Re: NOPI, MD May 17-18

It's cool. Your post came across a little arrogant. Thanks. No, they judged every aspect. I was there when the judge walked around my car and had the windows down, he saw my interior and he saw my dyno chart on the laptop, I showed it to him. Most people want to walk around at a car show and all and that's cool but I'm in it to compete and I won't leave my car if there's a chance I'll miss the judge.

But yeah, judges take power into consideration. If you have a single cam and it's boosted but the judge has no idea what it's putting out vs. a single that's breaking 350, they'll definitely look at that. It's not just what parts you have but what you've achieved with the setup.

But my entire car is fully done from front to end. There isn't really anything that's been overlooked or is missing.

Did you take 2d?

Re: NOPI, MD May 17-18

cuz there are no pics of my car anywhere on the net and I kinda like that. When people see it on the road they've never seen it b4. And they're like
"OMG, is that your car?" instead of "Oh, Ive seen that its all over the net"

I'm weird but I'd greatly appreciate if you delete them from the page. Thanks man.

Anything faster than 14 needs a helmet, I can see that, but what's this with the kill switch?

You went out to MIR, right? I was out at Capital. The tech let me run but he told me I needed to make sure I had the switch next time I went out. It's in the NHRA rulebook.

Re: NOPI, MD May 17-18

NHRA and IHRA are different and have different rules. never heard of capitol but apparently they're NHRA. Also why at NOPI@MIR pros were only exhibition cuz MIR isn't NHRA sanctioned. Its all idiotic if you ask me.
