I will go $250 on a 2 out of 3 bracket race.

If i race everyone for $$, then how will I mod my car? Anyway, it's me and Ellis at some point in time, for sure. A freindly grudge match, win, loose or cry. Now why don't we do what we were talking about before, Grudge day racing, and we will see who is King of the GM products, any comer welcome, one large to enter and winner takes all. Hopefully we can find a couple F-bods to run faster than 12.7 modded, or...

I'd love to make some money on R&R, are we doing winner take all or paying top Y body and top F body?

There needs to be some rules drawn up here and I think to make it fair the race should be held on undisputed grounds, like Reneagde(plus I don't have to get over the pass)

I do get the customary LT1 head start though

I can dial and go, that is what weather data is for. I can normally guess with in .01 of what the car will run.

Are we talking about your car? running low 10's and being a true street car?

If so, I thought for a true street care you should still have your HVAC.... Lol

agreed. true street car doesnt have any interior gutting for weight loss. It has to be factory weight or more to be a true street car and retain hvac if it came with it from the factory. beefing up a suspension or drivetrain isnt an issue.

great now we are getting into opinions of what people think a street car is. My opinion is the same as the cops, as long as you have basic equipment and tabs your all good!
