Danny had so many problems that I'm surprised the car made it down the track. Between pieces of steel trapped between the layers on the head gaskets holding the heads up off the block. To rings getting washed out and blow by so bad it it looked like he was fogging for mosquito's at the end of the track. It's needless to say Danny wasn't having fun. This was on top of the fact that he found a crack in his block that was getting ready to go boom. So Danny miraculously found a new block only two weeks out from the race. Had to have it machined and finish assembled in the trailer at the track. Talk about dedication. His best pass was only an 8.13 and was super fat, but I have faith he will get it sorted out. I can tell you first hand there is no one else that works harder than Danny and Jennifer. Those people are seriously devoted to drag racing. I wish them luck and I'm sure we will see some good times from them.

Also, basically you're saying you started this thread to ask for a friend... suddenly you become the victim when you are called out by several people...myself included.. far as I'm concerned you can eat a bag of dicks... Why would SEVERAL people eat popcorn, tell you to be humble ,and tell you to drop it?? Is it because you have history of being pro cv-1 or because you have a history of following your little crowd and stirring **** over the cv-1? I will let you answer that... So get over yourself with the " I was being sincere " b.s. Like I said...you have a fast and impressive car...be a leader in the Pontiac community and leave to b.s. to to keyboard racers like me.. I know, I'm unbelievable.... |

If it’s any consolation, I too was curious about performance of CV1’s at Norwalk. I knew Mike McCarty was killing it as usual. But wasn’t sure about anyone else. Little disappointing that Fulton didn’t make it but not knowing why not going to bust on him, maybe logical explanation.
I want to see them (CV1’s) succeed (as is the case with anything Pontiac).

They are the definition of either dedicated,or perseverance because they don't stop until the car repeats and no matter what form of drag racing you do....you have to have a car that repeats! I think it would be awesome to see what happens if Danny ever happens to put a throttle stop on that.....100%INJUN.....ON A STICK Because that sounds like a lot of fun! I wonder if he's ever thought about that idea? Eat.....sleep......WHOMP.....REPEAT!

For instance Keith's car.....He found a happy spot with fuel with his fuel injection in good air....but his car is telling him there needs to be a change when the DA is up around 3500-4000ft. He's also learning the car is happy in the 1/8th and not a happy camper in the 1/4...but when he only runs 1/4 mile once maybe twice of year his Focus has been on making the car happy in the 1/8th....Hats off to the guy for getting out from behind his computer and getting on the track! He's going to get a win this year I can feel it.

Not bad with cracked heads that made more milkshakes in the oil pan than Dairy Queen. 9.36 is mid 5.90's in the 1/8th. He's been well into the 5.80's since then with 30 less ci.

So he ran 5.80’s in the 1/8 at Norwalk in the summer heat? I thought I read his vacuum pump doesn’t like 1/4 mile tracks. Calvin Hill Hill Performance 708-250-7420 |

There is no reason he can't if the engine is healthy. It took him 2 years to recover from the first 2 blown up engines he got from you. He hasn't hurt it since he built it himself other than had to spend $2000 fixing the internal cracks in the cylinder heads he also got from you. That set his racing back another 6 months or so. Is there a common thread there or is it just a coincidence and Keith has bad luck? I don't know. He only has about 75 passes on this engine and has gone faster with less ci. We don't know yet what kind of issue it has developed in the last couple weeks. Maybe a crack from the combustion chamber into the engine internally, head gasket, crack in the head into the cooling system like before, bad oil leak, or?? It will get figured out. I do know that the bottom end has held up just fine. I ran 9.38 5 years ago. I ran 9.35 this last weekend. I didn't think that was an issue. I ran 9.20's last year. I lowered the compression ratio and I don't have it set on kill this year. It's all about going rounds without working on it every weekend.

Boy, you guys bitch about noobs not using the search function and asking the same questions over and over.
Give it a rest will ya. Get together and pound the tarnation out of each other over stupid car parts to prove who the really cool guy is on a friggen website. Or better yet, seach “****ing idiots fighting over car parts”. You will get tons of threads and save everyone else the “peacock show”. It’s like listening to a bunch of whores arguing over who has the best dildo....

You being the acohol fuel expert, have you ever had issues overheating your engine? You run two different fuel systems so you can build heat in your motor. Why was he constantly over heating his engine running alky. Speaking of that first engine, the one that blew up after he brought back to the pits when his water pump wasn’t working and was overheated, yes next pass it went boom. Guess what, I replaced it at my cost, not his. Kinda hard to get a warranty on race engines. I simply pointed out that Keith went faster at Norwalk 5 years ago,. Now you are telling me that POS ugly headed engine is making more power than yours? I remember way back when you were constantly taking shots about these heads. With all these experts helping him now, just wondering why he is still slower and still having issues? Must be the heads. Calvin Hill Hill Performance 708-250-7420 |
