Chad

[Roy Johnson, Jr.]

If my car is done then I see now problem with that. Get to work Bo! :)

[chadtn]

Chad

[Roy Johnson, Jr.]

What kind of roll were you thinking about?

[chadtn]

[Roy Johnson, Jr.]

How long do you anticipate staying on the throttle?

[chadtn]

End of fourth or the end of the road...which ever comes first.

Chad

[Roy Johnson, Jr.]

:)

How fast is that in your car?

[chadtn]

I'm not really sure...With a 3.42 rear gear it should be pretty long though...If I had to guess I'd say it will do 130mph in 4th...maybe someone will chime in that knows.

Chad

[Roy Johnson, Jr.]

That sounds pretty good. Now we'll just have to see if Blownblazer1984 gets my car done in time! I never knew it took so long to hook up a two stage nitrous system. :)

[NOS/86]

it's on your kind of race roy ! don't back down ... and guess what roy he's got 2 more gears to go after that !

seeya eric

[chadtn]

heh...You bring the two stage...I'll bring the fire extinguisher and be the first to offer you a ride home. ; )

And this time you get to push while I steer!

Chad

[NOS/86]

don't let him get to you chad ! he couldn't run 2 turbo's that why it's only got 1 on it ! so do you think he can run 2 stages of nitrous . bahaaaaaaa! he'll blow the welds on the intake ! or the floorboard will fall out . he'll hit it too soon . hahaha

seeya eric

[NOS/86]

i am a ASS !

seeya eric

[Roy Johnson, Jr.]

i am an ASS ! (I referring to NOS/86)

NOS/86, out of everything you said, this was the only true statement.

Hopefully, no one will have to be pushing anyone!

[NOS/86]

it would be nice not to push ! so don't push it to hard and break it .

seeya eric

[Roy Johnson, Jr.]

it would be nice not to push ! so don't push it to hard and break it .

I won't push it too hard. First shot I'll bring in in second gear (spin too much in first). Second stage, well, it'll come on line at some point. :)

I hope the not so rice rocket holds up.:burnout:

IF you read that post in the Knox area you see a guy call MYRX7sux,it must be a trend with Rx7's.

Your still going to get :owned: by Chad and then by me.

Funny I pulled a 1.5 cars on you off the line with just the stock motor and a slipping clutch..... it is only going to be worse with the 150 hp shot and a clutch that will hold a 60 ft.:dropjaw:
I will be posting a pic very very soon of the 297hp Z28 putting it to the 441hp RX7 off the line. :D

And yes Z28 did get :whip2: at Steele by the Rx7,but I did drive my car back home.;)

Dude, you and everyone else I talked to knows that you left before I did from the start. Remember how I couldn't see the lights, so I waited for you to jump, then pursued to bust your ass???

Sounds like you and I will be scheduling some yard time in the near future.

[90-306coupe]

I think we need Rupert T. Jones to make this decision.
(who jumped who @ Steele)

Funny the 2nd time slip you left about .02 of a second after I did.


Yes,we will be scheduling some yard time very soon.

Thanks for validating my point! :)

Let me know as soon as you're ready. I'm almost ready.

Dont piss roy off hes got mace in his purse.:)

[Roy Johnson, Jr.]

Dont piss roy off hes got mace in his purse.

It's pepper spray and it's a damn carry-all!

[chadtn]

Your date can carry that purse while you push. ; )

Were you serious about the two stage? I may just run you on the motor so I'll be around to see the fireworks. heh..

LOL

Kidding about the two stage. Whether you ran all motor or on the hose, you would still be able to see the fireworks out in front of you! :) I might just blow a flame across your hood just for the Hell of it!

Instead of Batman we've got Riceman with his utility purse. ; )

Validating you point, uh no, if you left two hundrends of a second and I put 1.5 cars on you off the line,Damn you are in for a beating when I spray.:D

I get to take mine apart Saturday and put it back together. I may stop long enuff to watch Chad and his :chevy: :spank: you,if the race happens this weekend.

You will be the first to know when it is back together, I will be ready to show you a :tree: .

later:D

[Roy Johnson, Jr.]

We will schedule a time to meet at Steele, when it's more in the evening time. Bring all your buddies and some popcorn, because I'm going to put on a show for them! Unfortunately for you, it won't be pretty. So, buy all the things you can to put on that car and get ready to rumble!

Nothing else needed but the new clutch and full Nitrous Bottle and a rollback for your car.

Your not taking this too personal are you? LOL I am not. I have raced alot of people and lost some and won some don't matter to me as long as I am racing.


You need to do alot more home work on the LS1 Fbodys if you think my car is not as quick in the 1/4 mile as your RX7.

I am just telling you the facts.If every thing was perfect for both cars reaction,traction, gear changes the race will go either way from a dead stop.

My times are not accurate representations of the 7 with my set up. For example, a buddy of mine - basic set up as mine - at 20 psi runs 6.86 @ 101 in the 1/8th and 10.76 @ 128 1/4 mile. It is a street car, no differences. Does this mean I'll run those exact times? No. Does this mean I can't run better than 11.7x? No.

Bring that ass to Steele for an updated elapsed time! I'm not mad. Just don't get your hopes up!

So this means you suck a whole lot worse as a driver than we thought ?????

20 psi is 3 psi more boost than you run pretty big difference in set up,and yes I know you can run what 28+ on a 3 bar and race gas.You have better bring more 11.4x's to Steele.

I have friends hitting in the high 10.9x's on the same Nitrous and motor set up as mine but there cars are stripped of all weight.

I don't have my hopes up it is going be a fun race win or loose!I will bring my low budget,daily driven, auto cross winning Z28 to the strip and we will play.

At least we have some other people posting,it was starting to get boring on here we could have just passes emails back and forth talking smack to each other.

The 7 I'm talking about weighs basically stock, like mine. 3 psi is about 60 rwhp.

Emails aren't as fun and everyone else wouldn't be able to enjoy the smack!

I would have tought 3 psi was worth more than 60hp on a built engine.

I agree,more fun than email.

If you car breaks this time, I am running the roll back (with your Rx7 on it) off the road, that way you want sink any more money in the Rx7.

When are you going to mod the Talon? Keep Scooter away from that car he may part it out for you.:D

Bwahahaha, too funny.

[Roy Johnson, Jr.]

It requires more psi to achieve HP than it did, say, when I was only making 300 rwhp. The jump from 500 rwhp to 600 rwhp is approximately 10 psi (20 psi vs 30 psi).

[Roy Johnson, Jr.]

My car is ready! YEAH!

Chadtn, you're going down! :)

[chadtn]

Someone quit at work yesterday...So I'm going to be working all this weekend. I can sneak out of work about midnight...We'll have to get it over with because I'll have to go straight back to work.

[Roy Johnson, Jr.]

DAMN! Midnight!? You know I'm almost too old for that! :)

Let us know for sure ASAP so we all aren't just hanging around out in the cold (unless we find a warmer place to meet).

[chadtn]

Want to meet up some where and do it during the day? Know of any wide open places with no traffic?

I have to be at work by 7pm...But I'm willing to travel if you know of a good spot. There's a crappy little road I've raced several people on in Soddy. It's not smooth at all...But it's over 2 miles straight on with no ditches, turn offs, and hardly any traffic. Some of you guys have probably seen it...It's right next to the free way and the ONLY turn off on the road is a little horse ranch...At least I guess that's what it is.

Chad

[Roy Johnson, Jr.]

Exactly how rough is it? It is ok for 130-140 mph?

[chadtn]

I have a video of me driving my 93 Mustang all motor vs my Camaro 100% stock on that road...You can check it out and let me know what you think.

http://members.aol.com/ionatn/cool.zip

Chad

[Roy Johnson, Jr.]

That road appears to be fine. I would rather do that road during the day, rather than night.

[90-306coupe]

Roy if i were you id run that POS in the ditch for insurance collection too.

[Roy Johnson, Jr.]

Roy if i were you id run that POS in the ditch for insurance collection too.

I feel the seriousness in that comment. :rolleyes:

[chadtn]

That'll work...What time do you want to meet up? Want to meet up some where about four and head out that way. It takes me about 20-30 minutes to get there from East Brainerd...It just depends on how bad the traffic is.

My mom's house is about five minutes from that road...You can follow me over there and we can heat up my bottle. We can grab my little brother to man the camera too. ; )

Chad

[90-306coupe]

what the hell does that mean?

[Roy Johnson, Jr.]

My mom's house is about five minutes from that road...You can follow me over there and we can heat up my bottle. We can grab my little brother to man the camera too. ; )

That way, after you video the race, you can post it with that video of your Mustang beating your Camaro and you'll have two videos of your Camaro getting smoked! :burnout:

Email me a number to get in touch with you tomorrow: rjohnson@ocsonline.com .

BTW...Here's a video of my 100% stock Camaro ON THE SAME road vs an 87 GT with an off-road h-pipe and flowmasters:

http://members.aol.com/ionatn/cool3.zip

Chad

[Roy Johnson, Jr.]

Boy! You really dusted his ass in that race! :)

So, how bad do you expect to beat the 7?

[chadtn]

Here's my Camaro all motor with the lid and cutout open...vs a nitroused 4 banger and 3.8 Camaro.

http://members.aol.com/ionatn/motor1.zip

Chad

[Roy Johnson, Jr.]

Cool. Another sweet ass busting handed out by Chadtn!

So, how bad do you think you'll beat the 7?

[chadtn]

I think it should be a very close race Roy...You definately have more top end pull, a lighter car, and better gearing. Our mph's are very close too. It's going to come down to how long I can stay ahead. Our mph's at Steel were very close. We'll just have to run them and find out.

I've never drove one, but I've heard turbo cars are a BITCH to get spooled up and launched right. All I've got to do is keep the car straight and not miss any gears...Don't get too excited and blow your launch! ; )

Chad

[superramvette]

Chad you are going to LOSE!!!!!!!!!! Wanna make a bet? Your Camaro is SLOW POS!@

[NOS/86]

Hell eric all ya got to do is ask him, buy him a purse, compliment him on his car or take him to dinner at friGAYS and he will do the same for you.

[chadtn]

He said he'd call me about 3:30 and figure out where to meet up at. I think we're going to do it on that little road in Soddy that the videos were made on.

My little brother is going to film the race...But if you want to see it in person you can give me a call at 421-6136 some time after 3:30.

I might need to borrow some tires from someone if I can't get in touch with Kevin.

Chad

[NOS/86]

if it goes down (the race) and you haven'y heard from me by then . give me a call at home . please . thanks

You don't need any special tires to smoke an RX-7! Come on out as you are. :)

Pick on the slow Z's from a dead stop but dont dare race BrentB.

Or Roy will get owned:)

Yeah I heard they went from a 40 roll. That's all Roy right there. I say they need to go from a 15 roll whenever they have more time.

[NOS/86]

i think so to . plus chad said he only had 600lb's of bottle pressure . (i) think a slower roll and more pressure . roy would get wasted ! bad !

so shawn how many losses is that ??? would that be 2! i don't think roy can race ether me or you ! (hehe)

seeya eric

[Roy Johnson, Jr.]

so shawn how many losses is that ??? would that be 2! i don't think roy can race ether me or you ! (hehe)

Actually, the count is zero (for what we're doing) - regarding racing a car that I can't beat at all. I've beat every car I've race at least once.

[02GTMaMa]

Details....I want more details! :tongue:

[Roy Johnson, Jr.]

Details....I want more details!

Go to the thread called "Who won? Z vs. 7 ."
