he busted a 10.24@128 in the finals against norris.
still on gasoline...damn
props to erick and javier from ericks camp who took 3rd(10.7)

 

WOW, that's impressive. These guys are gonna be able to compete in the quick class pretty soon!

 

Now he just needs to add a little weight and run NHRA. That's where its at.

 

What do you mean Tony, a 10.24 is good enough for quick class a lot of the time. Thats pretty sick....I guess they are a bit lighter though a not stock chassis cars like the quick class. Still sick though.

 

I thought they switched to Methanol awhile back...saw a post by doug

Suprdave

 

Is there any other results posted up yet???

Damn 10.24 @128...wonder what changes they made

 

 

Just shows, you don't need a deckplate, and a huge displacement motor to be the fastest.

I am glad we have him in the game, his motor is totally different than 95% of the competitors.

Nice to see everyone doing it their way.

CONGRATS>

Thats fast,.

Jeff

 

His motor is different and I think the better way to build an all motor race car. He relys on reving the motor super high and keeping the rotational mass to a minimum with a better rod ratio. Its not gonna make you the power and torqe down low, but hes gonna beat you on the top end.

 

just to add.........Bisi's SOHC went 10.77.......

 

Thats pretty unreal for a single cam. Props to him as well. There was also a guy out there that went 10.80 named Javier. He has a 94 black civic hatchback and thats still on gas as well. No big name sponsor either.

 

I love Ericks car

Doesn't Javier run under Ericks sponsorship? His car is on Ericks website.

Ericks car is so not like everyone elses...

 

What does Erick rev to like 10,200 RPM's?

 

There is a vid on his site I think it was 11,000rpm

I keep my fingers crossed going to 10

 

Of all people you had to say that.. LOL. Still sticking with the SOHC eh Mista?

But props to Bisi.. Damn... I know some turbo ones that can't touch that.

 

What did Norris run in the finals?

 

Prayoonto ran slow on the last run, I think tranny gave way and he just cruised it. Ninesecrx, I was surprised not to see you there. But saw your buddy with the silver crx.

 

Don't know them that well. Just pitted with them once in the STR trailer

 

i belive they tried it for two events but the problems of running meth weren't worth the mininmal gains....props to erick's racing.... glad to see norris doesn't own that title anymore.

 

Javier went 10.78 then 10.80, which is fairly impressive considering the faster cars were on methanol. I think that's the second or third fastest time ever run on race gas for an All Motor Honda.

It's a pity the FWD NSX engined civic did not run. 1800 lbs seems very light for that combination.

Palmdale next weekend will be interesting. Erick needs to beat Shawn Geers to win the national title, which looks like a big call since Shawn was consistently 0.15s faster last time they ran together, and the VWs lose less time at altitude than the Hondas (for some reason).

 

I, too wanted to see the signal civic run. They just kept snapping axles run after run. I hope they'll be in Idrc finals next week.

 

way to go erick ... he should take geers out no problem, his 60' is all he needs to watch out for.

Greg

 

that's great to hear. I'm glad L'natural lost the title...those guys are cocky and conceited

 

...and they're on here.

 

The 'L'Natural' team were the only Cocky ones...

Norris and Crew 'Type R Racing' were pretty kewl dewd...I talked to the crew and they were all cool as hell, especially the big white guy (Dont remember his name) he was knowledgeable as a ************. They didnt have prob with pics being taken.

I think the reason that the 'Lnatural' team was trippin about pics was because of their Suspension setup which was integrated into the chassis\cage. It was pretty trick...I got pics, but I wont post them. Noone is using a suspension setup like that.
