And if yall thought the DSM was fast, just wait !!!
Yep im totally butthurt that the ugly turd beat the buick. I came to the conclusion a long time ago that people that own cars that should be fast, make them slow by there lack of driving skills.

well i ran that fox again. this time he was on full slicks and 150shot of juice. said he was around 550whp, ran from a super low roll, he jumped half a car on me in first, i reeled him in 2nd and put a good 3 to 4 cars on him in 3rd gear and kept pulling away from him.

He stated a few posts ago that he just cranked up the boost.

non sense; you got killed by a WS6 with around 400rwhp that weight more than this Fox 550rwhp. Not saying it didnt happen, but something is very wrong with this Fox.

I agree. I think he just looked liked he moved out quick b/c those cars were pretty slow. But that Fox Body "wow" that thing was a "turd"!


And I have been to a few street races where it was 1/8. All tho it's rare it is out there.

That's no excuse.

That was a cam only LS1. No one ever said it was fast. Just like no one ever said your 1g was fast or slow.

How much power are you making on your new setup?
