this ought to be interesting. I am still flat out amazed you pulled a 13.9 quarter on a 13C 940 at 100mph. Thats very impressive. I guess you had a VERY healthy motor.

It was a 15G...exact same setup as Gonzo's car. The only difference was (1) he doesn't have a DP, and (2) he doesn't have injectors.

Other than that...mod for mod, 13.9 @ 100 @ 18psi w/ 110 oct., stock tires, full weight. The 110 is worth a lot.

Well, I bought a new alternator from Autorip you off and put the voltage regular from that into mine.... seems stupid but It got me home. Im going to return that get my money back once I get a voltage regulator YADA and get my mo mo money back....

I couldnt believe how worn down the brushes were, i was basically driving off of my battery

I've gone through voltage regs before in a couple other cars. Always made me happy to see that's what the problem was because it's cheaper and easier than an alternator.

You all better be planning to hit the drags on the 5th, it's our last chance for EvW '09 entries!

It was such a relief knowing that the part to replace was actually in my budget for once I should be fine, Im not sure i'll have the clutch in by then but if people want to help lets say in a week or more then Im more then willing, I just need to get the flywheel done

Have you called them about the flywheel yet? Their turnaround is only a couple days. I'm sure we can get the labor part handled.
