The Shootout rules required that the Pro-Outlaw Class weigh in at AT LEAST 3200 lbs. We were very strict on the weight issue and the cars were put on the scales after each pass. Madman's car weighed in at 3208 lbs. (I just checked the log book from the scales.) The rules also stated that the cars must have full interior, including both front seats, and this was checked for also.

Thats great that Madman had similar weight to Wades Z-28 (Wade came in at 3250)

I think the spring will be very interesting <img border="0" alt="[devil]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" />

MADMAN isnt calling out ARE's ls1 car. he's calling out ARE's stock style suspended car. racing is a run-what-ya-brung event. if MADMAN wants to call out another 8 second car, let him

Geez, whats with all the whiners in this thread? Madman and ARE have a FUN time messing with eachother, its not serious.

I'm also somewhat ashamed of all the LS1 SNOBBERY going on here. Madman never dogged ARE's motor or compared his motor. Madman builds suspension parts for our cars, not motors. His personal goal is to have the quickest stock style suspension 4th Gen F-body. He does!

Not once did he say anything about ARE's skills under the hood, and here we have all these whiners wanting to compare engines in a thread that has more to do with suspension records.

Some of you might as well start bitching that someone may have used Mickeys vs Hoosiers, lol.

Enough of this thread!
