Awesome run. <img border="0" alt="[Burnout]" title="" src="graemlins/burnout.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[hail]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_hail.gif" />

BTW, I still get compliments on the cage you put in my car. Sometime in the not too distant future, I might be asking you to convert/replace it with a 10-point for obvious reasons.

Thats an awesome introduction with the car Brian, some of the guys at the shop told me that car was running awesome last night.

9.40s on motor alone, is that the quickest NA EFI 4th gen right now? Pleeease don't run Pro Stock at the shootout, because that would suck to have to line up with you in my 10.6 car because there isn't a class for big motored street cars <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" />

Congrats!

My car is a true daily driver, but I have a bit more than 400 CI so there is no good class for me. I also do not feel like gutting my car all out yet to try and hang in the Pro classes. Bracket racing also doesn't excite me too much. Still looks like a fun event, but not something I can really compete in.

Actually, if it is then you might be doing my next engine instead of just doing my roll cages.

The real issue is that the Pro Classes are not really daily driver cars. I could still compete in those if I were willing to put on a BIG shot of nitrous (and go solid roller), but I am not sure that I want to do that on an LS1 because of all of the head issues that happen with the huge shots. If my car were not driven to work 3 out of 5 days a week, I would probably feel differently about that.

Edit: BTW, I am going to HRP tomorrow to see how well the car can hook up spraying out of the hole on 26*15*10 drags. If it doesn't work, I will be contacting you to see about enlarging the wheel wells for larger slicks.

The car isnt a daily driver. I can drive around but it is so low to the ground that it gets dicey on the junk *** roads around here.
