I would take it as great praise if I were on a lil' ol 5 man team and got the attention of a big outfit. This is much more fun to read about than "so-and-so sets the NA stock displacement recod for such and such car on such and such date with stock rod bolts and 3 day old oil on a Tuesday over 50 degrees during a full moon" bullshit we see too much on the threads.

So, I guess you think there is a drag racing law that states car owners must drive their own cars? Who cares! Its a shop car, they have a racing team, and they have a team driver. Does that make you think any less of the car?

You know your a sucess when a shop come after you as an individual. Your an automatic big underdog H, no place to go but up or stay the same. On that note, go gather a few hundred more ponies and lets make it happen. BTW, thanks Hardcore, for making winter interesting for the rest of us onlookers.

In the video, was that a race car or a mosquito fogger. I lost dsight of it halfway down the track.

Since it was down in Florida where there are lots of skeeters, I'm going to vote for mosquito fogger...

It was only five years ago that this community started in for the 8's. For the longest time the LT1's has seem to have hit a wall at 9.11, then 9.04 but never the 8 second pass. Eventually an LT1 car did get to the 8's, but it wasn't the first there. (not that it matters when you do it, just part of a timeline for my little history lesson here)

Eventually it was an LS1 car that would break the 8 second barrier, and in a matter of two years here we are knocking on the 7 second zone. Not to mention doing all of this on a torque arm style suspension, thats just silly.

Good Luck to all of the teams this year, keep the wrenches turning. Team APE will be hard at work getting ready for the 2005 season so we can join this dance as well.
