Hey Doc.....

[Lamonster]

You are a wildman

[SpyderWolf]

Are they going out with you to act as a pit crew? It might not be too bad of an idea. Go get em Doc!

[docdoru]

115, 118 and 121. 108 @ 2/10 in 0.937...2 more to go.

[docdoru]

Turbo stop working, no air.......packing for Tennessee, see you all there.

[Raptor]

well !! darn turbo. Well I bet it was a blast anyway! Hopefully there will be picrures to share. Well Doc, one adventure down, 2 or three more to go. And just on this trip! Be safe...

[SpyderWolf]

Sorry to hear you didn't make the 130 club Doc. What are you going to do about the turbo not working?

Doc Update.
Doc is going to stop in Kansas city, at the turbo place.
Will be arriving around midnight and at the Turbo Store about 8-9AM Monday.

Thanks for the update! Maybe they can figure out what happened to the turbocharger...

Failed to enter into 130 mph club: 5 runs with 115, 118, 121, 98 and 91 mph. 108 @ 2/10 in 0.9373 must impressed the official referees. The 121 run shot the engine and the last two runs...with no turbo:



(view from the exhaust side).

Sorry I disappoint you all...I'll give it a try in 2011 with a better prep engine (1300 cc and 6 speed...).

On the way to Gatlinburg for the Spyder in the Smokey’s and Lamonster BBQ...farewell Salt Lake City...

[groundeffect]

No worries doc, you did some crazy long ryding, as usual, and great posts along the way.

You still are the man!

[SpyderWolf]

I am glad you made it to Gatlinburg safely, and we got the chance to talk some more. I wish you the best with your upcoming new performance mods as well.

Cool video Doc.

[Lamonster]

I think those air deflectors on your mirrors slowed you down.

[Lamonster]

uncertain information?
I was pretty certain of the end results.
Better luck this time and remember the one thing you forgot last year.

Wow!

I also hope things go much better for you this year.

Doc, I haven't seen you since 2008 when you gave me a Corbin discount coupon (Thanks again!). I'm happy to see you're still alive!
Did you custom build that Bugatti-looking front end? It looks great!
