I wish I could say the same Corey. Lol. My car should be leaving on the trailer from NJ sometime tonight. Whether it is running or not when it gets loaded is anyone's guess. Lol

I'll be heading to the roll race event on Wednesday and staying in Houston for the rest of the week, may be picking up a car while I'm there so maybe I can have fun with the slow cars and I mean SLOW. 400whp area. lol.

Why don't you come say that type of over-inflated **** to me. Just a lousy 1600whp V.

I don't think he was looking down on them. I agree that 400hp cars should NOT be trying to run in the same pack as 1000+ cars. With the way the cops are gonna be, the last thing we need are slower cars leaving a bigger trail behind as to where we are going. Not hating at all, just trying to make a point...

I'm not looking at picking on fast cars, just on the mid level ones who think low hp cars don't deserve to be there.

Look out for a green turbo Duster, and red 97 (paddle shifted!) TT Viper GTS. Those are the guys from my tune shop hoping to out run some Lambos. Big 3 Racing is their name.

Yeah I'm just gonna pick my spots cause the last thing I or anyone needs is to get arrested. Probably gonna skip going to Sealy this year and just hang around the city or hotel until the night falls. Wouldn't mind checking your car out so pm me Friday.

Haha thanks man. And it still isn't running so when it gets there we'll be thrashing it all day Wednesday to get it going. Dont know how much racing I'll be doing but I'd be happy just to get it broken in and get the bugs worked out.

I'll be coming to Katy thurs night to meet up with a few people and tag along with the big boys.. That will probably be the extent of my street action... And maybe get some after we leave the night meet in Sealy late Friday night. I'm mainly going to TX2k to check out cars and cruise, maybe play a little but.. I'm not trying to get arrested or break stuff 2hrs away from home.. I'm always concerned about slinging a belt or popping a coupler. Not changing a belt on this thing on the side of the road.

Not sure I'll be able to get into the Marriott to hang out since I'm not staying there..(gotta have a parking pass I hear)

I saw pics of those cars on facebook. What's the details on those cars and what is their set up? Also how much power are they putting out?

I want so badly to go to the roll racing event but unfortunately I'll only be there Thursday night-Saturday morning. Still excited. I think the worlds fastest ZR1 will be there representing KY but I don't know of any other cars going from here.

Same here. Have a couple meet ups planned. Don't feel bad in 5 hours away. The Omni is the place where you will need passes.
