wow, what a mess up story. I hope Tyler recovers.

 

i hate senseless people in this world that have nothing better to do

hope he recovers from this & they find the guys & beat thier asses to a pulp too

this is a good idea & cause for him, if I can sneak away from car toys show i'll come up and support

 

hopefully they catch the ppl

 

hey david you going to be there both days???
if so i might swing by to make a donation..
dont really need to find out how many horses i have.
i know i have enough to scare myself...lol

 

have your ponies become horsies now? he he

 

i wont be there unfortunately... this is actually a friend's friend

 

was i the only person who went? i felt so out of place. like 30 hondas, 5'evos' and a few subaru's, was a hell of a drive but a lot of fun.

my tow hook got ripped off on the first run though? lol

 

tow hook got ripped off? how?

 

my car slid sideways, best bet is the steering wheel wasn't straight, so when the had
the tow hook linked up to the front drivers side when the car pulled to the right it split
the tow hook from the radiator support.

they were panicked looking, the owner at first was like i dunno what happened it was
all rusty and it snapped off. i looked inside and the tack welds peeled to the left.
i have worked at body shops so i know how it happened. it was accidental and not the
shop or my cars fault.

i don't blame them though some margin of error is bound to occur when doing that
high volume of cars. just sucks mine had to be the error. and in no way to say that
they are incapable at all. they were well assembled and very organized.

all in all it was a good event with a good crew of tuners and the shop did very good
considering the amount of cars that had to be cranked out, also the fact it was all
going towards a hospitalized youth made it all the better. so im cool with it.

also they are covering the repair if i choose to drive all the way down to the border of
oregon. so instead im going to try and find a buddy or a shop up here and get it
welded.

anyone in the Snohomish county area good at welding, and whilling to do it for free?
im broke and spent my last hundred on the dyno run and gas to get there and back.lol

considering the tc makes 135-140whp at the wheels and 161hp at the crank, well
here my dyno sheet....

so im probably sitting around the 175-178-ish hp level at the crank.

before the dyno run people were chuckling, after they were asking hella questions
about what i had done to the car to get the torque curve like that.

im pretty happy and since this is an awesome baseline to gauge my hp gains when i
go boosted we will just have to see. seeing dodaddy's car at show for a cause
made me retarded.
