You mean the slowest f2 car on the planet? Sorry I am a little bitter after putting behind that piece of garbage on the return road as they pulled it back with the worlds most busted ass 4 wheeler. Needs to remove the terrible Olds motor and put a BBC in it. Why does it need to be towed back again?
Anyways, his name is Josh Lester, I think he is on facebook or something.

As I understand it, they can't even begin to get it tuned for E85 with the current carb.

^then why keep running it down the track? To have a dick measuring contest to see who can have more shit sticking through the hood and looking like a pro stock car? If my shit ain't working, I'm not gonna bring it to the track.

There was literally a line of like 4 cars behind me as well.

I think everybody posting in this thread knows what struggling with a car is like.

I know what struggling is all about... Just ask anyone who knew me when I had my firebird or my Camaro when I decided I was gonna spray it. Ignorance on the other hand is a different story. In the form of trying to make an olds motor fast, trying to run it even though it doesn't have the right carb on it, and the list goes on... Bottom line, it's an f2 blower, I'm pretty sure you could make a Briggs and Stratton powered artillery vehicle go faster than 11s if u put an f2 on it....

Wow this is definately in the right section! They are trying different combos with that carb to try and get it going, knocking them for trying to stick with olds shit is pretty bad. its not a cookie cutter combo like the LS. but while we are on the band wagon, wtf is wrong with these olds boys, thats like trying to make a probe fast.... Then again, going half throttle and trapping what they are in the 1/8th aint bad either....
