I got to run Preston first round, he has a good chance VS my poor little 6 speed car.

Cant get any credit for being only 6 speed car?

Did anybody see the black c5z sitting over by holley tent, black ccws with red on them? Has 347 with an f1.. first time hearing one in person... the saying about gates of hell opening up to swallow your soul or babies or whatever, is true!!!
car is straight nasty! 23# 900+rw. Possibly my favorite, or close, actual street car.. Sound is insane!

SAMs car was running hard as usual!

I have my lady with me, that's all I can do or I get in trouble!

Sorry not exact

We won the 8.5 race by chevy high performance. We are flat out pumped we came and won that! I just really want to say thanks to those guys for sponsoring the class!

Yep, been fighting boost controller issues all weekend and a non-working line lock.

That pass was the final round for the 8.5 tire class. Just a fun *** drivers race. He had me covered until the 330 when I finally got the car hooked up. The tune was just too hot for the 8.5 and i shook the tires in 1st and 2nd pretty bad. At the stripe margin of victory was a .01

We went back to the pits and were wondering what to do next...we really wanted to see if that tune would hold on the 275, so we swapped oh tires, registered for 275 and let it rip. Car hooked great and we got some good data. There's a little left in the tune still and we haven't even cranked on the boost yet. I think we run koolrayz 1st rd tomm. Battle of the two heavyweight cars, haha. I am going to throw every kitchen sink we have in the tune at him! See if the ole' iron 6.0 holds her own against that ERL monster.

Short of being a PITA to get the car to do a burnout everything has been going really well!

That was me, mr luck lol...I know what rpm to launch my car to get diff et's. It's all a math game lo
