thanks guys! Yeah, these A4's with a fat stall sure are fun. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> The best part is all of the accusations/questions about nitrous, strokers, etc. One group of guys asked me to raise the hood, as if I was going to lie about it and then not let them look. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_tounge.gif" /> Most people were just stumped that the LS1's can run this quick.

Nice picture Trevor!
What psi were you running in the rear tires?
It looks like the track prep was good, how was it?

You could not only feel the sticky track tugging at the tires while pulling to the line, but you could definitely hear it, too! Track prep is always awesome for the big events.

Yee hah! Great pic!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

I was flying back from Las Vegas on Friday and got stuck at DFW having missed my connection. I thought as I was flying out on Saturday that I should look you up. Turns out I was right.

Wish I had stayed in town to watch.

(BTW, Ed Wright PCM ordered today...Hookers on the car...more times to come)

Pat - Yeah, you should've put your flight on hold and come out to the Motorplex for Super Chevy. It was a blast, and the weather was GREAT for May! It sounds like you'll have 11's before too long. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
