this is crazy that there has been so much talking about the same post...this is the second post on this site about the same thing!!! either he ran it or he didn't doesn't matter to me i just want everyone who does care getting it straight so that i can stop seeing the pointless post... i hope he did run the times cuz that would be amazing but if he didn't than whatever he lied people lie everyday... i think there is a simple answer to the problem do it again! or close to the times if not drop it

ok all this drama is pissing me off.... ranger.. is being a ******* *****.


if you read through the posts here are the facts..


there IS a picture of the Z06 with the number on its window, at the track... the SAME number as the LEFT lane on the timeslip. You idiots saying he was in the right lane need to go back to school and learn to READ.

secondly.. there are ALWAYS flukes. that is why NHRA requires you to back up your runs. for situations just like this. How do you guys know that this dude didnt hit 100% optimal conditions? how do you know that his tires werent sitting in a brand new fresh batch of VHT and that he was perfectly in the groove??

you claim bullshit and say its not physically possible that his clutch is holding a 1.5 60'.... HOW CAN YOU SAY THAT??? who gives a **** if everyone elses clutches dont hold. what does that matter? what does that mean??

look at all the F bodies breaking their rear ends... look at EVERYBODY saying that you cant run 500 RWHP on the stock rear end because "it cant handle it" guess what, there ARE cars holding the power, there ARE certain people with cars set up perfectly that defy the "norm" every year.


this is just outrageous to me... he posted the time slip... the ONLY thing up for discussion is how stock his car is.

Pave1, if you need any help hosting pics or anything of the like send me a PM and i will host em for ya..


yall need to chill out and quit being ****... this is the **** that makes me embarrassed to own and race a corvette... all you elite-ist ******** with your heads stuck so far up your own asses its rediculous..



sorry... rant over. (hope i dont **** off any mods)

Well said.
I'm not on the vette boards at all (since I have a GTO not a vette) but Ranger, who apears to be very involved with the online vette community is being very ignorant and digging himself into a big hole. You can't deny that he ran the number. Sure, maybe there was a timing error, although I doubt it, or maybe he just got lucky, who knows, but the fact is he is not a "scammer" and he did run a 10.7 and that can't be argued.

Man, you have put up with some serious **** on both this site and the Corvette forum. Didn't I see George vouch for your car number that day? And didn't I see Tony say he saw no signs of photoshop to change the slip? So what's the ******* problem? Does he need a lie detector test, should he let the guys on CF tear his car down to the ground? Seems like somebody got their ***** hurt after you busted up their numbers and, then the bandwagners came to town. I'm almost embarrassed for acouple of the posts I've seen on this site.

I think the issue is that no one believes he got the 1.50 & ran the pass w/ a stock clutch..

Out of all the **** I've ever "claimed" on this site. I have never had anybody get all over my *** this. Great way to welcome a new member that people are actually vouching for.

He has run 1.5's more than once, and has slips to prove that too. I wouldn't think a stock clutch could do that, but it did, and I'll post up another one of his slips showing a 1.55 60' as soon as he sends me a picture of it.

Here are 2 links to his car at Island that day, (they are copywrited, so I can't post them as embeded pics)
enjoy:

I wonder when the CF bandwagoners will make their way over here? Hopefully they won't bother since BS dosen't fly on LS1tech.

I'm an A4 guy, but from reading the threads etc., my question would be,
is the current owner the original owner?

If not, how does he know if the clutch is the GM stock one?

If he is the original owner, & bought the car from a dealer with 0 miles, then everyone needs to accept & believe the run & the 60' time..

The timeslip has been posted. The car did run the times stated. Where it was a one time fluke because of track/weather conditions, error in the timing gear, or whatever else, the run was made. The drama on this has continued on now for two threads. Until any new and different info is presented, time for this topic to end.

Unlocked for 860 Performance to post a new timeslip.

Thanks for unlocking Keith!

If anyone cares and has a few minutes to kill, go find the threads on CF and Digital Corvettes, where he was labeled as a fraud. I'm just trying to establish some credibity for him here on LS1tech.
Here is a copy of another one of his timeslips showing a 1.55 60'

Is this even for the same car? There is a big difference between 1.505 and 1.653.

Slip 1:
60' = 1.50
300' = 4.4
1/8 = 6.8 @ 100
1/4 = 10.7 @ 126

New Slip:
60' = 1.65
300 = 4.7
1/8 = 7.3 @ 92
1/4 = 11.6 @ 114

Why the huge difference in the 1/8 and 1/4 times and mph?

The first slip has a 1.5 60' for P.C. Richards. The second slip for P.C. Richards has a 1.65 60' . You need to get your story straight!

Mistake on my part. I was looking at the driver names rather than the car numbers. The car did make another close 60' run. The horse is still beaten dead on this though....
