My Boys reaction to his first time in the car since about 150 Hp ago.
Quick 3rd gear hit to check real boost with a gauge, I thought I was making 25, turns out more like 29 lol.

The squealing is the tires screaming for mercy lol.

You really should think about taking this to Land Speed Trials at Loring next summer!!!

I’d love to, hopefully time is more on my side next year 🤞🏻🤞🏻

Summer tires, but I like your idea. Perhaps I’ll perch myself up there with my Garand!

308 or the real one...30-06?
Edit..
CMP.
Still awesome, but a 308

 

[2ndAmend]

I have never seen a reason for a .308 Garand. Every one I have seen was unreliable. It was created for the Navy to use the same ammo as the 14.

 

[Old Mopar Guy]

.30-06 of course.

Just for fun:

I would love 2 show off sum of my invatory, but,,, any pics would give da cumstop ohhs unother reasun 2 use against me. They have taken, AND GIVEN BACK 2 TIMES, and ammo witch came 2- 800 rounds ov varous tastes. So, I dew snot give them any ammo to use against me. But good lukin rep or original?? Good lukin 1 way or da utter.

 

[Old Mopar Guy]

Thanks Hick, swapped out stock, otherwise orig.

Most all M1 Garands were modified for the 308 by the CMP and government.
Get a 30-06 Garand, hold onto it, they are getting rare.

Too late. Last time I shot it was 2016 Camp Perry, after 6 years of collecting dust I sold it. Selling lots of things I haven't used in years. (Now start the jokes....)

Well....after a season of racing, the hellcat is unfortunately down for the count after 1 pass at a track rental a couple of weeks ago, same one that @2ndAmend went to. Did 1 pass, came back down for the ticket and noticed the engine was missing bad. Turned it off and it wouldn't turn back on again. Got it re-fired and it was just a white smoke show and the engine was struggling along. Turned it off and called a tow truck and it's been at the speed shop waiting for an engine pull and diagnosis since. Pretty much worst case scenario. Hoping the damage isn't too extensive and I won't be out a fortune.

They already pulled some oil and found metal in it so something indeed broke. Really disappointing because the race tune that I'm running is pretty mild and not something I'd expect to cause an issue. I may have just gotten unlucky but will create a thread if the diagnosis proves interesting enough.

The car still ran a 10.4 while blowing up though, so that's something
