Video of me vs. GTS SS Here's a video of me racing Gordon last Friday night. Notice what one of the guys is saying about Gordon's car before we start racing. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> It just HAS to be a stroker. LOL! This was my worst run of the night with a 1.680 60'. I tried flashing the converter from 1,500, and it was way too much for the track to hold. Sorry for the quality; a guy happened to get the race on video and e-mailed it to me.
Enjoy!

Re: Video of me vs. GTS SS Yeah, I tried. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> I knew that would be my only chance to not watch his tail lights down the entire 1/4! It wasn't stellar, but it was decent: .552 vs. .592. That kept us even for the first 30' or so. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_tounge.gif" />

Re: Video of me vs. GTS SS lol, it's hard to make out what the guys are saying before the race.
I did catch "heads and cam and a lot of other crap" lol
then did he say "I know but that car's a stroker" or "i know but that's what the strokers run"?
anyways good vid <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />
(i prolly watched it 15 times trying to figure out the conversation. lol)

Re: Video of me vs. GTS SS I think I've figured it out.
someone asks the mods
#1 - "Heads, cam, and a lot of other crap; the guy said. Hell, its runnin low 11s"
#2 - "If its runnin low 11s, are you sure? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" /> That can't be rite, if he's running low 11s" <<<< disbelief
#1 - "Why?"
comments made about someone else running low 11s
#2 - "I know but thats not a stroker"
Well, now #2 knows that you can run low 11s without a stroker <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Re: Video of me vs. GTS SS Yeah, I thought that was your worst pass Gordon. Every one I watch on my video is an 11.1x. We bring out the worst in each others' setup. <img border="0" alt="[jester]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_jest.gif" />
Crazyquick - Thanks for the written dialogue. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> That's the best part of the video!

Re: Video of me vs. GTS SS Hey guys. This is my first post on this site. I thought I would chime in since I was the one who took the video. While watching Gordon run a little earlier, I talked to one of his friends who told me it was a N/A motor with "all the bolt-ons", heads, cam, etc. I was the first guy who said it had heads, cam, and a bunch of other stuff. The other guy was DavidZ28 from DFWStangs who was asking about the stroker. Either way, nice running cars guys. Lots of respect for the LS1!

Re: Video of me vs. GTS SS Mike,
Welcome to the site! Thanks again for shooting the video. I can't believe that was David! I'll have to mention that to him the next time I see him. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Re: Video of me vs. GTS SS Guys, I just listened to the video again and remember what was said. Some other guy you can't hear had asked if it was a stroker. I think David asked if it was a solid roller cam setup. That's what it was. Sorry for the misunderstanding. Next time I will just shut up so you can hear the cars and not my babbling! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
