All the entrants have to have their $500.00 entry fee in by Oct. 8.

I dont care whats under the hood as long as its a sbc style motor(LS1, LT1, or old style SBC)

Still looking forward to the race. I think it will be a good time nonetheless. It's amazing what a few beers can do to overcome a couple small rules

Paul,

I wasn't implying that you were singling out ARE I just wanted clarification on the rule as I was confused.

Thanks,
Chris

Chris lets not get hostile But your refer to as the fastest LS1. Does that mean if that motor was in a Outlaw mustang and running 8.0's it should still be allowed to race?

I'm sure about 10 or 15 people looked under the car at bowling green and 30-40 more in the local Michigan/ Toronto clubs to attest that the car has a off the self BMR Torque Arm and Off the shelf BMR (stock length) lower control arms. Wade does not bother with these situations so he does not care to show pics. Its not the first time this has happened and not the last I'm sure. Damn ARE motors, get us in trouble everytime!

How many people that looked at your suspension knew what they were looking at?

Did you guys say that you use a stock LS1 block?

I know, I ask alot of questions cause mama said if you wanna know you gotta ask. Guess thing is Dave, you never seem to answer me

I'm very anxious for November. I think the only thing that could hinder the spirit would be rain cause everybody is anxious to race and see some of the fastest doorslammer f-bodies in the country going at it. Pissin' matches set aside, thats what its all about anyway. And to all of you that think this has gotten out of hand, this would be a boring sport if there weren't some "spirited attitudes" to go along with it

Big Show there is way too many questions to answer. But the Silver Z uses a stock LS6 block with ARE re-sleeving to a 4.100 bore. No C5R block used ever.

Dave, I only asked a few questions and now you've answered one. So here they are in a nice neat order:

*What tranny are you guys running?
*What block are you running? <this was answered>
*Why do you make excuses about sending pics?
*Why won't you come clean about your suspension being more than it is?
