Failure to Fail

Posted by: Paul Huizenga

Well, it seems that the FRR sticker is the lucky charm I needed - Since I put it on, I’ve gotten out of the first round unscathed every time. On 1/25/09, me and Donut went up to Barona for the Wicked Stangs “Mustangs vs the World” event, and I ran in the “10 seconds and slower” index. With the newly-installed Zex wet kit and 50-shot jetting, the car went from 10.60’s to 9.80’s; perfect for sandbagging. Since there were only four cars in the category, it only took two rounds to claim the winner’s trophy, but it’s the first podium finish for this car, so it’s all good…

Nitrous - always a good idea!

Just a brief update to recap some of what’s been going on. First of all, I quit my job as editor of Race Pages at the end of December, and am now experiencing the joys of being a freelancer. So far, so good. Second, I spent some time at PowerTV doing a Zex wet nitrous kit and K&N FIPK installation on my ‘04 last week, followed by swapping on some Steeda upper and lower control arms I had laying around, along with an Eibach Drag Launch spring kit. I’ll try to get some pics up in the next couple of days, and as soon as the video goes up on PowerTV, I’ll get a link going.
