I know Eric was sand-bagging, he said as much on here. The 12.3 he ran was on a 12.8 dial. One of these days he'll have to leave the long petal planted & show his stuff. Unless money is his only game. I know a lot of people like to play games at the track, and that's cool (for them). Personally, I will give you all I got everytime. If you beat me (like Ryan or Bill did), you da man!

The only time I sand bag at the track was when I didn't have a bar in the car! Everytime I go out, I am going for it!

Ya know, if someone is sand bagging, it don't matter to me... if the best they run is a 12.5 and the car is capable of 11s, the best they ran is still a 12.5.

Its the Hypertech flowpack thingy you just can't screw with that kind of power adder! I had to sell you that truck it was just too much for me to handle. Not to mention the much needed brake upgrades and handling issues. But man in a straight line......

If the guy wants to brag about his quick Fairmont GT, by all means go for it, what do I care. Now if he came on everyday and bugged the **** out of everyone as a ridiculous troll then maybe...

But my opinion doesn't matter really its the moderaters job to make those choices. Seriously even if his Mustang ran 8's would anyone here really care? **** there are rusted out Vegas that would destroy my car but I really could care less....

This is an LS1 site and of course we think Mustangs are POS's...truth can hurt. Dude can talk all the **** he wants, run 8 second quarters and at the end of the day he's still driving the 80's punk mobile I'll take my colonge drenched TA's or White trash dream mobile Z28's anyday.

I won't even waste my gas on a mustang unless it has a Cobra badge on the side of it...even then most of those are fake

I'm kinda kidding of course...well maybe I'm not

It wouldn't matter if me if he ran 8's if he actually went to the track and ran 8's. What bothers me is someone talking like they run 8's and then running 12's when they go to the track. Doesn't matter what the car is.

It would be like me talking **** to Santa saying I was gonna smoke his WS6 with my WS6. Even though neither car has ran in it's current configuration, it's pretty obvious to most people here, just looking at the cars, that he would destroy me very convincingly.

I don't know I just think its funny. When I had my 93 there was this dude with a 01 Cobra spent all this money on a Bassani exaust and other bolt ons. He talked all kinds of smack on the mustang boards about my car (he was friends with a friend of mine with a "one off" saleen cobra LOL)

At the track he showed up all little, young, hat sideways and with attitude. Think he ran a 13.7 I ran 12.8's all day in my lowly LT1 car. It would have been worse in the half mile. I just thought it was funny. Then he started making excuses. It really doesn't matter to me if people talk ****.

BTW I wouldn't count yourself out in a race with Mark with the weight difference you might have the advantage

Alrighty then....add a trip to the Portland track this spring.

Zeke would have the wind-drag coefficient over me with that dome, that's for sure.

You guys crack me up.....

I'm thinkin 400rwhp in a 3200lb car with a 6 sp & street tires is probably your biggest issue Bobby. But it's just a guess.....
