Rick lol.. You can't count your car! By 9 seconds you mean the 9 seconds you sit in it and imagine driving it.. Don't worry I've been in the same boat

I'm suprised no one has topped the 163 set by Vince's 383 yet besides Wade (barely) and that was with 11 deg c5r heads compared to 23 deg. lt1 heads, super fancy 3 speed lockup tranny vs run-of-the-mill th400, and like 40 more cubes! Maybe I should of bought his old motor like I wanted to afterall!

yea thats what they told me too....... I guess I will just have to listen to them! lol I plan on running some very low timing and rich AFR to help kill some of the power, until I get used to it maybe. hopefully I will get to the track by the end of the month.

We're going to put it to it.That's one of the reasons I did wheelies bars.I don't want to do a Mikey Kleman or Matt Harlan style wheelstand.

It looks like the nitrous crowd will have a good turnout at Thunder.

Talked to Kurt and he said no problem on making the track rental.They will do in 5-6 weeks what ARE couldn't do in 19 months.Man,it sure is nice to work with professionals after all the drama.Unless we break it between now and then the car will be at Thunder.
