I'm a cobra guy, but that guy got what he had coming. I hate trash talking whether it's ls1 guys or ford guys. Good kill.

great story. I hate people that try to0 act like they got the fastest car out there. These people come in all different types of cars, stangs, fbods, vettes, imports. They need to get put in their place, good job.

a 150 shot from a 50mph roll on street tires in my LS1...and that's through
the stock converter.

Good run.

I actually spin much less with my 4000 stall on a roll than i did with the stock vertor.
30 mph roll with a dry kit(100 shot) stock stall would smoke the tires,BUT, a 4000 stall and Goodyear F1 tires and a 150 WET shot at about 30 mph it will just slip the tires and i get NO smoke from them.
WIERD i know.,but true.


Congrats on the Kill !
Way to show that *** he is not as bad as he thought he was!

Considering his mods and the 125 shot, it's plausible.

How'd the charger sound? Maybe he's a bad driver. But if youre an a4 which is what it sound slike... I'd drop the 4.10s for 3.73s.

ok that helps... the 10 car lengths seemed the BS. A KB is easy 11s, and I doubt you're 10 lengths faster than that.

Good run.
On the average blacktop, I spin and even fishtail slightly going from a 40 roll if I stab it. And that's with new tires, but they're a junky all season type tread I got for $100 mounted on 2002 SS rims.

Yeah, so what if a guy can't get traction keep doing redo until you run out of gas? Stupid, either know how to get it to hook or accept defeat, don't race at all if you gonna complain. lil bishes (good kill!)

Good kill! BTW, when are you going to change your sig? I'm sure you meant (k)ooks headers lol.
