Default My Hawk vs. supercharged LT1 Corvette..

I was up the races in philly the night before easter and a 93 corvette with a paxton supercharger called me out.. We lined up and he jumped the line early, i launched at about 1,700 and it bogged a little bit. At this point he had me by about 1.5 cars. Then as soon as the rpm's shot up and the juiced kicked in it was all she wrote. I made up the difference and added 2 cars by mid 3rd gear.. he was pissed we raced again and he thought by letting more air out of his tires this time would help, LOL.. same results.......

does your car pass inspection, even with the 224/224/112? I am in Philly too, BTW. Where was this race at?
