Thanks man!

Yea I knew exactly what was going to happen and it did. People just can't give a "Good run". Oh well like said before, guess I'm doing something right when the fanboys get all worked up.

And the Cobra was the red turbo one. Would you ever be willing to meet at Mooresville? I actually like that track.

A million and one variables in that video, bolt on LS1 means what exactly, it has a catback? Lol. For all I know he was in the wrong gear or maybe an auto.

Not trying to start anything but it is possible for a MACH to take down a Camaro with a decent amount of bolt-ons. I posted a kill about 2 months ago on an 01 Z28 with some mods. He is a friend of mine and in the same car club.

Good run. I don't see why you wouldn't have enough to run a bolt on LS1.

Because bolt on LS1's trap 120mph. You didn't know that? And the track is all about MPH.

btw thanks

Ordering a quick release and firewall adjuster now.

It would be badass but no need his car is far from maxed out and he could make it roll n/a with the right parts.

Thanks for the recommendation! They are almost 40$ cheaper than the ET Streets. I think I'll order them soon.

Sounds good man. I'll let you know next time we all go. I would like to run at Zmax but I heard their prep sucks.

Well lets see...I've run much faster than you did with bolt ons and nitrous. So I'd say I'm a wee bit further than you. What did your GT500 run in the 1/8? Lets see the slip...
