Sorry about the oil down.
New motor apparently has really high oil pressure, blew the oring out of the oil filter.

Car was running fine so I didnt know anything was wrong till the drivers side tires broke loose and the car turned towards the wall. Even then I didnt think it was a problem with the car, so I drove to the end.

Completely toasted my turbo, hopefully the enigne is fine becasue I have a 950 mile drive home.

Chuck broke 1st gear in qualifying and didn't have a backup trans, so he ran 1st round eliminations with no first gear. Launched in 2nd and ran a 9.0 @ 169, and killed the trans case in the process. lol

Ya man it was right Just a bad weekend for us all around - Got there late friday to set up and make a test pass on the new set up....ya best 60ft of this cars short life and broke trans going into 2nd gear. ( 1.30am ) Then spent all night swapping parts for Saturday finished up at 8.30 am to find out we also killed a axle. Rebuilt the axle and got ready for qual - went up to run the car and no two step ...... just didnt want to make boost.

Went back and worked on the car till next round and still nothing - made it down with a 11 something enough to get us in the show but barley - 11pm saturday night we find issues with the exhaust manifold. FULL RACE really helped us out and opened up the shop at 12 midnight so we could got weld it up. Back to the track at 7am to put the car back together and get reay for 1st round 11am we roll up and make car finally leaves ok and no 2nd or 3rd gear boost - - - - ya in all the work I didnt have the wiggins on the lip around thhe throttle body 5psi down the track just wont cut it....we lost annd packed up.

This weekend was hard but thats racing already have the car back apart working on it today--

I have to thank a few people they all worked so hard to help we get down the track and Im sorry I could not have done better for you guys !!

CSI - Jason / Charlie .... tools at 2am at the track / turbo housings like it was water and just overall help

Full Race - Jeff / Aaron ... opening the shop and letting us go crazy at 1 am Saturday night at there shop like it was ours

JAMES / KIRK / TONY my guys for working with out sleep for 3 days and never giving up....even when we knew we were beat !!

I was wondering what was going on with the car. Does not surprise me about Full-Race. Those have got to be some of the best guys in the sport when it comes to helping out. Aaron, Geoff, myself and a few others were at the shop all night last year trying to get the bugs worked out of mine and Geoffs car.

See you guys in Palmdale.

Jason
