I read most of your story! Very intriguing! I hope you have had some very good races and made some people look stupid! Ha! Love the car and
Build. I enjoy mine with only a muffler delete, I'd kill myself with yours. |

In the cars intended realm, straight line land speed racing, she is very very good... better than I am, I keep blowing stuff up... She does ok on a drag strip but really likes to feel the wind... 180 is starting to breathe, and 200 plus is the goal... I honestly have no desire to make anyone look stupid, but occasionally I've made a few look, well like they didn't know their opponent.... Welcome to my build thread and stay tuned for the results of the mile run here in about 3 1/2 weeks... It ought to be interesting to say the least...

So, I got confirmation from Corey and Rob, that my PRO EFI system has arrived. The only item wanting is the Color CAN display... but that will not hold up the tuning...
Corey is going to try to get the electronics guy, Alan, who normally only works on Mondays, in Friday to start the install... apparently in addition to the many sensors to be installed, the harness is quite substantial... I'm down to 11 days on the rig, if all goes as planned and then it's off to the land of fresh milk... I'm not sure what I miss the most working in the international environment, fresh milk or breakfast tacos...

Debatable, I love some fresh cold milk and chocolate chip cookies right out of the oven... or a piece of cake... yellow or white with Milk Chocolate Icing...

You didn't mention cookies or cake! That totally changes the equation!

Here you go
First, the assumptions: Milk = 2% Fat (Anything else is sacrilege) Milk Temperature ≈ 34°F (Any ice in the milk is a damn shame) Cookies = Chocolate Chip (at the very least, double-chocolate chip would be optimal) Cookie Temperature ≈ 100°F (just enough to be gooey, not so hot to melt my mouth) Cake = Chocolate Cake (with chocolate frosting...anything else is a lie) Cake Temperature ≈ Pretty much irrelevant. Breakfast Taco = Corn tortilla filled with scrambled eggs, bacon, cheese, & potatoes Breakfast Taco Temperature ≈ 115°F (A little warmer than cookies, because they're usually consumed outside, in the morning, when it's cold) ∴ Milk + Cake > Milk + Cookies > Cake (by itself) > Cookies (by themselves) > Breakfast Tacos > Milk (by itself) But honestly, the Breakfast Tacos are only barely better than milk by itself.
