GBC is Burned-Out

Posted 08-18-2010 at 01:16 PM by secongendsm (Project "What was I thinking?")

We’ve been working on T. Talon since April 2008 and had her track ready by late 2009. We took her to Las Vegas in November and then again this past March. Been to Wendover several times and monthly to Rocky Mountain Raceways. Photo shoot in St. George for my Mitsubishi Gearbox Magazine interview and another photo shoot for my CAM Auto Magazine interview.

We’ve been through one motor...

Ben Hanks Racing Roll Cage, Photo Shoot and an Online Interview

Posted 06-14-2010 at 02:03 PM by secongendsm (Project "What was I thinking?")

We've been busy the last few weeks between installing a new motor in the Talon, ten year anniversary BBQ for UTDSM, having the roll cage installed and a photo shoot for an upcoming feature on the Talon (and me).

We finally brought the Talon back home from Ben Hanks Racing last Thursday. We had a photo shoot scheduled for the following Saturday night so we had to hustle to the interior...

New 4G63 and a Roll Cage

Posted 06-03-2010 at 08:52 AM by secongendsm (Project "What was I thinking?")

We spent the last two weeks trying to get the new motor swapped in after my little mishap at the track. Last Saturday we got her running again.



After putting a mile on her we needed to get the windshield out for the roll cage to be installed. That is where Harbor Freight comes in. $17 and 15 minutes...

Oil Pump 1 Me 0

Posted 05-28-2010 at 09:59 AM by secongendsm (Project "What was I thinking?")

Second race into the season at Rocky Mountain Raceway and I put my Eagle Talon on the trailer, and not by its own power this time.

We've been playing with the shifter length and I've been having some issues getting into fourth gear. Well, this run I missed 4th and the motor rev'd up to about 10k-11k and hung there awhile. Motor stopped, I pulled over and was pushed off the track. We...

Introductions and Preparations

Posted 03-04-2010 at 11:12 AM by 9!'clipseDOHC (1g Non-turbo -> Turbo swap)

About a year after my failed engine swap I got a new job and moved 2,000 miles away from my hometown. Priorities in my life changed and I forgot all about that turbo engine that was sitting on that stand back in my parent's garage. About a year ago I even put my car up for sale. Then something changed. I started fixing little problems and spending more and more time with my car. I got active on dsmtuners...

My Eagle Talon in Mitsubishi Gearbox Magazine

Posted 11-27-2009 at 11:49 AM by secongendsm (Project "What was I thinking?")

Recently, I posted about a new online magazine called Mitsubishi Gearbox. Well, I was lucky enough to get myself and my Eagle Talon an interview. During our recent trip to the Las Vegas Motor Speedway, we stopped in St. George to take some photos (blog post coming soon and thanks Jet Snow for taking the pictures!) for the article. Read my complete interview at Mitsubishi Gearbox Magazine.

Videos From our Trip to Las Vegas Motor Speedway

Posted 11-25-2009 at 08:39 PM by secongendsm (Project "What was I thinking?")

We loaded up the truck and trailer last weekend and headed for the Las Vegas Motor Speedway. After an uneventful drive and stopping in St. George to pick up Jet Snow we arrived in Las Vegas. “The Strip” puts on Friday night Midnight Mayhem events similar to Rocky Mountain Raceways midnight drags. I’ve never raced anywhere but Rocky Mountain Raceways and Wendover Raceway so I was excited.
