Default Ran a Procharged WS6

I was out at a local GTG the other night hanging out.. This guy showed up in a Prochaged WS6, the blower was loud as hell, Well my buddy set up a race between him and me.. He knew them pretty good.. My car is very quiet and when I pulled it over there they were saying there is no way that I was even going to hang with him.. We will see about it.. Well we take off down the hwy and he honks it off, I think I hit it a little earlier then he did but not by much.. We started at 65mph I was in 3rd gear, and I pulled him out of the hole and kept it there all the way till about 150mph in 5th It looked like I had about 2 cars on him.. We ran again, this time I let him take off first and he had about a car on me till mid way through 5th around a 135-140mph and pulled back on him and put a nose on him.. It was a good race and I tried to give him a thumbs up but he wouldn't even look at me.. I guess he was pissed that a stock motor sprayed, full weight Mach1 beat him.. Yes my car was at ful weight this time.. I had everything in it..

Hes from Texas, were people actally race for money not go to ricer races. I dont think hes going to want to share his times or his mods.

I have a small 125 shot. Full exhaust and gears. I just found out that the WS6 has full exhaust, a cam don't know what size and the procharger.. Something just doesn't sound right to me if he can't pull a stock motor bolt on sprayed Mach1.. The car runs pretty good at the track.. Some people here know what it runs.. Or use to run..

My buddy knows the kids that have the car, he says they don't know what the hell they are doing. More money than sense, or I should say mommy and daddy have more money than sense.

Nice kill, that car obviously isnt running very well....Alot of the forced induction guys have been forced to change tunes due to the recent addition of 10% Ethanol here in Texas. If they didnt they were likely detonating pretty bad, engine wont last long.

That could be true, I know I need to have my tune checked out on the N20 just to make sure everything is ok.. I talked to my tuner today and he even said that the Ethanol has been giving some cars problems if there fuel system is almost maxed out.. For what he had done to the car I didn't think it ran what it should either.. I don't think something is right about his car.. But mine is still running strong for now..

Yeah make sure you check your tune it will lean out some on the ethanol mix...Mine certainly does!
