Re: New LS1 NA Record for the Colonel!!! Didn't you say you got a Camaro b/c you wanted a 4 seat car as fast as your RX7? Now you have a 1 seat car thats much faster <img src="graemlins/burnout.gif" border="0" alt="[Burnout]" />
Congrats on the great times (time to go solid roller now <img src="images/icons/wink.gif" border="0"> )

Re: New LS1 NA Record for the Colonel!!! Damn Kernel...I mean Cuhnel...lol.
Nice run Steven. You really ought to head up to Caralina Dragway and run for some money. Just slap the B&B back on the car and I bet you could leave Jackson, SC $10,000 richer in one night. Those guys race for $1000-$5000 a pop and no one would suspect your car of being as fast as it is.
Anyway, enjoy the record. <img src="images/icons/grin.gif" border="0">

Re: New LS1 NA Record for the Colonel!!! G'mornin ya'll! Whew! Last night was somethin' else! <img src="images/icons/cool.gif" border="0">
Thanks for the congrats everyone! <img src="images/icons/smile.gif" border="0">
Lemme give a HUGE thanks to MTI!!! They have been EXCELLENT to me! <img src="images/icons/cool.gif" border="0"> They've given me nothing but first class service and built me an engine that simply amazes me! I can't wait to see what they can do with a solid lift cam! <img src="images/icons/shocked.gif" border="0"> (Some of you might not know that I am still running a hydraulic cam and shifting at 6800 RPM.)
Patman, yes, the timing is nice. I wish I could say I planned it that way. What a week! A new LS1 tech board is born in spectacular fashion and then NA 9s.! (Ya think I'm happy?!? <img src="images/icons/grin.gif" border="0"> )
SSBoy, make that DNA please! <img src="images/icons/grin.gif" border="0">
Blistering Z, my previous best was a 10.06 @ 134.28. That was done back in the summer hence the better trap speed now.
racer7088, thanks, I'm glad to be in the same company with the SAM. Very honored. <img src="images/icons/cool.gif" border="0">
Crazyquick, yep, that was the idea when I bought this car. I just wanted a four seat car that was as fast as my high 12 second RX7. LOL! That goal didn't last very long! <img src="images/icons/wink.gif" border="0">

Re: New LS1 NA Record for the Colonel!!! Great times! Why don't you swap a 4spd back in the car and show these guys that you can have a 9 second OD car. <img src="images/icons/wink.gif" border="0">

Re: New LS1 NA Record for the Colonel!!! Thanks Terry, I might just do that. Wouldn't be hard. I still have the 4L60-E, converter, and driveshaft it would take to do it. Or, I could add a Gear Vendor's OD to the mix.

Re: New LS1 NA Record for the Colonel!!! How about "8s are just a spray away!" <img src="images/icons/wink.gif" border="0">
NFRA form? No, I decided NA 9s would be easier without 100 lbs of lead in the trunk and a full tank of gas. No one is crazy enough to ride with me anymore so the passenger's seat came out too! <img src="images/icons/wink.gif" border="0"> But no, I didn't go so far as to pull the dash out this time.
Thanks all. <img src="images/icons/smile.gif" border="0">
