NLP is real close --->
Florida offers hot summers, lightning, nice winters, bad drivers, fire ants and hurricanes. Welcome.

Fuel Slut. Period. Best people down here although alot of people may say different, come down get in with them and you'll love it. Next Level Performance is one of the top fbody shops in the country and is probably less than 20 minutes from where you live. Now for the bad, Orlando Speedworld is the drag strip down here nick named Orlando Spinworld and for good reason, They don't really take time to prep for test n tune nights so unless you're running at an event you wont really hook like you should.

Welcome to Orlando. Allright soon there will be 2 turbo cars to wip up on. :drive: As far as SpinWorld goes all you have to do is ask Randy(track owner) to prep lanes 1 &2 and the track hooks just fine, sometimes. :)

He can also head to Bradenton even though its in Tampa, Lakeland has an 1/8th and if he wants to go to Moroso if he happens to be in the West Palm Beach area. I'll be down in the area the first week of December :)

Winter is actually the hight of our dragracing season. Orlando has the World Street Nats in 3 weeks(fastest door slammers in the country). We also have the NoBull Nats on every Funday Sunday at OSW(Orlando Speedworld) theres one this weekend, these are streetable racecars from all over FL 20 - 30 of them running mid 8sec, to 9sec and 10sec streetcars. Also Bradenton has the Snowbird Nats in Nov and US Street Nats in Jan( the same cars that will run at the World Street Nats in Oct). Of coarse the Gatornationals in March. From Orlando you can race at Bradenton, Gainsville, Orlando Speedworld, or Lakeland dragstrip year round all within 1 1/2 hours driving distance.
I look forward to racing with you, Dave :)

Maybe I should break in the motor and get it tuned first?

Not really this weekend but next weekend is the World Street Nats at Speedworld Qualifing on Fri+ Sat until late night and the race on Sun. Next Thurs at Race Rock on I Drive they have a big cruise in for all the racecars(I get to drive my red 98 Formula in it for the first time :gruffy: :gruffy: ) it starts at about 6pm. Its awsome seeing 1000hp and 2000hp cars doing burnouts on a public street at the end of the event. :)

Dude I'd love to go to that, but I don't know where anything is... I don't suppose I could treat you to dinner for a tour of the hotspots? I'm heading back to Orlando tonight so I won't have internet for a little while. If you would, give me a call during the week sometime 334-718-9595 I'd really appreciate it!

Yeah, real smart putting money on a car that has full bolt-ons, heads and a 150 shot that only runs 11.58 @ 121 MPH :poke: :loco:

Shit I ran that in my Z28 over 3 years ago N/A stock cubes weighing 3550 lbs.

Once Jeff gets his launch worked out that car will run 10's.

Good day sir! :takethat:

make sure you do suspension too, all that power is useless if you can't hook it up.
