Do it in April and I will be there, hundy in hand 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.

Umm, running within a tenth of your dial isn't close enough.

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!

Gutted race cars pretending to be true street cars, I think Ellis has his down to about 1800lbs.
