I got one race this year and nothing but b.s since. It's nice to know I have a 9sec ls1 with stock rockers that passes emmisions and drives anywhere. I would have never believed it seeing my timeslips but several people told me so, so it must be true.

It died in minneapolis this year too. I was thinking of coming to chi-town but if it sucks there I won't waste the gas.

My rother has about 100 gallons of 109. He might let some of that go for cheap.

Getting 1 street race off during the whole season can be frustrating. Granted I've never had that when the car's up and running, but that would suck.

It's the no carpet Matt. I've been telling you that for too long. Posting your car's biography on the internet daily doesn't help either, but good luck with you're decision.


Let me know if you ever want to come back to the streets, the Snail will be waiting for you.
