made it out to New England Dragway today, and got a good handfull of runs in, and managed 2 good runs.
the first good run i bogged a tiny bit off the line, cut a crappy 2.2 60ft time, and ran 13.8 @ 106.

my next run, i reved a little more at the line, and still cut a crappy 2.2 60ft time.
i got thru the shifts pretty cleanly, and managed to run 13.6 @ 108MPH!
that crappy 60ft time, and the 108MPH trap tells me there is still ALOT left in the setup as it is, we just need to dial the car in a little more, and REALLY work on the driving.

feeling great, i was psyched for my next run, hit it alittle harder at the line, but totally missed the shift to 2nd.
when i finally did get it into 2nd, at the top of the gear i felt/heard somthing a little odd, that i had felt from time to time since the last dyno when i got on it really hard occasionally. by the time i got to the end of the track, i realized the battery light was on, so i pulled off, and poped the hood. to my amazement, i popped the alternator belt!
so, we decided to chance it and try and make it as close to home as we could. (its a 2hr ride each way)
we got about 1/2 way, ended up getting stuck in boston traffic, and i stalled the car trying to pedal it in traffic.
we had AAA tow us the rest of the way, and had my cousin pick us up a new alternator belt, and drop it off at the garage.

WOOT, what a day.

i am on the right, #885

Can't you put the E153 on the 5s?
