hell you'll get it figured out, my 1st car i took to the track was an 01 Z06 with bolt-ons, cam, gears, and a wet nitrous kit and the best i could get with out the nitrous was a 12.3 on my street tires.
i guess shane is whipped, i never seen him wear shorts or flip flops, she must be picking out his cloths. so far i haven't ordered anything for my dry kit because my car is still in the shop for the trans. its been in the shop since feb 8th and i got it back for the pinks all out race and it wasn't right then so they told me to go ahead and race it because it had to come back out anyway and now i haven't got it back yet (they can't get it to stop makin that terrible sound when it shifts).

Anyone know of a good body shop? I got a outlaw ws9 hood and need it and probably all the car painted since its got some spots on the body that need some attention. Looking for a good deal, but I dont want the paint flaking off in a couple of months either.

I broke about three stock center sections with a cam only 6 speed car. They always break where the rear pinion bearing is. I'll see if I can round up some pics.
I bought a Strange center section, spool and a billet pinion support and never had any more troubles. My car wasn't really that fast either, high 11.2's and high 1.5x 60fts

Not with his setup. I think he has a 6 spd car.

I'd feel a lot better if I go with some 5/8 studs here soon....might as well get rid of these 31 splines and go 35 also

my old Z06 was silver but it looked white from a distance sometime and i did have a white camaro later. when i had the chevelle at pauls i think i was getting some gears, i would have loved to put a BB in there but i got the vette and decided i liked it more so i got rid of the chevelle. right after i got rid of the chevelle i totaled my vette so thats when i got the white camaro.
