Default Another LS1 kill

Damn it seems like I'm getting pretty good at this J/K. Anyways, I'm just leaving the supra/viper dyno gathering(over 100 supras and vipers) when I come across a clean looking black ss camaro. I really didn't want to run since I just got a ticket the previous day. So after about 3 attempts of countless hopping at me, I finally agreed. I down shift to second gear and told him to take off whenever hes ready. I hear the rumble of the motor and the tires peeling so I hit the gas also. He jump out on me about a half a car and before I hit 3rd I easily started to gain ground. As the revs start to climb, so did the distance. At the end of 5th gear, I had easly put 2-3 cars on him. After the race he asked me to pull over to see what I had done to the car. We talked for awhile and he told me he had a cam, longtube headers, exhaust, etc but no nitrous. Overall he was pretty cool, but he told me to run him again in about 3 weeks when he has his nitrous installed. `

Nope its going to be at Fred Haas Toyota for the tranny install. My 3rd gear is popping out and my 4th won't come out. I think its the synchros and forks. The 91-92 tranny is pretty weak, so I upgraded to a 93-95 tranny with dual synchros and an lsd. I should have it out by next Thursday. I'll be up there in the 350z though. What time are you leaving out Sunday, are or you leaving Saturday?

I think that was me. Where you coming from the 290 area, then we crossed over 610? I think I do remember. You where in the far left hand lane and me right next to you right?

Nice Kill! I wonder how your 350Z would do against my little Firehawk. It's currently at HPE getting new lifters. Have not got the car to HRP yet to know my 1/4 times.

Stop wrecking the site you damn ricer! Everyone knows you made this up

Nice job. Sounds like a pretty decent race, I bet it would have been really interesting from a dig. A cam/LTs/Bolt-ons and your Z would be a close match powerwsie I would think.
