Lanes 1 and 2 had some really nice cars! Dave ran pretty well tonight along with some other people. My friend went out there for the first time in his 300C SRT8. Managed to get it down to a 13.2!

Actually that was my uncle with the C6 vette, it was only his second time at the track with it, he was really happy to break into the 12's. I had the GTO. Sadly my second run reared an ugly transmission problem, but here is my first run against my uncles vette. Well, he's in the other lane, you just don't get to see him in the camera frame.

GTO run In-car

Looks like I'll be buying a tranny with that Torque convertor sometime this summer heh.

Good footage man...and bad *** ride man!

I talked to the Red C5 Supercharged vette owner. I think his name was Dennis?

Nice guy. He said 10.80's on spray 11.10's just the charger.

Wow, i did not know that was you! I forgot you had bought a red GTO after the silver one. Nice to see ya. Hope you get that tranny problem fixed soon and youll be out when i get my car ready to run at the track again.

And the owner of the Red C5 S/C goes out to the corner all the time, if not you can usually find him at the ricer races. Pretty cool guy
