Default Ran against my Twin

Ran against my Twin at the track.

My mods : Tune, CAI, LS6 intake , 1.8 rockers
Twin's mods : Tune, CAI , DRs, spring blockers

We were running similar times
His was 13.9 @ 98 MPH
Mine was 13.9@ 103 MPH.

He was killing me in the first 60' then my topend kicked in
I was on the left lane.

Man I wished we had more LS4 cars here. ****. I'd settle for any W Body cars that aren't owned by grandma and grandpa. All we have are F Bodies, Challenger/Chargers, and Mustangs out the *** here. Sad days...
