Default Who was this? (Yellow C5 Z06 w/yellow wheels, DFW)

I have seen this car around quite a few times (Cleburne, Burleson) but recently had a run in with him. Seemed like a pretty nice guy, esp after having a few links put on him.

Yellow C5 Z06, TERMN8 on the plate, Yellow/Black Z06 wheels. Was told by a friend it was a heads/cam with D1SC Procharger.

Good run!!

Used to have a cobra (user name at the time). I love boost so far!

Burleson, not really anything other than maybe shopping around. Pretty boring town.

Waiting on Dan. Told him to call my cell when he is ready. He can run whatever boost he wants, as I will too.

When is the ETA on your ride?

Matt, whats up G? Hows project "boost" comming along?

He seemed like a cool guy. I was told the power curve he is making is kinda peaky. We only ran through 2 gears, 3rd-4th (40 - 120, short shifting 5k), gave him the jump, no brake boost and put probably 3 cars on him. Enough to easily pull in front of him by mid way through 4th. (comming up on a few cars in the right lane). None the less it was a fun run.

LS6 heads still flow pretty decent. I figure without the blower he is a 425-450rwhp vehicle.

He probably did not expect a f-body to pull away. He actually inticed me to run as he rolled up next to me and motioned to race, then dropped a gear.

No doubt, right!

Funny thing is I think it was his old lady behind him in a silver c5 conv. I see them rolling around together quite a bit. She wouldn't roll up next to me when I slowed down.

Once you go turbo, you won't go back. I can't believe it took me this long to finally build a turbo car. Drives virtually like stock.

On the other hand, a nasty n/a motor sure sounds awesome tho. Miss my old MS4/AFR combo for the sound only.

My car can run anytime your in the area. My work schedule has changed now so I'm working all the weekends. The only racing I'll be doing might be on a Sunday or during the week. If you are ever in the area let me know.
