Sounds good I will, it should be noticeably faster than last year, to bad I didnt run it at the track to be able to compare it this year... As soon as it warms up a little, a group should get together and go to muncie for the day. I would like to go within the next couple weeks.
Out of curiosity do you have any track times with call911?

It's been a while so I don't remember exactly, but its something like 11.2 @129 was its best time.

I was on the way to work this morning and realized I had a headlight out, and was in Garrett about 15 seconds from my work and got pulled over at about 3:45am by a State Trooper. He asked if I was on the way home and told them I was on the way to work. I told him that I realized my headlight was out this morning on my way to work. And I ended up getting a written warning by the State Trooper.

Yea ill go, I work that fri night but maybe I can get it off
Yea with a trap like that its capable of being in the deep 10's just gotta get it to hook up. thats what I am worried about when I go is traction.
My luck I'll bite to hard and snap a halfshaft. Think im going to get some et streets for when I do go though should help
Nothing showing what it is capable of, if I can run as close as I did to Scotts Z28 and he is almost in the single digits. But my car has always hooked up better on the street than the track.
It's been a while so I don't remember exactly, but its something like 11.2 @129 was its best time.

Someday I'll bite the bullet and drop the coin on skinnies that will fit, or someday find someone with them who will let me borrow them.
Good luck at the track though man, keep me and the others in the loop.

My problem wasn't even hooking up as much as it was keeping it on the track/keeping it straight. I had ET streets as well and cut a really good 60' time, but since I have huge Baer brakes on the front, it takes a very specific and expensive skinny on the front, leaving me traveling all over the place up front and borderline out of control with my big ballin' 18" wheels up front.

found this over on SVT performance. Goes for both F-bodies and Cobra brake equipped cars.

Maybe you guys can clarify for me something that I know 
probably could eventually.The G8 GT is RWD right? Ok the Impala SS is FWD right? Are they not on the same platform or am I mistaken. Or am I wrong about both of these cars?????

Correct. The G8 GT is RWD, and the most recent iteration of the Impala SS is FWD with the LS4. They are not on the same platform, I believe the G8 GT is on one of the Holden platforms, though I do not remember the designation.

With GM hipo getting the boot, or rather an extended stay in other departments(automobile magazines way of putting it) has there been anymore talk of more of the general's platforms going RWD?

When is the SS coming out? Or did that die when they shut down that division of GM?
