very nice...i used to see u out on hwy 100..hopefully we can giv em a run when im back after this deployment

 

Now that is a performance mods list! What sorta power are you cranking out?

 

Yeah I use to live behind Ultimate Truck, that and I use to cruse a lot. I don't really do that on hwy 100 any more. You mostly see me out there from here and there thou cause I work in that area.

 

ya i havent been out there much since 09 i jus used to see u here and there...but hopefully in may 0f 2013 when i get back ill see u around and giv em a run

 

how about some real timeslips this time around

 

Last time I was on a dyno I blew out my dif and snapped an axel. Since then a lot more time has been put into the car along with mods. Don't know the current number right now goal is to hit 400hp or over

 

yeah Im still out there just dont drive the hwy, Last year I only put little over 5,000miles on the car. Sounds good best of luck in the current depolyment that your on.

 

any vids of the balt in action??

 

yes and no. Their more sound clips that I took video with my iphone 4gs cause few people wanted to hear my exhaust. That it really, so no real video's of the car in action, use to have a few on my old LGVx8100 cell phone but, that puppy has long bite the dust. I will have more in the future I'm going to try to get a GoPro Hero 2.

 

That's a good looking car. You should come to a WI meet (if we can ever get one organized ) so that I can get a ride in this baby

 

Thats because its hard for everyone to meet up at a set time with short notice. people have stuff going on, work conflicting schedule, or have families or just dont have the time. I use to do a lot of them but that was years ago. I also don't go far with the car, due to lack there of options for ethanol and methanol. And thank you for the comment
I know just about everyone in the wis thread

 

Except me lol

Yeah one of these days I hope we can plan something out more than just 3 days in advance

 

Lol well I did say know pretty much everyone lol sorry Aaron. I hear ya.

 

Hey do you know a Tim that owns a Monte Carlo SS Dale Earnhart JR edition? He recently moved to Texas, and then moved back up there. He said he lived down the block from "lil Vett" and thats you lol.

l8r,
PD

 

you blew out your diff and snapped an axle on the dyno? What did you do, launch it at 10,000rpms? WTF? I've never heard of anyone doing anything like that on a dyno before. You sure you weren't at the track?

 

No it was on the dyno. My guess is because my trans had over 100,000miles. And I think the axel was on its way out the door prior to going on the dyno and it just happen to fail while on the dyno. It just was timing that they both happened at the same time. Both are fixed

 

Yep I know tim lol he told me a week or two ago that he had gotten a ride in your car. Yeah he lived about 7 mins walking distance from my house.

 

Welcome back Derek.

Its good to see the car back up and running.

 

just like those "nice" fast times on your car. I wish you were local to me id run you in a heart beat

 

Nice derek!

 

Thanks Eric

 

Thanks mike

Looks good! Did the car ever run the high 11 low 12 for the quarter mile thread? I remember the thread but I never saw the result.
