Sounded stock the night i saw them race but its been about 2months now.

My little brother knows the guy in the GTO and not too long ago he did install some long tubes. He also has a K&N cold air intake and thats it, untuned as well. I didnt think they would be that slow, I'm thinking it might just be the driver

wait a min... wait a min...i think i know u. Are u the big guy with the loud *** 408 on spray? The orange T/A is J.R. - he ran a 12.00 @ 117, however i will admit i think the style route he took was a lil goofy as well but, hey??? Yea the GTO was slo but im pretty sure its an auto - little room for driver error. At Penwell on a normal day a stock LS1 Fbod will avg. around a 14.0 @100 +/- a fraction. A stock LS1 GTO would prolly do a solid 3 to 4 tenths slower at prolly like 97ish. Even having a few boltons wont change that alot until he tuned it. Anyway, yea i saw the red SRT8 Charger on the black viper rims. He bested a 13.8 @102. My bud in the blue Superbee ran a 13.3 @107 and the black one ran the same as myself. My boy ina SRT8 Jeep ran a 14.00 @98 and smashed up some GT's. Good times!!! Although i was a lil pissed that i only got 2 runs in 4 hours - fukin junior dragsters!!!!!!

Yeah thats me except my car is N/A. Do I by any chance happen to know you? I'm pretty bad with names. Sorry about not posting my vids yet, all kinds of things happening this last weekend with the boxing fight and football games and what not. I still have my crappy factory 10 bolt and trans, hopefully by the end of the year I can upgrade my driveline and should help me out some more.

My boy w/a silver Firehawk and i spoke w/u back wen u and i both were running 13.3 - that was wen i was runnin my 99 MBM TA. I think it was like the 1st Penwell event. I spoke w/r cousin who was driving it at DTR even before that but i too cant remember names. I was busy racin, but my boy Nick mentioned he saw u.

Myself, the black Charger and the Superbee all plan on gettin dyno tuned soon - we all oughta put down over 400 to the wheels on a dynojet and i plan on doin it on the stock cam. It might not be by much, but i oughta do about 410-20ish wen theyre done. U kno ill have vids of that.

Oh yeah thats right I remember you now, hell yeah man congratulations on finding the nice looking 300C. Are you guys going to Texas Speed, they are the ones who hooked me up and installed my 408. I also picked up their Texas Giant camshaft and PRC Stage 2 LS6 heads. I put down down 446 horses to rear wheels on their dyno. I highly recommend them and dont forget about the vids like I obviously have

Tonight with the cold air and Diablo tuner i gained 4 tenths. Ran a 13.5 @ 103 but lost both runs - one against my friends SRT8 Charger w/a cam, ud pully and a diff cold air setup, untuned. He ran a 13.54 @ 103 and i ran a 13.59 @ 103 CLOSE!!! My boy Johnathan ran a 13.4? @ 105ish on a bit stouter setup in his SRT8 superbee. Watched a bone stock SRT8 Jeep run a 14.0 @ 97, and beat a mustang GT in the process. All of the posted times were run at a track that is at 3000ft and a DA of around 4000ft. Its late ill post vids tomarro. Oh and although i only halfass looked, reddragon14 i dont think i saw u???
**** i probably did have my audio turned down but yeaa, that Nismo ran fairly well against him that 1 night i saw them. Im back in Balmorhea now, so i havent been out around OD or anything. So im sure a few cars out there have upgraded since then.

TSP only does GM LS based platforms - i had both my SS and my T/A dyno tuned there. Those vids are on youtube. They allow another group of guys to use the dyno for work on stangs now (so ive heard) but they prolly wouldnt touch a MOPAR. Johnathan says that this place outa Houston hes talkin to is the closest REPUTABLE tuner that specifically do our cars. Were all payin $335 ($1000) to get it done - i paid $400 at TSP - although it was just about the best $400 i ever spent on my LS1's performance. Some guys bag on em out here but i thought their tuning was topnotch. I ran my 12.8 on a 145K motor, old *** M/T radials, stock cam w/bolt ons, and most impressively - at Penwell in a 4600ft DA. They did good, but dont to HEMI's.

Hey man after a couple of weeks of messing around I finally got a couple of videos. One of them is just walkaround of my car, please disregard the stupid "EVALUATION COPY" banner, rookie mistake
The other video is just some mixed races at Penwell, I think the second race is my car and the red Charger. My brother drove and got 12.8 on the first run, then like the 4th or 5th race is my car again where he got a little bit better and pulled a 12.5 with out going over the starting line like in the first race.
