1st start up with the new back up engine. Time to go thru and rebuild the 8.0 engine that gave us a year and a half of good times.

Well guys we went to test last friday and had some issues. Luckily we found the problem on the starting line, we had what seems like a rear shock go bad. We sent them off to get checked but think it's time we step up our shock program. Engine is making killer power and sounds very happy. #wego

Red team has had a great month, gotta give a shout out to Billy and bringing this all together. From the 3tc Corolla and his V8 dragster in Hilo and the 3S starlet here in Florida. Thank you for everyone else involved who has come out to help us also. We appreciate you all.

I always tell the team how I miss the party at the starting line when you drive the car lol. Nothing better than watching everyone celebrate after our new PB of 8:04 at 163mph. We couldn't have asked for a better weekend, with a right off the trailer run of 8:16 also.
The best part is observing the data and knowing that it was an easy 7.9 second pass. It's all with patience and in due time. The Corolla and our engine program has proven to be a reliable and strong competitor in the Old School 3tc drag game.
Many ask what kind of fuel we use. No, we don't use M1. We run VP X98 fuel. We only run a 4 Injector intake and run at the end of the deka Injectors we have.
Stay tuned cause that was only the moon tune. We still have the Mars tune to run! Hahahaha!!
Thank you again to everyone involved. The best bunch of guys I have ever raced with.
WEE GOO!!!

Man, we are back home, and what an amazing week with the best bunch of guys. Want to start our 1st post with what we were able to accomplish right off the trailer and the 1st pass we made with Billy's Corolla.
Also, we want to thank BIAC808 and CARSS808 for always accommodating us and making sure they did the best they could for the best track prep possible.
8:16 at 161 mph for our 1st run of the weekend. Thank you to all of you guys who come out and help and make all this possible. Takes a massive network to coordinate and put all the pieces together.
Billy, for trusting in us to build this corolla from day one and then flying us there to keep pushing this race team.
Louie, for always welcoming us to his facility and goes above and beyond to make sure we have everything we need to put this all together.
Ricky, my right hand guy aka crewchief. We all learn together and that's what makes this so fun. Thank you Karissa and Star for allowing him to spend day and night putting the Corolla together.
My wife and stella for allowing me to chase our goals and supporting us.
Quintyn, Keylan, and your families that are always there supporting us as well.
Everyone who makes the trips from the neighbor islands. It's always great seeing everyone and meeting new faces that follow us on our social media platforms.
Thank you HPT Turbochargers Pro Valve Racing Traum Pistons for the amazing hardcore engine parts that allows us to push this far.
Red team still has plenty in the tank, amazing to see what that little back half Corolla can actually do. Stay Tuned for what's to come! #WEGO

Red team came to town and we had some major learning lessons with Billy's starlet. Not to mention wayyy to hot to be racing, now I remember why we don't race in the Florida summer heat.
Nonetheless was a great time hanging with the crew, we gathered tons of data which is the most important thing.
Unfortunately we had some major tire shake but that's part of the game, especially in the heat!

How about this blast from the past. Moroso raceway back in 1998, check out the grass next to the racetrack. Hahaha. Turbo 3tc, 45 Blow-thru webers and 100 shot of nitrous.
