well i got bad newz people, for those that actually care, but the ride is out again!!!!!
[EDIT OUT STREET RACING]
...get home and guess what motor acts up, SES light comes up, take it to autozone, misfiring/no firing cylinder 1???? get home hoping for maybe a sparkplug, nope, ignition coil, nope!! crap so i gotta tear it apart to find out what happened, hoping that it is a bad gasket cause i can actually hear a slight hissing during cranking. oh yeah i did pull the compression test, not good, 2-4 were good, but 1 was so damn weak! at worst case i'm thinking is the rings.
and honest to god i was just bout to take her to the track to run and get a time for you guys! then that happenned, i guess your all gonna have to wait again! SORRY.

I just transferred schools, just got my apartment so finally got my life set!
+ if you got questions just let me know!
naw never ran it at the tracks, never had the right fuel mods to really do it!
hey NERD - i personally consider messing around on the highway and street racing 2 completely different things. but that is for them to decide.
in bout 2 weeks i'll have time to see what happened, i'll let you guys know.

well a "speed contest" is a speed contest however you look at it in my (and the laws') opinion. this bugs me mainly because i live/drive to work on the #2 most dangerous stretch of highway in the US. 70% of the accidents are speed/racing related, the other 30 usually involve alcohol.

actually i didnt care that he posted about it, just the fact that if someone rags on him the post is deleted.
IMO if you do something against the rules and the law, it's dumb, and you should expect to hear about it.
either way it sucks that your stuff is messed up man, hopefully it's not too expensive to replace. and get that bad boy some fuel before you beat on it :thumbsup:
