I'm glad to hear Rodney took care of you, Ryan. He's a hell of a guy.

Slow 5.0.- You are the best run he has had other than Terry in his Cobra. And after watching the video, I'd say you got him, but with a longer run It Could have changed ??? He said his boost was Just starting to really come on when you guys let out. But never-the-less a win is a win!
Good Run Man!

Yea it was a good run.. his car does pull hard. We did about a 45-50 to 130 pull. I didnt have any more gearing with 3.27's I topped out 4th. If his boost hasnt kicked in yet by then, somethings wrong ;-)

It wasn't me persay, more the person who I bought the car off of. I put about 100 miles on it before it wouldn't move anymore......

Even if I had caught it early, I'm afraid the damage was already done.

Yeah that was a good race, I've been seeing some damn good ones here lately.
Yeah, He said his car pulls harder at higher speeds (70mph+), and thats what he was talking about when you guys raced when he said his boost was just starting to really come on!...
I'm assuming at lower speeds, his car doesn't feel/perform as well as at higher speeds.

Been lurking a while. I have a black 00 SS w/ z06 wheels. Just finished a 403 w/ Trickflow heads, 240's or so cam, true duals, 9 inch, etc. Should be out to play as soon as break in and tune are done. Currently has about 9 miles on the break in.

Too much rain today to bother about tonight.
Just heard on the radio that roads are flooding and bridges are washing out south of Indy. Stay safe, folk.

Yeah, but if it ever dropped out of boost it would sink like an LS-1 (I mean, a rock).
