I want a slobalt rematch, just not on that road. It goes to a single lane way too quick especially if you are door to door. Got any new tricks on the Balt? Still waiting on my block from the machine shop, but in a week we should have it and then it's a mad dash to get her built and ready for the spring.

that road is too tight.

no new tricks except a dig in warm weater may be a bus length instead of a train

better hurry, spring is almost here!

I wonder how this post is impacting Killemalls days.. With the amount of **** being thrown at him, I sure would be moody outside of the forums lol

"Why don't those guys on ls1tech like me?! I bought my Viper so everyone would think I am cool and they still don't like me. Killemall sad. "

1000 feet elevation on street tires in 75 degree weather..
My last testing before a few added mods was the 1/8 in 7.5 at 97 mph and 1/4 in 11.6 at 125
So 4.x seconds later after going from 2nd to 3rd at 125-130 mph

7.5 seconds 8th plus 4.1 seconds 1/4 =11.6
Too much bench racing.

Putting it in 1/4 mile terms really puts it in perspective. My Lt1 ran 11.7 stock shortblock, only a tenth slower . Quite a bit lower trap, but such is life in a stalled auto with quite a bit less hp.

Would have been a fun race! .

PS: You guys are harsh.
