Gotcha, I figured there was some sort of inside joke. Arm Drop would have been more fun for me, if I was racing!

Hopefully autox doesn't require a burnout, we've seen that trick from you!!!

I might head up with the camaro. I don't know how long I'll stay. Just depends on the cars that are there.

the f-body was made for scca racing in the late 60's, it was made to compete with the mustang.... im almost sure any car can do both but some might say turning is a little harder than going in a straight line

I see you've got aftermarket exhaust. . . if you gut the car and drive it like you stole it, you should be low 12s. . . I got 12.18 N/A, with LTs, exhaust and ET Streets. . . I also got to rebuild both the trans and the diffy, but it got the job done

Thats moving out! Auto?

I have ET Street Radials on it, but the clutch wasn't having it. 2.0's is all I could pull out of it. Its a street car, so I can't gut it. A clutch and I'll be 12s.

i would consider having frost do your tune if your going to go the mail order route...bigger shops arent going to spend much time on your flash....
