Default Rt.1 in Philly tonight...

Was it someone here?

Couldn't tell if it was a Forumla Firehawk or Formula with hawk wheels on it.

Anyway, dude...bad *** car. You raped my Vette with no lube

Hopefully you're a member here and see this, I'd love to know what's done to your car.

it was either Nick's firebird (sleeperstyle) or another guy that hangs out with us (LS1stang)...they are the only 2 pewter formulas that i know of around these parts. both of them are pretty quick cars....but you would have lost alot worse to Nicks if the mighty spray was used.

I hear there is a nice street scene in Philly out by the airport. Is this true? It's pretty weak where I live, I need to find a cool place to cruise.

you have the maroon vette... it was me... mods in sig. you are my FIRST kill with the th400. somehow later in the night on my n20 tune but not using the n20 i took out a 02-03 z06. i really don't know how, guess he couldn't shift or something, my car was soo rich it was breaking up at the top of 2nd gear and i short shifted it, but he didn't gain

wish he pulled over, i'd tell him to go to harris and get it tuned or something because he SHOULD have pulled me up top.

but yeah, good run man. i was actually pissed i didn't beat you by more, it wasn't really that bad of a killing. i need a rear/gears BAD \

btw jims formula (other pewter formula) has bogarts on the front and stocker wheels on the back last night, waiting on the rears. AND my wheels are stock chrome rims..

later

Yeah I know Jim's car. So he only got the fronts? LOL. That must suck. I was over at his shop last week and he couldn't wait for them.

You have a bad *** car man. That ****** sounds mean!!

I figured you had about 2 car lengths on me when we shut down. Good run

That sounded good for a cutout. Most of them sound like complete ***.

Now I have an excuse as to why I lost...if you kept the cutout close I would've won. Yeah...that's it....

Doubtful man. I just ran at Atco and ran a 13.12@107(couldn't get the Nittos to hook at all).

Oh well, you gave me motivation for a LS6 intake, tune and some giggle gas if it's not enough

Here's a dumb question, I'm about 10 minutes from Morrisville on RT1, out near lawrenceville. You guys ever have cruises or anything? Nobody around here while I'm at school and I always need an excuse to expend some gas...

blvd on sunday nights. people cruize around, maybe later on you get a run in. gotta be careful though. most people just come out to hang.

if you wanna come out, the sunoco @ haldeman and rt 1 (blvd) is where some people go, also the steak & ale @ old lincoln and rt1 and alot of imports are at the roosevelt mall, cottman and the blvd.

pm me. that goes for ALL philly area ls1 guys. ls1's RULE the blvd already, so why not bring some more down.
