Boyce,

What is the picture in your signature?? Kinda looks like the top of a lawn mower engine, is that your new secret build up?

Well now I don't feel like such a dumbass when a young guy with young eyes didn't get it at first.

Only a 167mph.... what a slug... it's clearly not making the power of the LT1..... J/K of course

Both cars are awesome. Looks like a dead heat to the 7's to me. Sure would make an awesome heads up race though huh....

I'm thinkin Slugs are what the rest of us in the real world are driving!

I can remember not that long ago (or so it feels) that the really HOT street cars were running 11s. Now all it takes is heads, a cam & bolt-ons. In full dress with no juice I might add. The cars nowadays are just insane.

And yes, I would pay $$ to see these 2 cars go at it.
