That radiator looking thing up front is a air to air intercooler, it cools the air charge comming from the turbo to the motor.

So does that make the firebird faster than a Corvette? Because that'd take a bunch.

Kyle is gay and his car is slow... that is all

Vettes are fast but they're far from being King of the Hill.

I'm pretty sure ill go to fudds but I'll just be driving my truck. All the cars are tucked back in the garage for the winter.

Saturday I got to run up to Virginia Motorsports Park for our racers meeting. By the time I drive back I dont have a clue what time its gonna be and by 6:00 I've got to be at the scope to help 2 arena cars I work on. I need more hours in the day. I might try to swing by Jenro's.

Eh... the way he put an asswhipping on Scott's modded C6Z06 10 might be a long shot for me

Yes I was joking.... cam install teardown might start sunday evening if I feel like it. If not next week.

Brian, I remember your car from when you dynoed it at Virginia Speed. Sweet vette!

Kyle, its just a meeting for the et bracket points program and registration etc..
You'll like the track, the managment sucks at times however. sometimes track prep is lacking. Overall its a great place to race. Been racing there for 10 years now.
