Same here. Looks liek there's going to be a couple LT1s and a couple LS1s there. Should be a fun time.

Where you staying? We'll be at the Super 8 downtown Memphis.

now that is the funniest thing i have heard all day ! but really i have you picked to win this thing, and you are right business comes first then the car.

i may end up running it on motor if i don't have enough time to test eveything out! that is assuming it will start after the ignition upgrade.

I am just hoping to get in the quick 32 part of the program. The car was really built for the power tour this year, although I am making some changes for pump gas drags to make it legal. The second fuel system/injectors won't be hooked up until power tour. We will give it our best shot and hope for the best, but there are 2 mopar cars that are claiming 7 second ability....

I hope some of the LS1/LT1 guys run in the 9's, seems like the past showing has not been that strong. Make us look good darnit!

I wish I could have made it in, but my pic links were broken so they passed on me.

I will be down there watching. If you see a goofy red headed guy looking at LSx & LTx cars say hey. These are some of the baddest "street legal" cars in the country that are coming to this. Last year was pretty cool with a lot of 9sec cars. It wouldnt surprise me to see some 7sec passes this year. Big thing is though if they can make the trek from Comp Cams over to the track.. I know I seen at least 4 cars on the side of the road on the way to the track. Good luck to all the participants.. Maybe one day I will be cool enough to be running with these guys.
