About 1500 in labor in my car. By most shops rates that’s about 15 hours.

I have no shop labor involved. Just 2 friends helping each other accelerate the best ways they know how. If I had to pay a shop to work on my car I wouldn't have one.

Time is money. I have X amount of time off which is very valuable to me and how I spend that time is important, 1500 is chum change. I’d rather spend all that time I saved with the fam.

It would be close. It's a 125-130 car. Lokes to run from rolls because it would be a turd from a dig with locked cams and stock verter....gutted to.

There's more to it than ohio wiill tell you guaranteed.

You see....it's stock

Scared of what?

Spoken like a true 5br0 that was getting drug na.
Not more to it. I listed everything guy has done. And where does it say gutted and stock converter? The guy owns it is mid 20s at most and dont track race. Probably because hes in houston and a lot of street action there.

Just pointing out that there is more than one way to skin a cat.

He’s a bitter broke old man. I wouldn’t expect him to understand. His wife don’t want him in the house to he spends all day in the garage picking his nose jello with his oily fingers.

I will take that bet but I am not sure of the weight. I have most of the parts I want. I am just hunting for the car(auto,spoiler delete,Grabber blue,301a model),which is proving tough. Should take me a week to finish car after I get it and have it tuned.

To be on the same level as Hio it needs to be a Ben Calimer type combo. In that case Hio would get his soul crushed. Now add in Hio crew intrenal boltom mods and drop race weight. Ben would damn near run 9s. Hammer head would be a better race.

There's always more to it when you list mods. Done proved that with you.

Wife comes out to the shop and visits plenty. I'm just not a couch potato like you.

I've ran ben. My soul wasn't crushed. But the pull of that ls up top no doubt had him scratching his head. I usually chat with him when i see him. He runs at dixon some. Goes to cecil for his glory runs on ftw.

Funny how his fastest runs didn't come from dixon after yall thinking it's some supa fast track.

I've never ran gutted, on rocket fuel, never left on a 2step, never ran slicks.

Likely some time to be had there.

Ben denied knowing you after you raced him. He then called me a bunch of profanity laced names so I know he knows exactly who you are. He was a no show at Cecil to run me and a ZL1. You will need to remove all your seats,seat belts and door panels like him along with plastic trunk panels like WBT did.

No problem d9esnt have to be a pissing contest I've actually only raced one boosted mustang and we lost. But to be fair he was the winner of street car takeover the event we raced at. He beat a twin turbo new viper going high 160s low 170s at the roll racing event His car was nice full cage and chute

I want to say 101 mph but I don't want to lie about the e.t I don't remember but it's only track passes were in 40 degree weather with nittos that just could not hook up off the line als9 she is a novice driver still. I did get her a line lick now because she just couldn't heat the tires up she was scared of the wall. That being said since then it has line lock she knows how to remove traction control new drag radials on stock 20s 12lb pulley over the 10 it had b4 and a hood to stop all the heat soak it's embarrassing when the starter drags and your not for sure it's gonna start at the roll racing event her best m9h was 130s this year I'm gonna help her get to mid 6s
