Knowing we were no where near ready we loaded up and headed to the local racetrack to get ourselves an expensive test n tune session in. The old turbo nova surprised me in how quickly it’s coming around! We find some new issues but nothing that can’t be tackled!!

That was my first thought, Fool's Gold liked it. Nice
Cmon Matt can't hate the Fox lol.
Nice run Matt but your 60 foot is still your kryptonite..if you have to lose a race it should be because they ran you down??
When you had the alignment done and your bump steer kit installed by lucore the car had a big block in it if I remember correctly and now you have an aluminum small block could that possibly change the alignment and how the front end works with the bump steer kit?
Heavy bumpers lighten the doors try to lose weight on the car steal fenders fiberglass fenders and doors and bumpers will help a ton
If you are gonna no prep it then you have got to do a lot of work clone Billy’s car brother
Truthfully, all these people standing at the line giving a thumbs up shouldn’t be there. If you can’t get your car up on boost in time that’s your own problem, you can’t stage your car bump it in that’s your problem and it’s ridiculous. All these people saying wait I have to see when he’s ready, if you’re going to race the car. Make sure it’s ready to go within seven seconds or so so you don’t burn somebody down Too much pussy stuff going on
Hardest working dude on YouTube. Personally I don’t think this car should be lining up next to anyone until that steering issue is fixed. For many safety reason including your own. Plenty of content to be made working the bugs out. First pass you almost lose it and said we should’ve turned it up more. 5-10 more mph that bobble at the end might of ended differently
Can I’ll use a fifty shot for sixty foot
DNR auto nova got a gangsta lean goin on
Need tires bro wish I could help
Looks like ball joints are lil wore
Brother, if you took those big ass bumpers off that car, you’d probably lose close to 100 pounds right there
The nova has always had a weird rear steer or chassis issues ever sense I started watching it run, I don’t think it’s much but it’s off a tick somewhere, get the 60 a bit better you will have a nice little package , 4:10 maybe? Those leaf spring cars should be fairly predictable chassis wise on top end.
Get some 1inch longer front upper ball joints from speedway
HI ALL
SO JERRY please put ya visor down wen ya leave the line god forbid any oil comes flying in the car or ya no wat i mean never seen ya have it up cool and good sport my man ya had fun
Glad to see you racing again Matt
Hard trying to keep up with the compatition. Examples, SRC. Trials and Errors.. Keep going on.
Main thing is,foolsgold is back in business!! Was so happy to see her strokn.
Man you are one sketchy dude saying that was a great pass and you almost freaking wiped out at the end sketchy guy you are
Quality is decidedly stepped up. Let’s goooo
Hell yeah Matt good to see you putting in some seat time you will get it all figured out better luck on the next one
How’d it feel back in the seat Matt?
It need to go on a dyno. It would make tu ring so much easier. Good luck bro
are you running 28.10,5 or 28.10 slicks?
Dam it bro, I was hoping for a win, keep at it, u need to be putting 25 psi to her
Lots of professionals in comments I'm lost
14lbs of boost is equivalent to a hole other engine added
The sound sounded like the u joints are hitting something but it could be the mac hose
Gears and better converter
Glad to see you back in the Nova. That car is a legend. Not a fan of the LS but happy to see the car back up and running.
Leaf spring sliders
Thanks for sharing brother
You need to put a set a 430 years in a car you don’t have no 60 foot because your car is heavy you don’t want 456 then you don’t have top in 430 I would be the perfect gear for your car the turbo will give you a top in the 430 I’ll give you a robotic bed to move the weight of a car
Looking fast!That steering issue scares me.
