Oops, guess it'd be good to include a link, huh? heh

Cool vid.
U pulled him pretty good in rounds 1 & 3.
Do you think you would have eventually caught him in round 2?

Hey, just checked out the vid's and loved it. Thanks again for having the cam and posting the runs.

To all! Baldurann is a great LS1Tech friend and always up for a good run. I called and asked to run and he was there in a matter of 45 minutes. I am proud of the round 2 run (for obvious reasons). On that specific run we started at a higher mph and I started in 2nd gear. 1st & 3rd runs - I started in 1st gear - probably my mistake. I am not making any excuses. Additionally, the runs were probably not entirely fair to Baldurann considering he needs tires badddddd, and he had a 200+ buddy riding shotgun to take the vids. His car is sooo nice and I know is faster than my poor little Firehawk. It's always back to the drawing board.

If anyone in H-town or surrounding area needs tires? Call my buddy - Joe King, He will undoubtedly give you the best price. Joe's number: 281-399-5464

Also, I plan to go to HRP soon and find out my 1/4, 60 foot & other numbers. Will post as soon as I know.

Always fun for street runs with LS1 Tech buds and not getting busted!
Also, thankful that on the final run, I did not, in fact, blow the engine when I looked down and the oil pressure was @ 0..... Now that was crazy...

Keep up the great racing and thanks again.

Too funny. I've actually been out in your neck of the woods lately. Every time I see the suggested road, I think about it. Seriously though, If you are at the ???? mark (et you told me), I need to do a few more things to be competitive. No worries though, we will run before you know it.

PM me your cell again. I have a better way to save & hide the number and soon it may not matter at all.

Lol - had to log into a pc to hear the runs and the " oh #$*@ ". Actually didn't remember even getting that close! Just a little too close! That's one thing about the street - Potential of breaking up your toy.

For some reason I saw baldurann vs. Y2Khawk when I read the title. That would NOT be pretty.

Nice runs guys. Clearly the 'vette has the advantage.

still, im not exactly sure wat you mean by zip-tie, can anyone please chime in..its been driving me nuts since i first saw it in another vid..

nice runs by the way, that the way they should be done, with nothing but pure enjoyment without putting your self in danger. Though you did get close to that van y2khawk...
