My personal best

[NATEHAWK]

I ran a 11.94 @ 114.82 at Cecil County Dragway today. 60 ft times were 1.682. Only problem I ran into was I made only one pass. I know I could have hit 11.8. I broke a rear driver side axle "Snap Boom Thump" was the sound lol. Its getting fixed tomorrow with another 28 spline just for now. In two months I will be going to a 31 spline setup. Videos to follow of the run and the vid of me bout to pull out the hole then the Thump snap boom.

Congrats, Nate and welcome to the 11's. I know that you have been working toward that all this year. :up:

Sorry to hear about your axle but it sounds like you have a plan for the fix.

[merc]

Welcome to the 11 second club Nate.

[Pops]

Cool Nate! You said you were going to doit. Nice call!

[ctrlraven]

Congrats Nate and you did with the 3.2 pulley still?

[ImpalaSlayer]

i wish you didnt break, at least you were in good spirits bout it though

[NATEHAWK]

You know it! all with the following stats..424rwhp 417rwtq 3.2 pulley on 11 psi. and all of this on a conservative tune. Dont worry come march my tune will be right and my 3.0 will be on. Watch out as I climb the timeslips. I was cool not mad at all. Like they say you are not going fast unless you break something first lol. High-C we will finish I'll long drawn out grudge match.

Congrats again Nate!!! I had a great time out there and your hard work and attention to detail shows in your great time-slips.

I got my best run on Saturday as well with my 12.23 ET and even a 116.29 mph trap speed on a 1.99 60'... It sucks that you broke, especially since you were lined up with me! I just wish that you and I could have gotten a few more runs in... :alone:

I definitely have some work to do in order to catch up with you!!! We shall see... The saga continues in 2009... TO BE CONTINUED...:burnout:

[NATEHAWK]

2009 will be the year of the Marauder!

If I read this correctly Nate raced and was the looser. High-C is the 2008 Champion by a TKO. :beer: Better luck next year and by the way, where was your helmet Nate. Cecil County has killed several Marauder. MaurderMark's engine died there, your axles, and my transmission last April.

Hint hint all blacks stay away from cecil county drag strip;)

[2ndMDRebel]

I keep breaking at Capitol...

Mega-grats Nate! Wow, CAM is really representing this year and 2009 is only going to be better!

I had CATASTROPHIC:banana2: FAILURE no one thats a real man excepts a win like that u want it fair and square.

[High-C]

WORD... I can't wait to line 'em up in March. :beer:

That's apart of racing Nate. I am sure John Force returned his winnings every time one of his opponents had a catastrophic failure, red lighted, crossed the white line, or missied a gear. When racing competitively you lose if you don't cross the line first in a heads up event. It's just that simple. Give the man the title he deserves and better luck next year.<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/gxqXjbqkDVY&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/gxqXjbqkDVY&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

Now this is CATASTROPHIC FAILURE, you just broke a part.

[ctrlraven]

That sucks to see that, good thing you stopped right there and didn't try to keep going.

I think I will keep to my Crapitol track, if Cecil has claimed several Marauders I don't want to be the next lol.

[Vortech347]

Usually they shatter. Its a pretty good R&R cleanout to repair that issue. My friends Mach did the same thing this year. It destroyed the carrier and bearings as well.

[NATEHAWK]

Pics were sent over to me from Chris...For your viewing pleasure

WOW. So those DRs really do hook... ;)

You're upgrading right? Gonna do the TrueTrac this time around?

- Curious-C

[DOOM]

At least the car is in very capable hands.

[Shermanator]

Some bad news he needs a locker too. It expanded the the boss that the bearing presses onto, and split the bearing. Pic up in a few.

[NATEHAWK]

Yea guys so for now I'm going to run a one wheel peel open differential until feb. Wouldn't make since putting another 28 spline carrier in there when I'm upgrading to all 31 spline axles and truetrac.

[Blown3.8]

Broke locker

Great run....welcome to the 11's.In drag racing as we all know, parts tend to give out. Rebuild, go at it again. And keep the faith Nate, you on a good road to getting your ET far lower:up:.

[NATEHAWK]

It's no sweat off my back. 31 setup here I come

[MarauderTJA]
