I don't think anyone has any illusions that he has a full-weight car. But the other 11-second cam-only guys didn't run that number, did they?

There's only 2 ways to go fast-
1.More power
2.Less weight
This is no secret,anybody in thier right mind
would not go to the extremes I have to run these
numbers.
That's why I am the Quickest.
(someone has to be,right?)
DriveaTransam's car is a monster for what it has done.
Butcher's car is unGodly fast Bone stock.
(and I mean Bone stock-off the showroom floor)
I might as well strap a bottle to it and break
another record while I'm at it.
I told ya I was just getting started.
Very,VERY few things can Equal that feeling
I get when I see the time ticket that bests' the
time I was shooting for.

dude, I don't mean to be an ***. . . but why don't you mention that you have milled heads. . . even if you claim they are not ported, at least you let people come to their own conclusion.

I mean, milling the heads may have given you as much as 10 or 20hp. And anybody in their right mind could've spent an hour to clean up the heads. (if you've seen the difference between heads from a slow car from the factory versus heads from a factory freak, you'd understand)

Guys in the MFBA will be running around on 100% bone stock heads wondering why they can't run the same number as DriveATransam.

Fact is, your numbers are hauling ***, even for a car from the midwest that'd have fully ported heads.

ok mgreen, you totally got me i have milled heads. ill have to tell everyone that i DONT Have a ported TB too so people dont get confused and think that i have one. ill also tell them that i have a small stall so they dont think i have some ungodly huge stall. maybe i should tell everyone i have a steel driveshaft soaking up all my power? whatever though, theres always a hater somewhere ive said it countless times, ill pull the manifold and headers off for a price of 1500 bucks. if they are ported at all, ill give you the money, if they arent, you pay me. i cant wait till i get some ported heads and run 10s just so i can shut you cry babies up. then maybe i can beat sean

Roy , How come you haven't told anyone about your direct-port nitrous system?
I'm sure that's worth a tenth or two. :p

Please don't even begin to think that I wish to get involved in a pissing contest....however....milling heads can be good for a decent increase in compression ratio, and a corresponding increase in HP - even without porting.

Damn LS1 heads flow too good from the factory anyways...hence the great "cam-only" numbers you often see.
