Shocker don't worry all you need is to beat the driver ... Thats not hard...Well unless your in a bench pressing war.....

SUMMER UPDATE - LT4 is at the machine shop should be about 2 weeks until its ready for reassembly. Transmission is finished ready to be picked up - Heads and Intake are at A.K. getting ported and fixed....Should be up and running hard soon.

Silver car Not sure but I ordered alot of parts just waiting.... I just hope to beat BigRob with no heads or intake LOL

If it has 4 tires and isn't leaking anything while he is sitting in the tech area, he will pass.

Everytime i've been over there it's been really relaxed. Like Matt said as long as it runs on its on power and isn't leaking your good to go. The only car i've seen them turn down was a mustang that tried to run with out a hood.

22X/23X .60X/.59X 11X+X HR5 lobe profile will work AWESOME in your combo terry. But DUAL springs will be in order though. PM me for the "X" numbers Terry. I will not be disclosing full cam specs on tech anymore, sense know ever listens.

If we did have an event, it would be in the summer. Probably early June or so.

I went in the 10s with my black Camaro and never had a roll bar nor cage in it. They didn't care.

Yeah, from what everyone has been saying in PMs and in here, it looks like more people would want it at the track. Like I said, less of a headache for everyone.
