their street racing....plenty of evidence to show a jury in the event they kill somebody one day....just my opinion cause many of em talk openly on YB about it and now their real names are tied to their Internet names...

Not to change subject. This fathers day weekend I stumbled across a reality show called CATFISH. It was founded by a guy that was in a online relationship with a girl who turned out not to be who she said she was. So now people contact him about their online relationships to where they have never met the person..some turn out to be dudes,their friends all kind crazy stuff.
Be who ya wanna be on internet LOL.

Lot of that crap goes on these forums as well.

Part of the reason I have had a select few of forum members to my home not only because I like them but also to prove I am who I say I am. Yes I have been jokingly teased in past about certain projects etc. It was all good I laughed with it then validated it fairly quick. In the PAST is the reason I posted a few vids and pics. Not as much now as I use to. If I am close enough to you I have your cell and will text u whatever I want or need for you to see. lol :D


The internet is a strange place. Even tried FB for about 60 days and said the hell with this. lol..

Also good to see ya Tod! well see ya post ...lol

I have a buddy who used to search the online dating sites while he was at work, just looking for people he knew....he found one dude we know and messed with him for several weeks pretending to be a hot chic....lol had him going pretty good. Lol

I trust our core group & who they are. Call me naive. I trust you are who say you are Juice. others too... but only the core group.

It would be fun to get together & visit if we were closer. I would love to spend a day on motors, valve train 101/shoot guns, bows, maybe see some of Juices boxing moves, etc.... Outlaw & I could BS all day & have a "Pepsi"... while we laugh about addiction. DD & I would get in trouble for talking too much politics probably. It be fun to go to the track together too. Harb could help me finish building the model he sent my son... & maybe even the one we are building for him too...

Maybe Swiley & Tod could bust out some lawn-darts... we could have roman-candle fights, gas powered scooter agility contests, lawn mower races, & amateur boxing events & arrange a chicken fight too. Think about it. It would be EPIC.

How about some scooter racing :?: :lol:

I saw that Catfish show too Bjuice, that crap is scary! I have faith in the main core of people on here, being stuck in the middle of the country sucks, Scooters on the west coast and it seems like everyone else is on or near the east coast. I do want to try and see Outlaw next year if we drive drown to Florida in the spring, Ken I think you would keep me entertained with stories and a tour of your shop for days!

Yeah its scary but some dumb a$$'s fell for it and got it for being STUPID. I am married but if I wasn't the internet is the LAST place I would try to hook up.

Also today I saw where a bunch of Hells Angels caught a bunch of time by the Feds for guns,dope etc...It wss hete local. I know a bunch of the Angels here in SC...Always been nice to me. A full patch 1%er stopped in front of the house the other day just shootin chit while I cut grass.

street cars
 

I have a respectable 70 Chevelle 3600 lb street car, It runs great numbers at the track. And as we know the starting line (up to 200 feet out) dictates the quality of the run. I know turbo chargers and super chargers change that a bit, but still holds true. Also NO2 stages affect that ,again the begining of the run is very important. That being said it hard to hook on the street or make a decent 60ft. But I am pretty sure those cars on TV are quick, but to say the fastest in the nation ?? We have some very quick cars running at No Limit Raceway (Morroco Ind)and confident that we could run with them.

THAT would be a PERFECT time for you two rowdies to start on your BOOK !
:D :D :D

Wow Harb that is scary.... that has to be in an Asian country... any one of us could bust out the kids YZ 80 & spank em???

I met a chic on the internet about 12 years ago...she lived about an hour south of me...when I met up with her at a truck stop, she smiled and her teeth were all black and rotten.... :shock: She said to follow her to a local bar so we could have a drink...I said sure. she turned left...I turned right....right back on 65 NORTH

LMAO..long before internet. Their was a receptionist that would answer the phone at a business I had to call on for Alarm confirmations..she sounded SO SEXY..I HAD TO MEET HER !! Got her to meet me at local burger joint...I'm 6-1 230ish and she made me look like a 6yr old and looked like Uncle Si from Duck Dynasty..I would have left bit was only cop in parking lot . Wheww never again !

Been there, done that.

...got the T-shirt !
:shock: 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8)

Ok DD I gotta ask what is the joke about the T SHIRTS? [/img]

You never heard the phrase "Been there done that got the tshirt?"

Ditto. Tod, you go to the local cruise to do a few passes & ya pay the 25.00 to sign up & you get a T-shirt. You buy a bunch of parts @ summit or X place & you get a T-shirt. You become a belligerent alcoholic, go to jail, loose everything you have & you get a T-Shirt. Or maybe you get approached in the grocery store waiting to pay & someone asks you: "Hows your day", "I have a awesome buisness opportunity for you", it's called "Amway" & you say: you are asking the WRONG GUY; I already got the T-Shirt. The T-Shirt is a badge of honor.... it is an earned entitlement... you now carry the T-Shirt because you gave up something you love for a financial commitment... your T-Shirt represents PAIN.... it should be Black. You earned that shirt when you watched the Nova go down the road on a trailer for the last time brutha. I feel your pain.... we all feel your pain... because we have the T-shirt.

I have a t-shirt that says "been there done that"!

Tod its good to see you back :!: :D

Yes guys I do think the show is crap. I bet I can climb to #1 in one night. The only thing is betting for a couple hundred dollars is bs. I have been street racing and grudge racing for over 30 years and still love to be in the middle of it all. I don't street racing anymore, do it all at the track.

Juice would you be interested in running your car at a grudge feast. I've been wanting to ride that way and try some of these guys. I have some guys with big money and sure if they see your car they would have no problem betting on it. I bet if some of the guys on here were to come we would have a hell of a good time.

Robert

wazup never ran in a official grudge feast.. everyone local always knew the car so locking a race local was Out..always ran it in 10.5 races (Steel roof, Qtrs and stock firewall ) way before EXTREME OUTLAW 10.5 everyone knew what the car ran so you know how that goes..


I would LOVE to tell you HECK YA but being 110% honest I am on the back 9 with this 4 second Outlaw racing..Many can tell you on here the family has taken the priority over racing..such as Little League baseball at the "Y". Mattter of fact we still playing in the regional tournament in lower state..

So rather than sit here and make someone believe I am ready to grudge race would be very mis-leding...I have all the stuff right here in the trailer but just not "A" gaming it right now in racing...I will roll it out in the fall when it cools off here in SC to keep bugs away....

Also I been wanting to sell the House for 3 yrs Wife hasn't agreed...but today after seeing some homes in the lower state she has conceded..So I am gonna try and get this bad boy on the market and see if it will sell..another TIME consuming project...

That's cool, I know how it is when everyone knows your car. I still have people talking about a vette I had back in 2000. I grudge raced it all over fla and won a lot with a partner of mine, after running it all over the place could not get a race with out giving up a ton so we sold it in 2001.

I know family comes first and it sounds like you have a lot on your plate. I just thought I would ask. I will hit you up if I make it up that way and see if you have any time and maybe come out and watch.

I hope everything goes well with all your plans.

WELL GOODY....Last night Farm Truck and his Asian buddy had a birthday party for their dog. :roll:

those two have to be butt buddies...... wtf :shock:

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :shock:

murder nova "i got the fastest car in the country" .... how do some of you guys feel about that statement ..... lol

Exaggerated statement for television....but it is a bad mo fo. The show is cool I think....you gotta take it with a grain of salt....scripted drama but at least they are actual fast cars..not that fake fast and furious stuff with the fake wheel stands etc

Make that he's got 2nd Fastest...Mine is faster than his. lol
( Based on ET's I have heard run on track )

Lol I can assure everyone I am FAR from top 300 Fastest in country.....so that really makes him 301 fastest in Country LMAO

Brian this is off topic but I know you have experience with this so I have a question Regarding 10" tires and 10.5 tires.

I understand they run them on wide rims, but I have seen cars with tires claimed as 10" tires or 10.5 tires and they look freaking huge....my old nova had 32x14" slicks and some of these 10" tire cars look like they have more tire than I had....just curious where or how they actually measure them to claim them as 10" tires....or to fit in the rules.

Its measured on the foot print itself. The tire we run is a 10.5w the side wall is wider and the tire is 33 inches tall. If you look up the size difference on a true 10 tire it may go to 29 inches and much smaller side wall...a 15 inch wide wheel is used to flatten out the foot print. Your right Tod looking at a 10.5w tire from the side looks huge..but if you lay down behind car and look at footprint its only 10.5 inches wide.. Hope this helps
