RIPP exlpained



Wait one min. Clam down!
5,Five RIPP cars went to the Glen
and ALL didn't break you crack head!
An 84 Alfa with some miles on it
didn't run the second day because it was 
112 dgr. at the track!
The 87 porsche turbo ran perfect all weekend 
and still is!
The 87 5ktq came from south Cara. and went 
back in one peice!
The Mitsu. suffered Head float from Boost creap,
what you don't know is that car was just their for 
testing,it had a whole race package waiting for it 
at the shop!(head,cams,.....)
My car suffered a bad knock sensor on the way up
Art something or other tried to get me one for 
that Mon or Tue but it didn't happen!
So what would you do? Not run? it's bad enough I 
spent $300 just to be their!
So I ran! When your knock sensor is bad the car runs 
with the timing really retarded which in turn made it 
run really hot! WHAT NICK FORGOT TO MENTION IS THE 
CAR KICKED ASS ALL WEEKEND! 
My best time was 2.38 around that track which is like 
slow to medium Porsche times!
The fact is the car didn't go KAAABOOOOMMMM with a mushroom 
cloud to back it up,a very little return line for the coolent
went right 
by the power steering pump! No coolent pressure, car ran hot,oil
got 
hot and thin the lifters lost their pressure the car made like
the head 
went! Four days later after some cranking was done she fired up!
Next time you feel like calling it like you see it DON'T!
Get the facts first you ass AND DON'T START TROUBLE 
I just got back on and I don't feel like getting off just yet!
Now I have no idea whats the matter with the sight Jim Griffon
was 
kind enough to post it I guess if you read this Jim please
repost the 
address for these guys they want to see it.Thank again!  
I hope this cleares things up because I don't expect to have to 
explain this again! And let me bite my touge about those Caps
you 
gave me and the rest of the list."Caps mean your yelling" what
are you 
yelling about? Cars break!

Later guys:-) Ross
