stock iron 5.3 other an ls6 cam and springs. mp70 turbo, ebay intercooler, tial wg and bov. stainless and vband everything home built turbo set up. msd for the ignition and megasquirt for the fuel. built th400 with a brake and a precision stall. 8.8 disc brake trackloc rear with 323 gears and good axles. hp motorsports uppers and lowers and and antisway bar. 6 point roll bar. single gss392 pump with a voltage booster. autometer tach and speedo. lm1 wideband. several other parts to make it all work but thats the good stuff.

car is good for consistant 10.20's. good weather, tail wind, sticky track and moons aligned... a little quicker.

the problem with us trying to set up a race without pinks is no moderator. if we were to race and try and strike deals we could both live with we would need a moderator to push things along. on pinks you give up your car before hand so both sides end up giving and the races get done. i could see us standing on the starting line in a deadlock arguing lengths. i have little doubt when the day comes your car will be quicker than ours if it isn't allready. it is going to come down the nagotiating, good launchs, not breaking....

PSJ, how about bringing the car on drag week? is it capable of highway travel? I think an article about a mini-shootout at DW07 (in 30 days) would be cool.

What dates is Drag Week? 10.9, so running an index or something?

You'd be suprised how streetable this car is... It can run pretty good on pump gas, it's only 11:1 compression. I'm not sure if I can take that time off but I'd be open and I can see if any of my guys want to drive it.

PSJ, it's the week of Sept. 10th. - 14th. Starts in Cordova IL, ends in Cordova IL. This year the routes are shorter because the faster guys are a bunch of puss.. I mean, to make the drive easier for the guys with racecars :-)


It would be cool if you came out. Car would get in hot rod magazine, etc.

I'm still waiting on a response John. You opened your **** holster but then ran away with your tail tucked between your legs, as usual.

I wanted to run you heads up motor to motor, but know you will bitch out just like you did on Pinks.

Various sponsors paid for the parts, Speed Inc tunes it and does the work, Haider drives it. I don't know why I'm talking to you. If that thing doesn't go into the tens on motor, burn it to the ******* ground!

Good day

Sure Matt, how about an RSD at some point.

Regarding your last sentence, blah blah blah who gives a crap what you say, I doubt you ran 126 cam only you must have been in the generous lane at US41.... burn.

Right back at ya *******. I don't give a **** what YOU say. Oooooh, big bad Pro Stock John doesn't believe that a car I built went 10.85 @ 126. Maybe it's because you have never built anything YOURSELF and are ******* jealous. No need to hate John. If you wanted advice, I would be more than willing to give it like I do every day on this site. Just don't come off like a ******* bitch like you have been.

Clearly you got the US41 +4mph gift that day, your roach ran 11.2's most of the time, and at like 121mph.

And I'm f'g with you, kinda like your last post to me right?

My 11.2s @ 121 were on 28x10.5x15 hence the lousy 60fts (stiff sidewall, remember Larry at Speed inc giving me **** ), TCI SSF4000 (only flashed to 3800), and the TSP 231/237. I can't remember where the thread is, but it's around.

My 10.85s @ 126 (actually my 10.85 was at 125.9, and my 10.89 was at 126.4) was done with a 4600 converter, TSP MS3 237/242 cam, a 26" MT Drag Radial, and less weight.

Yes, I'm ******* with you John. Like you said to me in your last PM, I want to have your baby...

I don't think you know my car Haider. I have a 100% bone ******* stock LS1 in it with a motor converter that isn't coming out just for one race. Stock rockers and valvetrain with 65,000 miles on it. Your guys **** has a built shortblock, plus a healthy cam, heads, is lighter, and has two kits on it. I can't hang spray to spray.

Huh?

The BOC guys look shaky for Memphis, so we are just going to run the car in a couple of classes in the LSX Shootout. That way folks can enjoy this sweet car. I have posted this numerous times.
