I wonder why eataz06mmm doesn't buy it when he isn't aware of this fact.

Just in case you were wondering and didn't feel like reading through the whole thread like I just did,there it is...that(quote above) says all. I can never quite understand why there is ever any kind of debate in these types of things. Most of the time, if it seems a little too far-fetched it probably is. What gets me even more is why someone would even care to post something like this up. I guess just to see the reaction. So it served it's purpose because he had a lot of folks questioning this. It was fiction from the first post. As a lot of folks said, stock 15 second car doesn't beat stock mid to upper 13s car if driver=driver. I say we all stop wasting time on stupid "joke" posts like this.

i still see you losing time with nitrous just blowing through your converter... not to mention with you being on stock springs and cam... it does not help either

Can't you guys take a joke? Holy shiznit. You guys would think that was hysterical if it was a Mach 1 instead of a WS6. Give me a break.

You guys are too funny. 99_Transam got a lot of flack over on our local boards and was getting pretty upset, but it was all in good fun.
All I know is that if the road has curves that I will walk past him like I did this past weekend. It seems as though stock suspended LS1's handle like **** while a pretty much stock suspended 17 year old 3rd gen with 130K miles on it handles like it is on rails.

Shouldn't you have started a new thread for a new joke?

That is far from being a joke. I honestly thought he was going to spin out on the HOV lanes and that isn't a good place to spin out since it is only 2 lanes with 3-4' concrete walls on both sides.
If you haven't owned or riden in a 3rd gen Iroc or WS6 with shocks and struts in good working order, then you probably don't have a feel for how these older cars ride.

Zepher's no tool. I know him back from a thirdgen board I frequented when I had a TPI car myself. This was obviously a joke as we can all tell, so no need to get all worked up about it.

Zepher, wasn't there once an LT1 going into that car, or even actually in it for some time? I have a small video clip of your car from back when it was still in like 5 different colors. That motor (305 I think) sounded good... nice lope to it. There's also a nice black TA with OZ Monte Carlos in that vid. About time that car got painted :p . Looks good now. What ever happened to that LT1 though ???
