Thing says 21. Add a nice wide tire and you are back up to least 35lbs. But I see your point. My 20" wheels weigh in at about 60lbs with tires. So they are heavy as hell compared to my Racestars that was 39lbs with 296/55/15 DR's and welds that will shed another 8lbs off the racestars.

Some guys are running as wide as 11" in the rear already. The mustang fenders don't need rolled. They have no lip at all. I run a 295 on my 20" wheels that are 27.8" tall.

pa-pa-pa-please don't lock this one!

Nevermind doesn't matter, Automach will just post more fake killz in another thread and Mike will again Pwn him... I'm starting to see a pattern.

Lets see how this Soap Opera plays out...

I still have no idea why you haven't banned AutoMach yet.....OOOHH Maybe he's your fake alternate screen name used to stir up drama?!

Very clever

20-21lb wheels are extremely light considering a 15x10 weld wheel is around 13-14lbs. Id rather give up the 6lbs and not be a race car. I like full size wheels

Not really racecar imo. I also like the look just as much as 18s.

Im not a fan of the big/little combo unless its a purpose track car. Id rather spend quadruple the amount of money and have a badass 18 inch wheel with a lot of suspension to make it hook. 15s are boring to me. 20s are gay. Id also like to be able to turn... cant do that on a 15 inch with a skinny in the front. Ill give up 5 lbs a wheel for an all around nice looking wheel. The forgestars are extremely light. I will rock those all day long . I have a bad habit of spending money on things to lighten things up. I wont rip anything apart to pull weight (hence why i think gutting your interior is stupid). Ive always been pretty good at that. Ill take a car that LOOKS full weight, with bigger non race wheels on it, full interior... and make it light. My GTO jumped on the scale at 3340.. factory wheels. Front original seats with rear seat delete kit. Ill have my boss down around 300lbs when its done.... and having not pulled a single thing out of it

Hell bring the supra over we can do a roll idc at this point you are all talk. Then you want to lie on top off thay to make yourself look better bahahaha. Yea I know a lot ppl may back you on here but you are full of **** most of the time. Where did I claim the mach was a superior platform? If you have 4 cars that can bust my *** then why want you drive the camaro over for a roll race? You can't call ppl names on here and then bitch about it when I do it lol oh and I can't wait to take it dowm the track high 11s bahaha sure buddy let me guess it will only trap 117 as well lolz

BOOOO HOOOO. You had 2 weeks and you put up every excuse in the book. Its the holidays and I can't do it this week as I posted so of course you want to race now. Should I use your excuse? My car is not a drag car. I don't have tires. I don't want to travel. My car can't hook. That better???? Blah blah

Camaro is not available for another 2-4 months. You know that. Mute point. Where were you two weeks ago,week ago???. Why didn't you show up at Bradenton????????????????????????????????????????? ????????? I was there.

I even challenged you to run for MPH at the track(ie HIo race). You declined.

Oh geez you never posting about Machs,4 valves being superior in terms of speed etc compared to a Fbody LS1? I guess I was drunk when I read your arguments with Adam,Hio,Lemans etc....Utter nonsense like you always post.

Name calling? LOL what a hypocryte.

Stop ignoring my posts and posting nonsense. Where am I full of ****. I have slammed you in every thread and ANSWER everything. You on the other hand like the troll you are ignore 90 percent of it. You are barely worth a retort. Your retorts are straight up hyperboles anyway.


Where is your dyno slip???


Who tuned your car?


Where are pics of your car with mods on it? Pics of your mods?


Your car will run high 11s if you have the mods you say you do with a tire swap. Disagree then simply provide proof on the 29th when you run-timeslips ,pics of your mods and videos. And don't post other people's timeslips like you did on SVT and got caught. If you run faster than high 11s I will be the first to tell you good job and eat my words. I unlike others on here have a lot of experience and have been around 07-08 GT500s since they were new so I know what they can and can't do with certain mods. You are trying to stretch the truth like you did with Mach,4 valve performance. Like I said why in the world would someone add power to a car that can't hook???

Your car stock is about a high 12 second car at about 113-114 MPH. Not sure where the 127MPH argument comes from that I see Lemons brining up but no way with the mods you have you can hit a MPH like that unless you are not listing everything.

You got called out for two weeks and half, cried excuses and backpeddled. I then stated I was done with your bs and car was going to get completed and tuned. When I post I am busy this week to see my family you then state you want a race. What a clown you are. You are either very stupid or high as a kite. Where did I run to? I am not a kid stuck on a message board 24 hours a day that lives at home with a parent like you. I run my own company,work as project manager(not since I have been hurt),travel all over the place and have residences in three states that I have to keep tabs on goings on so excuse me that I can't be on the board 24 hour a day.

Run your car on the 29th like you stated. Post the vids,pics and timeslips. Prove me wrong! Easy enough...
