Arod vs. Swifty vs. Shift518 v2.0.1.0113

this was like 8 years ago, and it was just the head by its self, just you guys picking on a white kid thats all, thinkin was dumb and would say SURE, take my money

no , ill be up wed to tune two cars for the track.

did the release bind, or was the chute not packed correctly? i used to work on parachutes

im a white kid, and i stick with them all the way, alberto sr. is one of the best guys i know, its the idiots at the lot that are terrible, and just because they are puerto rican they are rodriguez’s boys right… the only cars that REPRESENT rodriguez are MINE and AROD’s, and mine was built ENTIRELY by MYSELF top to bottom

the cage builder put it in a shitty position for situation like this. if its packed worng it would still deploy out.

ive heard his father is good people, alot changes over the years im sure… those lower lot guys are idiots i agree… they should not give away stickers, i understand its cheap advertising, but in this case, its NEGATIVE advertising.

about the parachute, yes packed right or wrong it will deploy, but the sequence is critical, if the canopy doesnt open properly, it can tangle, which will be bad news as well.

well me and alberto sr. will be getting a dyno over the winter, big changes are going to be made

yes sir, that is right. The chute release lever just needs to be moved form its current condition.

we’ll just have to test it out on the extension next time just to be sure

was that the first attempt at parachute deployment? :eek

glad everything cooled down…i think. :lol

Oh and Arod, just to clear something up…the 13.8 @ 102mph was no spray and no slicks man…It had more in it as the trap shows.

I will be back there in a couple weeks on slicks, tuned, 100 shot and see what it can do. My spray run this year was 13.0 @ 110mph so 110mph is def deep 12’s potential.

and Dan, get your shit done!!! :lol

no , but when its a normal run its ok, when your going sideways at 140 and controlling the controlling the car it’s another story, you know what i mean?

::slight_smile: ok we will see

well with my 1600cc injectors ill prolly make it to the lot on 1/2 tank a gas then just be able to make it back home, good thing the mobil is open 24 hours

lolll well if it’s tuned right and you don’t hammer it the whole time you should be able to get alright gas mileage

its not using all that fuel unless you put yor foot down, you should still get in the 20s when youre cruising out of boost, if not your tune needs work.

and Arod i understand, controlling a sliding car to keep things from being worse than they were and pulling a chute in a bad location probably arent too easy. ive never hit a wall at 120-130 but ive gone 160 and got a little bit loose, its scary no doubt, alot going on all at once

not to mention when you lose it at 130+mph you’re not the most relaxed and calm person either.

it was just a sarcastic comment lol i had 880’s last year getin over 25mpg

Your avatar is scaring me :ohnoes

lol thats my baby
