Default RMS-MAN(old vette) vs JoeG(old vette)

This is old footage of my old '00 Vette 383 A4 running my friends '04 Z16 Novi 2000.

First run I hooked and jumped out while he spun in 1st. He couldn't make up the difference by the 1/4.

Second run he started in 2nd and hooked and jumped out and I couldn't make up the difference.

During this race he was only making 8#.

Enjoy.

Sweet, looks like a close race. Where was this at? You can PM where it was if you want. Plans are changing daily with my car lol but as soon as I get everything sorted out (probably going solid again) I'll give you a heads up and we'll go run again! I have a feeling you and I are going to keep racing until one of us wins by a good distance. You're vette runs real strong!

I know, but I didn't have that cool little camera back then.

Well, I think it's just the way it looks on film, because it's not up hill. Although the shut down area is uphilll which is nice, easy on the brakes.

Since when is an LS1 Vette, an "old vette?" I was expecting a old 84 C4 vs. an 87.

Always been a sucker for a F16. I mean Z16.

Probably his old car. Meaning he doesn't have it any more.

It's a great place to run, so is another road around that same area. Probably my favorite place to run from a dig.
