Well in a couple days Maybe longer I guess we will autopsy the Pony Cadaver. I hate to see all the work get eaten up in a 13 second run............

I guess I was expecting more of a ten second run but we were blessed with yet another mid track smokeshow(last season)! Gotta hand it to Boost for squeezing out a thirteen second run on a blown engine. THEM IZ SKILLZ

I'm just bummin' bout the whole thing. I hope that ya get another chance at this again this year. Don't be bummed bro. I am very glad for a few reasons. 1) I didn't oil down the back tires and hit the wall 2) I realized the possible limit of a stock 302 3) I got to make a cool video 4) Durst finally gets his wish to tear down my motor for me 5) Jeremy was very cool and towed me all the way back 6) I got to datalog the run 7) I got to feel a really sick launch 8) I may have found a free engine source in trade for advertisement All in all, it could have been a MILLION times worse! Like I mentioned before, the motor is about the cheapest part of the car |

2) I realized the possible limit of a stock 302
good example of how psi does not reflect the amount of power your engine makes!

I think you were making way more power then we both thought at 13-15 psi. You know how everyone says that psi is a measure of restriction and is not representitive of how much power an engine is making? You may be a great example of it.... but in a good way.... if breaking an engine is good.... |

If there are any salvageable parts in the motor are you wanting them Kurt? Who knows, maybe the block is still in good shape |

LOL... we'll have to see what is looks like. I'd take the block if it was still good. |

Tomorrow will tell the tale. I decided to drive down and help Dursty get the motor out. Apparently he has the motor just about ready to be pulled out |

Stock with a girdle. I will take it slow this time and up the boost accordingly.

Jeremy is hilarious, jumping out of his truck going right up to the cop car like that
