*** I'm not responsible for any damage that happens to your car/engine while trying to get this picture.

hahaha, that's funny!!

Yah, you do. It's to get a picture of flames coming out of the back of my car!



I'd only be worried about my turbo, but that's half-shot anyways. Waiting for a GTX30R to drop out of the sky into my lap.

It's a one man job if you capture a single frame from a video.

..or if you wedge a rod between the seat and the go pedal!

Of course I over-complicate it, you could just use a brick. Might have to get fancy with the clutch sensor wiring - heck now the rod could come in handy

Definitely read Johnny's disclaimer!

^^

yeah I think I'm forced to sit this one out

In reference to your dp, this sounds like something homer would try to do with Bart's 20" pole. Maybe put a boot on the end of it?

[quote=Johnny Larmond]All y'll took too long. I waited 2 days for this to be over with and now I had to do it myself. *sigh...

Also, very private up here. I might have to come back, or we can start having meets on the top floor!

thats an amazing Idea, just one meet at the top before the season ends. where is that spot exactly?

HERE!!!

I always go up to the top floors to find myself. That's why I knew exactly what I wanted the next photo to be

I would love to do meet up there. The one by bramlea is awesome

Tried my best to get flames but no go, I get it all the time at the track but at a stand still the other night it just wasn't happening.

Yeah same here, I think I would have to go test pipe.

We tried at the meet yesterday

I just really hope someone gets a great shot! I like this one because it's not "oh, lets quickly drive here and *SNAP!* done!"

I don't since I am unable to try this 1

I like the "oh, lets quickly drive here and *SNAP!* done!" way,

When we started i was expecting that once someone posted the idea... then a day later you would seee several pics from differant people. Who was first would win.

Maybe we'll get some fire shots from this "13 hours of racing in quinte!" this weekend

me too but I guess something different every once in a while is ok

Something like that would be mint
I just want to see some DSMs fire it up!

i see this thread going into winter hibernation and back up come spring

I think a VIDEO should count

It's not winter yet!

Just take a video and take a screen shot of the frame of the video.

Although I know a lot of you are youngins but when we were kids we used to put a bunch of pictures on a real to make a movie.

Here is your request Johnny, me at the dyno in Ottawa last year.

wooo !!! next picture !!!

what would you like to see?

i'd let this count if we all agree to move on from this engine busting task

x2

aaww and i was about to go out and biuld a flame thrower out of an old fart can and hold it under my 2g!

But im good with that too, BUT it is up to Johny tho.

just out of curiosity paul, what did you dyno that day?

thats after the vac hose popped off the gauge and had a big leak. for your viewing pleasure

man thats a sweet car! would be cool to see it this weekend.


You know Paul,

One of my work buddys, who owns a orange 70' Cuda, tells me he has a plaque on his wall, claiming "fastest street legal Muscle car, At the first Picton Armdrop".

Says he only lost to 2 cars that day, Another highy modified "not street legal" cuda,

And that dam white talon!

what turbo are you running??

if that's your friends car tell him that my daughter was driving that day. the current turbo is the dsm hta3586.


Sorry Jay, I was getting the car ready for this weekend and went out and did some logs just to make sure the car runs good. So a little timing here and a little leaner there plus nice and cool morning and the 3gear did not like that and decided to go to never never land at 42psi. I was able to get home but the car needs another tranny. that was my 2nd built tre tranny(stage 4).

should have guessed 35r

1/4 mile et?

best time last year was 11.2 with a gentle launch and 135mph.

and that thing was an automagic lol

nice run! slipping clutch = gentle launch i gather? really, you have a 10 second car then.

so this next picture

Funny enough, this happened to me going onto the 407 from the 401 Tuesday afternoon. Was playing around with an Aston Martin on the crossover ramp and after only a few seconds of being on the 407, I heard a huge bang and all of a sudden the car started running super rich and what-not. Turns out the hose blew right off the 't' in the engine bay. I didn't look at my boost gauge, but I estimate I was at least 30+ psi on my 14b when it blew, on a 30psi boost gauge.

ok, ok... I'll accept this as it was pretty prolonged.


Only if you do it wrong

Paul what's the next picture !?!?!

oddly enough.. thats not him.. he had a 70.. thats a 71. a beautifull 71!
