Welcome I'm north AL are you the Greg that used to or still has the SRT4? Wait nvm I know who you are you got beside my SS a few months back on 72 we were both going to the O'reilly car meet. I tried to get you to run me but you backed off and messed with the 97SS directly behind me. Whats up with that you would have beat the LS1 and lost to the LT1. I know this for a fact that LT1 is no joke. Not calling you out but next time run me and see what happens plz. I'm tired of beating up on stangs and want a challenge

Its not really a call out. I am just saying that next time you have a car try to run you man up and mess with the car that would supposedly have a better chance to win (LS1) and not the apparent weaker (LT1) but its alright maybe I'll see him around and run it. I know I will lose but its all in fun plus I would like to see where I stand against a cammed LQ9
