Clown, that's not the answer for the absolute best E.T., but it's a method of running 12s when you've got a car that can trap 110+ and you don't have stickies. That's all it would take with that much power. I suppose you advocate a 5K clutch dump on normal street radials. But then again, you're the one who needs to see something like this to believe it, which makes me think you've been the guy running the 13.1s at 113.

LS3 Corvette runs 12 on factory radials? Bah...I've got to see it to believe it! No one runs 12s without drag radials or slicks!

Ahem..



Best pass that nite..street suspension (Bilstein Shocks, Eibach Springs), just bolted up the radials, had the T56 in it, and slow shifted my way down the track just having fun..
The 95* and 90% humidity didnt help..and as soon as the sun went down the dew set, so I went home.

Next time out will be on 28" slicks, drag shocks, and the MVB TH350/4500 Stall. I assure you the results will be quite different.

Now if you think a 1984 MCSS is a tin can then I want you to explain your logic there sir..that full frame car is by far no tin can.

It's amazing how one question I ask you that is totally unrelated to anything about any of our cars comes with an automatic response from you insulting my ride. You must have something in your life that has you very butthurt.

Then again they say that when someone messes with you they like you.. well sorry to disappoint but judging by your avatar I'm not

That 396 SR Engine of his is a bad ***..watch the **** out..

It'll plow low 13's all day long.

There's no reason to cry, sweetie. A Vette's front/rear weight ratio is far different than a f-body. Leaving "off idle" in a manual is virtually impossible and retarded. It all depends on track prep and tire used at what rpm to leave.

Read much? Motortrend, Car and Driver, Road & Track, hell even Edmunds ...any damn body can get a C6 vette to run low-mid 12's on STREET TIRES on an unprepared track/road. ****, the Z06 is good for mid 11's, ZR1 is 11.1 on STREET tires. You must be thinking C5 or something.

It's shabby, mervin. Very shabby. Please fix. Either you don't tell anyone local what's done to that Dale mobile or they just don't know any better. Hell maybe you just don't know no better...

Like I said, I ask you a simple question and you automatically defer to bashing on cars.

Regardless of what I have it's an LSX in something that it didnt even come with..so when you get out of the generics of having an engine in a car it had from the factory you can step up to my level of mechanical ability and criticize my work. Until then you have nothing to compare to, you are out-classed.

**** the S10 has your turd out-classed..and that's a cam-only bolton LS1..

So what's the story on the new name?
You trying to get an alais for when you break up with whatever mod's dick you are currently sucking and get finally banned?
We all know this would had happened by now..you offer very little technical expertise, about 95% of what you say is instigating garbage, and your professionally built car is no where near what it should be due you lack of driver skills.

Is your purpose here to be the #1 "LS1Tech Tool"?

@ahritchie..the guy we are speaking with, eventhough it looks to be on the maturity level of a high-schooler, is in his early 40's. He jumps on here to talk **** inbetween his World Of Warcraft battles. That'll give ya an idea what you are dealing with.

I post to make it clearly simple calling him out on the truth and he cowers away from when he gets called out.

Maybe I have to find his facebook again..that **** was epic..

Lol..that guy has douched around long enough to where alot of people started digging into him..then ofcourse a couple of his friends will chime in with some good embarrassing **** to throw into the pot..

So combine years of doucheness + pissing a bunch of people off + friends with good stuff = a pretty good roast..

But in all reality we need to leave old Brian alone..he's in his 40's, got a wife, kids, and those of us that know how it is to build a hot-rod with that we can understand that it's hard. I guess that's why he keyboard races more than anything, it's cheaper than gas and you dont need a carseat/babysitter.

I would seriously be that worked up too, mervin if I had to live through the embarrassment of the failed Dale mobile build. I'm sorry, but don't say I never told you so.

Didn't know people like SS RRR still existed. Maybe it's a bot, used to attract attention and ad revenue for this site. It could use a bit more programming...

Exactly as I said before..you steer away when you get called out for being a douche.

It's not even the model that was used for Nascar..that would be an Aerocoupe. You are old enough you shouldve known this.

What matters is it's a turd and you'll cry to anyone that will pay a spit worth of attention. Even a noob nine posts in claiming retarded crap about leaving "off idle" in a manual car and then getting bent when laughed at.
