Once again... my truck's beggin' for me to give it a rest.


Click there ---> 13-Second Pass (No Video, Sorry)

Click there ---> Tapping/Knocking Noise (Video Clip)



Drove it there, and it ran consistent 13.6 - 13.7 second runs (6 times). Number 7 crippled the motor. Dunno what happened just yet, but there's a terrible knock on the top, driver side of the motor. Hoping the bottom-end is undamaged, but there's no telling 'til I have time to pull it apart.

'Twas fun to see it run solid for a while. Yup, she left the track on this :






Not to jynx myself even more, but unless there's a new motor going in, that'll probably be the last time it sees a track... there's not much more I can AFFORD to make it faster than it ran.... at least not as fast as I wanna make it.

 

that sucks man, but its all part of having fun with them. what verter you running?

 

damn man, that really sux, didnt really know if you actually drove it much!! but by all means hope the damages are minor!!

 

That sucks man hope it is not to bad.

 

Yank SST3200. It's GRRRRRRREAT!

Yup, I've been driving that truck 2 - 3 days a week on my daily, rice-terrorizing trips to/from work (100-mile roundtrip commute). Drove it to the track with every intent on driving it home. Oh well... at least it wasn't the transmission.

 

Probably a loose rocker...

 

that would be awesome!!

 

Nope.... checked 'em at the track. Four sets of eyes (two sets were from some guy and crew member that runs a custom championship dragster (so Ross & I were told). Bumped the motor several times, and no dice.

 

Damn Ron, sorry to hear then..
Text or PM me your number.. I was about to call you but then realized your contact information somehow disappeared from my phone... Maybe it didn't transfer when I purchased a new one.. IDK.

 

Oh man, that really sucks. Hope you get it all back together painlessly. This hobby blows
