It is all in fun and I knew what you were meaning about coming down. Guess what I'm getting at is your still just getting started with your car. you might get on the Dyno and the motor may pop. Or you might get to the track and can't get the car to work the way you want or it might be slower then you expect. That's the kinda stuff that you got get past before you say that you already KNOW you'll be ready to street race proven 9 second cars , just because you've made some driveway pulls and you've blownoff your bov a couple times. But yes this summer is going to be a blast! Lots of "potentially" beastly cars will be out ,yours being one of them! Absolutely no hard feelings at all my friend |

but anyways..........Ya there is going to be a lot of trial and error for the car i'm sure. I've only gotten a bunch of highway pulls and a couple races with it it and already need to change my rear gear so this wont be the first time i have to mess around with shit. As you know turbo cars are a pain in the ass! I'm well aware that this could explode first pull when its cranked up that's why i have a spare :) So far I have gotten it to 15psi so far but still have some tuning to do. This spring/summer i'll come up to NED even though i hate that track but it would be cool to get together with a bunch of you guys from that area. |
My LT1 will smoke you
|
Sam is putting money down on races:69:
How much we talking? |
We or Sam? Lol
We will talk when its time to race............Now lets not get this all blown up again haha I got a GTR that wants to race me for $1000 bucks but Sam is more than welcome to give him a go..... |
Hahah. I get the Denmah comment too!!! He slaps some shit together and gives it hell.
Your SS came out killer and I would def be proud that you that you built it yourself. I want video of you and Sam this spring!!! LOL |

Cage tacked finish it up tomorrow bought some corbeaus and 5pt harnesses will be ready by friday . A nice birthday present because I'm sick of buying shit for this car! Haha anyone who thinks they can build a nice budget turbo car should get smacked in the head!

I wouldn't suggest putting anybody in the back of a caged car. 1 hard braking and kids can crack there head on the bar. I've seen a few pics before. Hard enough could kill them.
|
I was kidding around. I wouldn't take anyone in the back with the bare cage way too dangerous. I have all the pads if someone does but Nobody would want to fit back there anyways lol its bad enough without a cage
|
looks Awesome! ive still Never understood back seats with a cage...... haha
|
Thanks man! I put them in because its funny. Also these cars look terrible without seats too much room like a friggen El Camino haha
|
What about the bottom bars that run front/ back along the door ?
|
Rocker bars? Or something else? You dont need those if you run subframe connectors according to the nhra book. If they give me a hard time at least its the easiest bars to install and won't have to remove anything but a little paint
|
And these cars SUCK for cages unless your under 6' you will not be happy haha after I finished this I looked around and saw so many threads saying "welcome to the caged 4th gen" and "that's just how ot is" I should of left it cam only lol. :)
|
The biggest downfall is if the main hoop is too low. Pisses me off when you can't use the mirror. Mine is setup so the hoop is stuffed into the ceiling so nothing is in my way for the mirror. Don't really notice the cage with my door bar out.
Really sucks with the door bar and window net. |
Quote:
But the window net and bar with these skinny seats will suck! lol |
Easier to not remove the head liner. LOL
|
Ya I just didn't want to drill holes and drop the cage through the floor but I will do that for the next 3 roll cages I'm doing! Haha easier to weld that way instead of with the small torch.
|
Nevermind that was easier than I thought. :)

Thanks guys just finished everything last night with the cage and subframe connectors it feels so much better I'm amazed!
