Maybe its just me, but punctuation and capital letters will be your friend if you ask them nicely.

Anyway, well done.

OK sounded like an interesting story but I all could make out was Blackbird and race. Honestly now, the period and capital letters are your friends. That is awesome though that someone actually takes out a Blackbird and races it. I would love to see something like that around where I live. But when I tell people I have a GMMG exhaust, they just look at me like im stupid.

Specs on a GMMG blackbird? Whats the deal? How can you run door to door through 3rd gear and then instantly jump 3 cars in 4th?

Ok, well Im not really all that familiar with the blackbird, what kind of hop ups did it come with that other ls1's did not? B/c pulling 3 cars so quickly on another modded ls1 is pretty damn impressive.
