Do you ever see that black crap in the bottom of your fuel jug? I think that I do sometimes. Sorry to hear about the Tranny. I guess you wont be ready for the Firecracker shootout at the KAN this weekend? I am going to Test this Friday at MOKAN and try out my new front end setup. By the way John you...

I am running Valvoline VR1 30W Racing oil. I have been changing mine about every 12 passes or so. I am running a 1050 Dominator #8896 Model. I am always checking the smell of the oil, I am paraniod about the gas in the oil thing. How often do you guys change you oil? The last time I went to change m...

Thanks Steve, I am trying to learn as much as I can. It helps a ton when you communicate with guys like the ones we have on this forum.

I want to say Thank you very much to John Heard and Mike Peters for breaking this topic down for me. I am young so all of this is new to me. I appreciate your guy's time.

Very well explained.

Glad to hear you are giving up a weekend of drag racing to spend time with your daughter. Thats what it is really all about.

Well I hope to get to the good ol' Mokan track for some test and tune in about a week or so.

I would also like to know if he has seen that. And if not then I would like to see the look on his face after he does watch it. Scott is awesome. I have got to know him this year and he is a real cool guy. I cant wait til he works the Demons out of that Beast. By the way, are you planning on attendi...

But I know one thing. I bet when Tim was on the back bumper it didnt look anything like Brents at MOKAN. :shock: That is one of my favorite vids. For those who have never seen Brent Martin gettin crazy at MOKAN.. Here it is. http://www.makotenfive.com/gallery2/d/677-2/martinmokan.mov Just so you guy...

Thats awesome!LOL . Glad to hear ol' Tim is keeping it real in the ol' Black Bird.

Thanks guys for all of your inputs. I have learned alot on this topic. But if there is anyone else that wants to suggest something then please do so. Thanks again This is a burnout done by Brent Martin who is a former MAKO10.5 Racer as of last year. I really miss watching this car. He gets that moto...

Anymore INPUTS ???

From what I have been told..TH400's are the ones that are bad about the 2nd gear sprag going out. And I think that they mean, you dont have to start your burnout in 3rd(because I think that is pretty hard on your clutches and converter), but you want to make sure that you are in third before you let...

Hey guys I have a few questions. I have watched a ton of racers do there burnouts. I was wondering why MOST racers like to spin there slicks IN the water box and then move forward to there burnout. I would think that this would throw water up in your fenders and then drop on your slicks before you l...

I have aluminum heads. But the rest is stock like you said.

But I think that the 47180's will still be the right ones being that is the lowest spring rate I can get for my car.

Thanks
Adam
