Dudel, what a depressing night!!! First my wastegate goes and I can't boost worth shit, and then......dare I say it? J B weld fails on me leaving me halfway down the track!!!!!! hahahahahahahha needless to say, I will no longer endorse J B weld!!! hahahah (Hey Kev, if you have that Vid, post it up man!!) Anyway, just want to say thanks for first of all the guys that helped me get to the track aka, my sponsors!! haha, like rage2 and max boost (sorry I didn't do as well as I thought I would have!!)

Secondly I'd like to thank the guys that helped push me pretty much off the track!!! Thanks Buhbuh, rage2, kenny, legendboy (I had the shit working fine at 7 psi then got greedy!!:madred: haha), cocoabravo (also, thanks for the band aid haha), Nelson (for not making fun of my set up....in front of my face anyway!! haha) Ed the SOHC (sorry for not following you home as promised, as you could probably tell, I had problems of my own!! haha) and anyone else that helped me out that I missed, thanks for pushing my piece of shit off to the road!! haha.

I'd also like to thank ScCab and buhbuh for driving my ass home when the coulda been at sweet sweet heavens picking up and receiving some nastiness!!! and Lynsi for driving me back early in the moring to pick up my piece of shit as well as legendboy's girlfriend april for sitting in my car while we fucked up my wastegate in line for the races!! Thanks guys

Finally, I'd like to thank the backstreet boys, N'sync and 98 degrees for making all this possible...with you guys, I'd probably be a 13 second car!!:thumbsup: don't you just love acceptance speaches!! hahaha:rofl:

Thanks again guys!!

did he steal it from your beer bong?

Anyways, good to see everything's fine dude. Good thing I told kev to video tape you getting towed off the track...hahahaha. That was definitely your slowest time of the night... I think it took them 10 mins to clean up and get your car off...

haha, I know dude! Fuck, when my car just died halfway down the track, I was like trying to get it started again, meanwhile, spewing gas all over the track. When I got out, I looked under the car and saw a trail of dark fluid and was like shit!!! and under my car there was a puddle of the same shit! I totally thought it was oil, as well, the race city guys came over and said that I leaked oil all the way down the track! Fuck, I'm just so gald that it was gas and not oil, and I'm so glad that it didn't catch fire!!!:eek: Fuck that woulda sucked! And also, sorry to all the guys when I was cranking it and all the fuel was shooting outta the fuel rail! Fuck that was funny when everyone started to run away anticipating an explosion!!! ahhahaha, sorry again guys!!

Nah, the intercooler was off of an audi 5000 with custom (and might I add HUGE!! haha) end tanks! It's funny, cuz I think my car looks pertty good on a flat bed!!! :rofl: :rofl: Oh well, yah, but I have to admit, that my car is fucking slow!! Even with that turbo, but the funny thing is that it feels pretty damn fast!! Oh well, as long as I can feel the extra torque and hear the blow off valve, I'm happy!!! hahahahaha:rofl:
