Default New Best with *vid*

I was hoping for my first 10sec pass but to be honest my driving may have been off a little. The changs from my last time ant the track are a fast 90,-10lb rotating and -another 55-60 dead weight. Last time at the track I ran 11.17@124.6 with a 1.73 60' this time 11.15@126.4 with a 1.77 60'(spinning so bad I had to feather it) so atleast I got a new best. I broke a axle on my last pass after airing down the tires a bit....it felt good for about 1.5 foot...lol

Nice run. I was at MIR and saw you run. We've met at MIR a few times. My old car was a pewter Z/28 M6 H/C car. New car is a red A4 Z/28. Hit me up next time you go to MIR, I'd like to check your car out. The weather started out pretty good but by the end of the night the dew was so heavy on the car after sitting 30 minutes you could write your name in it. I think with the killer air later in the season, and MIR's track prep you should reach your goal on 10's.

Yea I remember ya! I asked my friend Branden if he saw ya, I did'nt know that was you in the red car. He had the red firehawk that would come down sometimes back in the day. It seemed we were always on oppisite ends of the track so I never got a chance to chat with ya. I talked to the dude "pac-man" with the badass blue mach1 a couple times. I don't know if you remeber Phill or not but he was there also.

It did get very humid. The track seemed very slick in the beginning, I would spin in 2nd bad enough to have to breathe the throttle. Then I ended up busting a axle. This is still the same engine as when you seen me last...lol

What happened to the pewter car?

Sold the pewter car to a guy in South Carolina and bought a 2002 Z06. Biggest mistake I've made with a car. I liked the Vette but if I had it to do again I would have kept the Camaro. I'm starting over with auto this time. Have to admit I miss the M6 at times. Yea I remember on the old EFA some people gave you chit over spending the money on that LS6 crate engine. I'd say you got your moneys worth with that motor.

That vid did'nt download for some reason. I'll try to get it out....but something about watching a car move 1.5 foot just don't excite me...lol

Hardtop if you only knew the amount of **** I have gotten over the years for that engine. Lots of nay sayin....the problem is that I don't even know what to lie about to tell people why it does what it does. Most ask if I'm sprayin and I'm not. It's just been lots of little **** to get where it is....well that and 80k of breakin mileage. It has been a great engine. I want it to go 10's before I put in my secret weapon.....a stock ls7....lmao

My best time is 11.29 at 117MPH. I got UMI K member and LCAs,Strange coil overs,light weight battery and light weight brake rotors still to put on. I don't think it will be enough and on the street with those kind of traps he is getting I am in big big trouble. With Z turd running 11.21 at 123 MPH in his Camaro with just cam and stock 243s those AI 243 heads,LS7 lifters, with injectors down stairs better get installed fast....

That pretty fast for the cammode.lol.jokkin. I would think if you got him out of the hole real good it would be hell of a race on the street or the track. He's gonna have to run you down, but with that 126 mph he's gonna be coming on hard at the big end. I hate racing him anymore.

I think he will clobber me on the street because I can't hook on the street like the track. If I redlighted him at the trac, he got spooked and busted up the launch maybe I could pull it off.
Got to lighten this bitch up!!
