Bad News at Reading 6
Sorry I have to be the bringer of bad news but Jesse(Subafreak) blew his engine while doing his second small run with the NO2 and the six speed. I was in the car when he launched and WOW did it launch. As he went to shift into 2nd it blew. We have guessed that it blew the head gasket out, antifreeze blowing out of the cap and overflow and oil running out of the intake. He has got to trailer it home or to Jimsbaby's house for fixin up.
On a much better note, he took it out for his first run and I was a watcher, and man did that thing get up and go!!!!!!  H was tearing ass and he said it was awsome. I got to feel the 1st gear launch with the stage 2 when I was in it and I tell u what, I used every bit of the foam on his EVO seats. Put me straight back. Kicks like a mule but I think he might have to either stage the NO2 or just nix it in 1st all together. Well he will fix and and life will move on but for now we are all mourning this event.I am sure there will be plenty of pics up later tonight as I have no camera I cannot be of help to you looking for them. Tom P.S. the rally was a ton of fun

I'm sorry to hear that as well. Jesse will have that car up and running in no time though.
Man, I would have loved to feel what you did in the passenger seat Tom. Scariest ride I've ever had was in my friends '00 SVT Lightning that runs low 12's. He blasted up the highway from a dead stop with the rear tires screaming for grip in first, second and third!  -Chike

No car meet is complete without having something blow up.
 I'm sure it'll come back faster than ever. Always one good thing about engines blowing......you have an excuse to go bigger and better.
