Bullitt/Mach 1 Shootout.
- Thread starter Tomcat427
- Start date
I'll be knocking on the 11's hopefully that day. The track is suppose to be extremely nice. It's only 3 years old.
Awaiting news from the stealership, because my motor may be shot. I'm hoping for the best but expect the worse.

whatz up matt what about that motor
I used my Predator to check out the TPS voltage and it was bad. I replaced it and now it runs good. I think I'm also going to get a new MAF sensor because mine is split down the middle.
I might have gotten lucky after all. 3 of my spark plugs were closed off. That is a total of 5 plugs with no gap. Something got very hot at the track and caused the internals to break down. It was steadily running slower times too.
12.3 @ 114
12.5 @ 113
12.8 @ 114
After the third run I checked the jets. I had a friend activate the switch while the nozzle was in my hand to ensure that everything was spraying right. There was fuel all over my MAF. I also noticed after it sprayed the fuel would continue to drip out. DUNNO
Hopefully I be able to attend the shootout. The N20,CAI,Exhaust are all removed from the car though.

Got to do a little tnt in the 1/8 mile. Could only get a 7.29 @ 96.96 out of her. Guess I need a little more practice. :shrug:
Oh wait, it was just TNT. :-D
Can't hardly wait to make a full pass. :beer:

Well, couldn't get a decent 60ft all day.
My best run was:
60..............1.733
1/8.............7.556
mph............94.67
1/4.............11.645
mph............119.58
It was fun, and now my racing days are done. I do plan on attending future Mach 1/Bullitt shootouts, just not as a racer.

Why are the racing days done? I removed every mod I had the other day except for the MGW shifter and the 4.10 gears. Everytime I tracked it something gave way. $hit cost too much $$$. I've gotta find a cheaper hobby.

Mainly I need more time for my family. My oldest daughter is fifteen and my youngest is 10 months, I have 2 kids in between. I will have a teeneager living at home for the next 18 years. :rolling:
Cost doesn't have much to do with it at this point because I had already built the car to meet my goals.
Anyone have any pics from this event? Sounded like a lot of fun! And Tomcat427, that is some beast you have there. Can you post a pic?
You have to post them up on photo bucket first the post the IMG for the pics..Tomcat427 said:
