Default Us LT1's better be at the Spring Break Shootout

Guys, we need to represent in the LT1/ls1 Shootout. I'll be there with my itty bitty LT1 which im sure wont do much damage, but you gotta bite at the ankles sometimes <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> . So who all is gonna be there to show the LS1'ers whats up?

If I didnt have school I was actually going to drive down for it <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="gr_sad.gif" /> Looks like a great event....cant wait to hear how everyone runs.

Hopefully the LTx crowd will runs some competitive times against the LS1ers <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

I will be there and I hope them LS1 guys bring their A game because I've got mine. If I decide to spray, I should easily be I the mid 10's. If not I will run in the 11 sec class. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

ou812/z28, good luck with the motor
Jason Short, schools not THAT important <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
BadASSLT1, Thats what im talking about...REPRESENT!!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

hehe, in all seriousness though guys, it would be great to have as many LT1's out there are can be, but everybody has schedules and sometimes its hard to adjust schedules. best of luck to you May 31st. any of you with friends that have LT1's, tell them to bring it on, we need to show what the "old school"(ok, not so old school) is all about. keep posting if yall are coming guys, I would like to get a list of how many people will be there and possibly get a group picture of all the LT1's that showed up with all the trophys that we beat the LS1's out of.

P.S. Bobby Simpson, if you are reading this, you better show up just to talk smack <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

i took a vacation the week of march 17th, didnt think about the shootout when i did that or i would have taken it that week and gone <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="gr_sad.gif" /> . i probably wouldnt have done much damage to the LS1s there anyways

<--- just walked in the door from laying my first set of 200' long, 14.5" wide slick marks in the neighborhood for the year <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> ...... on 6 cylindars <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="gr_sad.gif" />

Just got my LTCC (Ls1 coil conversion for LT1's) in today. I'll be showing it off at the RCR shootout. I'll be in the 11.0 - 11.99 index unless Tech is ultra critical about cages. I 'hear' they'll be a little loose on the requirements. Hope so.

We'll see how the schedule looks. I told Tony I'd help out running the show but I haven't heard from him. I didn't get a room and I'm sure their aren't any left so I'll play it by ear. Besides, its not like me to miss a smack session <img border="0" alt="[pimp]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_pimp.gif" />

Default Re: Us LT1's better be at the Spring Break Shootout

I can't make it for this one. started building a new house so that is gonna keep me home for a while. You guys have fun, I wish I could go since my car seems to be consistant 11.0s in the old setup and should go high 10s now. Would be perfect for the 11-11.99 class. Oh well..I did my part at the thunder shootout by placing second in the Modified street manual class so you guys will have to take up my slack on this one.

Good luck guys.

I was gonna go and have the car ready minus the motor <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="gr_sad.gif" />
Since i sold the lt1 im not really welcome anyhow <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> Hopefully i will be able to make some shake down runs soon on the new motor.
