Gonna be tough for who on a roll?

My best run at the track was 12.7 @ 117mph. That was on NT555Rs but I bogged out of the hole.

Lol. I took a 01 WS6 out for a test drive, It was quick for sure. But it was so uncomfortable. I didnt like the interior at all. Thats jmo, Im more of a Mustang guy. Always will be, but I respect anything thats fast.

There are plenty of f-bodys around here that run similar times. Probly just have to wait till the weather clears a bit.
I had a 90 notch supercharged about 12 years ago. Too cramped for my taste.

From the sound of those #'s sounds like your running a 2 valve motor, please correct me if I am wrong. I am not from MA but I am sure you can find someone. Just maybe not this time of season, things are thawing out soon.

Im having H/C installed in the next month or so im down once the weather gets nicer. I live on the North Shore. There are plenty of built LS cars down your way. Most people dont drive them this time of year.

Yah true, I usually dont go out looking for races though. Once in a while, but I get nervous with the cops around here.


Anyways, Like I said, just looking to have some fun. Looking to see how my car holds up against a cammed LS1.

Heres a couple pics of my car

I've probly seen you before. Grew up in Marshfield and cruised the south shore alot. During the summer I drive around there.

Just depends on which car I'm driving but most of the time I won't race anyone.

Nice car, like the color. So let me see, you only want to race another car you know you can beat or are you looking for a car that runs about the same as yours?
Whats your best time in the 1/4? MPH?
