I Think LtLhomer wants to race you guys? He is fast and it is LSX based! He is bored with waiting to race Autoworx/ARE cars. VMAX1500 just wouldn't run him so he is frustrated!

1.26 ONCE is a far cry from 1.25 ALL DAY and an even further cry from his best of 1.220...don't ya think??? Nevermind the 200 less hp he has...lol

You were the one who said he wasn't impressed...I think anything less than 1.30 is doing great...hell I wish I had gone 1.2x's because then I would have gone 8.5's easily...but going 8.78 on a 1.358 isn't too bad either...soft tune-up to boot.

Or the fact that it goes 1.25's ALL DAY EVERY DAY...I bet you haven't even see a 1.2x 60 in your lifetime with your car let alone pass after pass on marginal tracks.

I could care less that you can street drive your car...you don't get any points for that in a RACE. And if you want to cruise 30 miles then race, I HAVE A CAR FOR YOU FOR THAT...but it's got a big turbo on it so you better put a second motor in that slug of yours or strap a rocket to it!

If this race goes down (atv vs spray), I will match up to a g-note on Spray...I am putting up so I expect some people to shut up or come gamble with me...

Come on ATV...my car was able to be driven as well and it went 8.70's but do you know how much difference 4 tenths (or much more in your case) of a second is? It's a lot! If you want to know what it looks like I have a video of me getting spanked (while getting the cleanest hit ever) at the strip by a mid 8-second car and I went 9.08 at 157 on this particular pass. He still got me by a bunch of cars and came by like I was standing still...

Spray knows his **** you might want to start listening and stop being such a dolt.

Not to jump in but are you going to get your car back up and running? I know a certain DSM thats lookin for a piece......

Hrmmm since your a dsm fan I'm sure it's one of the like three guys that every dsm fan brings up about racing people...shepherd? Or that other guy?

98 mm turbo + nitrous + 2500 lbs...and then act like they are doing something special when they go low 8's/ high 7's...sound about right?

Is this the one with a ford 9 inch rear in it? Non-stock suspension...etc.

Dan Millen drove his mustang to burget king...street-driven doesn't mean much.

Now making a 30 mile cruise without stopping says something about its streetability at least...

The blue beast is resting...it's funny I didn't hear anything from any dsm's all season but once winter hits they come out of the woodworks LOL!

The last DSM I raced wanted 6 cars...looked more like 8 to me...

You know what...you and your chassis guy really are going to have to go Pro Mod and show them how its done. People of your talent should not be in here toiling with the likes of us. My 1.22 on an ET street is tall! Give it a break! Its a very long was from 1.29 to even 1.25. BTW I am really tired of you bashing my car calling it a light weight rat can. It isn't some over weight joke of a race car fat pig! Like your own but it is all there. Quite frankly you must be a large person because my car bone stock with me in it only weighed in at 3500lbs so I am not sure exactly how you calculate you weight. Now back off!!! Or this is going to get ugly and don't joke with me!!

I thought you were the big shot pro mod guy. 1.22 is getting it done no doubt but its not that much faster for all the **** your talking.

Fat pig racecar all stock interior, leather seats, no gauges, no visable difference from stock except the shifter and roll cage.
Car has been 4 corner scaled a number of times and weighed at the track scales plenty of times also ..always comes in around 3675.

What are you going to do beat me up
I thought we had an understanding you have a faster cambells soup can with wheels and I have a faster street car

And I've seen myself and heard from many racers that the radials go faster than the slicks so don't act like it's special doing it on a radial...you couldn't compete in any radial race around here anyways. But you can drive to get crying towels for ATVracr without getting pulled over so there's one advantage!

You gona hold his sach all day or what?

the 1.26 was once it was the only time we got the wheels down before the 60. i got a dozen or so 1.28-1.29's all on the same setup. with the glide we are in the 1.32 range but expect more with it after some more shake down runs
