Running that Talon, I left on like 2psi. Against the bike, I left at 14. Did not want to lose to that guy, he never would have shut up about it lol. Pedaled it a little bit and it did ok. Went 0-60mph in 3 seconds flat.

I think its a combination of a bunch of different people working on it independently, and some of them don't know what they were doing.

Haha yeah its a handful. Shifting to second around 55-60 it broke loose again and kicked over into his lane. Wants to get away from me lol


That Talon is no joke either. I know he isn't used to getting pulled very often.

This is that car running at IFO in Vegas, off nitrous

Import Face Off Las Vegas May 2013 FIS Semi finals - YouTube

Believe this is in Seattle, on nitrous

Sinister Speed 1g auto DSM runs 10.16@137.65 - YouTube

He's going to bring the bottle out next time for a rematch

He failed to tell you that secret??? LOL

One of the many WINING repairs preformed on the truck.

If the rear Axle's or the Housing breaks, that's my fault... I did warn him to recheck the bolts periodically though. Just an FYI if your making passes in it.

Man I hate to tell you, but I can barely hear the turbo, I think you need to upgrade again...

Aside from that, truck seems to run ok. Do you have a problem with your front diff wanting to puke fluid out of the vent when you go 100+ in 4wd?
