Its awsome seeing 1000hp and 2000hp cars doing burnouts on a public street at the end of the event.

Dude I'd love to go to that, but I don't know where anything is... I don't suppose I could treat you to dinner for a tour of the hotspots? I'm heading back to Orlando tonight so I won't have internet for a little while. If you would, give me a call during the week sometime 334-718-9595 I'd really appreciate it!

Yeah, real smart putting money on a car that has full bolt-ons, heads and a 150 shot that only runs 11.58 @ 121 MPH

**** I ran that in my Z28 over 3 years ago N/A stock cubes weighing 3550 lbs.

Once Jeff gets his launch worked out that car will run 10's.

Good day sir!

it won't take you long to figure out the hot spots here. If you want action it'll come to you.

make sure you do suspension too, all that power is useless if you can't hook it up.
