      Mine also now has issues. Something in the head is ticking badly, sounds just like it did last time something went wrong and it was worn out valve guides, so it's either that or a bad lifter.

          I knew the turbo was going out, that was no surprise, so the huge cloud of smoke you all see was somewhat expected when I tried running like 30 psi.

          I think I blew a headgasket, we'll find out for sure tomorrow...

                I know at least 3 bikes left without fully functioning clutches.

                Mine had a small tick, so I put it on the trailer early.

                  Megan's CRX's battery died as she was staging, we ran back into fargo and picked up an optima yellow top. 🙂

                    dammit, you painted the bike didn't you?

                    wasn't until I saw you leaving I think that I realized that was your bike.

                                whos red ride was that that ended the day a few minutes early by dropping fluids at the top end?
                                i think it was a VW, but not 100%.
                                there was a yellow 80's firebird who had to be pushed backwards as it died and could not restart it right away.

                                      the electrode on one of the plugs on the front bank is mostly gone for some reason... the headgasket on the rear bank blew as well. I think it siezed on me too but I have not gotten around to trying to wrenching it over. Good times.

                                      I REALLY wanted to get a run in with that SC/N2O setup though. dammit. I think I'll just have to settle for turbo/N2O next year.
