I am seeing 400+ HP in sig's but I damn sure dont hear them on the street, and an LS1 with 400+ hp can be heard. Just wanting to know where everyone is.
i guess i should change my location to tampa. i live in tampa now, but never changed it. im in lakeland like once a month for a couple hours visiting my parents.

Greg I'm not to sure about that. Dave made some changes on the pupra when he blew it up. It is a little faster. He was here this morning and said he was going to the track tonight.
We should be at lakeland next Thursday for some shakedown passes. Then maybe Orlando Friday for a couple of my lisc passes. You coming out to cheer me on? Bring the little one and i'll see if I can't take her down the track at Lakeland. Is she still wanting to race?

I ran him before Greg started doing his car. At the kumho tire show.
Heres one of him when we all went to SS about 3+ years ago. Its a little faster now.. But i'm sure he forgot how to drive it by now..

Thanks for all that Paula!! I dont remember ever running another T/A other that Paula,s orange and the wight one. Not to say I did not because you have my trap speed right on (104+). I have not run the car in a long time on any real tires Hell I dont think I have ever run the car on real tires. LOL. All my fastest passes have been on Nittos and spinning out of the hole. Soon real soon we will have a new best.
