Did you read my mind and know I was going to say that 2 pages later?

Please explain, it is creeping me out.

Fair enough.

Are you aware of what bolt cars are capable of though?

It seems like no one is catching this but you change your argument every time, just frigen man up and say "damn your car is faster than mine, props to you for building a better car." theres no sense in arguing if you arnt going to go out and go to the strip and run head to head because on paper you loose.

if your going to keep talking and talking just let the paper work do that math for you, he ran a better 1/4 than you BEFORE his new set up.. with a bigger engine, more HP/TQ, and an MSD 2 step he will beat you, there is no question.

Now this is NOT to say im saying you shouldnt race him because who knows? maybe he starts in reverse (unlikely) or misses a shift, **** happens.

Stopsign actually makes less power with the new setup. Will still run quicker though.

Like I have already said. I was never going to run him on the street for those legitimate reasons. I will run him at the track and I'll have no excuses, win or lose.

I said what I had to say in second post of this thread. I haven't changed anything from that.

You have a stout running bolton car there's no doubt but there is a point when you must realize that you might have bitten off more than you can chew! Do you have 1.8 rockers or something? When my car was a bolt on stalled auto I ran a best of 12.60@107mph which is normal for what I had in the car. My buddies 2002 camaro went 11.80@112mph with a bolton stalled auto with 1.8 rockers in the car. Before he put the rocker arms in and retuned it the car ran a best of 12.40's which is on the faster side of the scale for a full weight bolton car.
