Thanks for being honest! Good luck with the new stall, it should really wake the car up

Exactly, I have no need to "kill it" just for a timeslip either. I ran my car for fun, hoping to get a decent time and a trap that reflected my car running correctly. I got that, so I am pleased. I have a little more in it the way it sits, but I'm not driving to KC to get a tenth or 2.

I'm more depressed in hindsight that I won't be able to run the car with the newer setup I had and I'll be stuck as cameraman duty next time buddies and I hit up the track

We've been thinking of hitting up KCIR sometime since last time we went to CFR the track prep was to be desired

Also I found out they were both V6's and they live a town over, and yes there "kids" too. And I wasn't saying the LS1 was better than all cars... I meant it as I could beat them with it.

As for mods, I haven't done anything to make it faster yet. Alls I have done is replaced the headunit and stock speakers, a new driver side mirror (old one didnt adjust), and brake calipers. I am sorry if i seem like a "noob" I haven't had the car for that long and am still learning about it.

And I forgot who said it but they said they can beat my ls1 with their lt1, honestly its no big deal, you have obviously had more driving/racing experience.

Aww, everyone's friends. Let's see if we can keep it that way.

OP - just be careful and enjoy the ride, man.

Fast T - good luck with the stall. No reason that shouldn't get you your 11-second pass.

Boduke - Like you said, man, just enjoy your car. I know exactly what it's like to work through a H/C setup that's running less than stellar numbers. Just makes it more exciting when you start tweaking and seeing improvements.

SRZ - get that piece you call a car out of my garage soon or your new user title is going to read "Bikes > Cars". I did not enjoy walking outside into -3 degree temps this morning to start my car.

Thats it Pewter I don't know whats considered a stellar number. At my local track there are n/a h/c ls1 f bodies that run 11.50 to 12.00. By being in the middle at 11.81 I thought I was average. My car is full weight with stock suspension and 3.42 gears.

You are right. Bikes are greater than cars.

Also, I ordered my new clutch packs for the posi yesterday
