I am ATTEMPTING to get some magazine coverage, it would be badass for a HOT ROD event coverage. Good publicity as well!

If we can swing 2 or 3 a year, then this may get HUGE!

sounds good to me. i wish i had some skinnies , I'd like to get my 60 in the mid to low 1.5's. since the car is lowered its harder for me to come out harder.

skinnys dont make that much of a difference. i would be surprised to see a 0.03 reduction in 60' time - anyways. back on topic!

If you get a spot I`ll loan you the skinneys from the red car. Then you can run me on motor like you wanted Sat.
Congrats on winning a round in the NoBull by the way.

Can't, it's not GM specific. I was imformed that I am writing the article, and it's going to be for Car Craft as an online only deal, maybe the next one I can pull to get printed, but we will see. I will write it, borrow some pics and then see if the mag wants it. But it will be up at www.carcraft.com for sure! haha

True,m but what if he is running slicks in the rear and 9 inch wide radial in the front? Could spell disaster!

i'm sure they would help my 60 foot out cause it would be weight off the nose that would shift onto the rear tires better.

looks like i won't be racing or making it out there. I have my son this weekend. maybe I'll still come out and watch i dunno.

This event looks like it is going to be a lot of fun. Can't wait for tonight. I am just pumped to go to the drag strip and don't have to worry about the slow imports, or idiots that have no idea what they are doing.
