lot of FAST old cars...but honestly, I was really disappointed with the 4th gen F-body's and the new GTO's. I didn't see anything hardly faster than a 12.5 sec

I didn't see anybody from the boards, but granted, I only watched the first time trial at 1:30 and then the 2nd and 3rd rounds later in the day

there was a low 9 second white camaro (4th gen) that was really hauling ***, only one that caught my eye. He made it to the 4th round, but I don't know how he did afterwards, I left. He was from Michigan...Rob Whitney
Don't know about the F-bodys but I was running a consistent 12.3 for three days and a GTO with a procharger was running 12.2's on Saturday. I lost in the first bracket Saturday by .006 to a 60's firebird with a 400 so I was out early. Did better Sunday. Went 3 rounds...red lighted against a 14 second car. Got the RPMs too high waiting for my light and brake didn't hold so I broke the beam early.

My car ran 10's all weekend 10.54 to 10.68 it was really hot out and when they started going round robin my car was not real happy.
I ended up runner up on Sunday in Pro. Trophy and cash.

Leos car (white TA) ran 11's all week I think he ran 11.75 on motor as he does not have the nos hooked up yet.

Saw that you were doing good...congrats. Wondered how the cars were going to hold up in the heat during the round robin. What kind of temps were you reading at the end?
