Umm, that is about it for cars. I have lost to a few 1000's and a few Hayabusas too. I don't have these on video, but I will very soon and post them up. Believe me, I am not just posting my wins intentionaly. It just happens that when I do lose, I don't have my damn camera with me or a passenger. The Z06 is by far unbeatable, but it just requires a fast car to beat it, and faster cars are not around in my city.
I didnt mean to offend you. I hoped it didnt come off as that.

No fast cars in MI??? You have the only Veyron dealership in that state go hang out by it until one sells

Good to know a heavily modded F-body will hang we have lots of fast cars in LA Porche capital of the world I think (they are everywhere like flys) and everything else fast

Damn Fadi, you just can't seem to find someone to outrun that damn stocker. I wish I were closer so you could show me how that thing looks from the rear.
D, Fadi has got one of those slow yellow ones. You need a blue or black one to see how they really move!!

Yes my car is an FRC. Would love to have some custom FRC badges. I put on the rear brake ducts, due to their looks and funtionality, also added the C5 Zo6 chrome wheels because I like the way they look vs the 5 spoke.

As far as my gearing, I have a DTE stg III rear with a 3.42 gear in place. Also a brace to help absorb some of the stress being placed on the rearend. I raced a BMW M5 V10 and stayed in 5th all the way to 180 with rpms left so I know my top speed is more then being claimed. As far as power goes, the final tune is in place and she made 486 rwhp and 451 rwtq. Not bad compared to 451 rwhp and 417 rwtq last year. An improvement of 35 rwhp and 34 rwtq. Louis designed the cam I am running and it will be available to the public sometime in the future. I strongly suggest picking it up, it is nasty as hell. Just ask BigRon77. He heard and saw me in action. Hung out at his place after leaving LG Motorsports and before heading out to a hotel for the night.

I'm picking my car up this weekend. All done, but have to get it retuned next week. I'll be there, if you guys hold off a week. That will be hard though. Grudge Match 2007 Bring it.

When is that race with 1BADAIR at Milan happening?
he chickened out

Definitely didn't chicken out. I had my cousin from FL here and I couldn't make it.

Larry, lets see what your mid 10 sec car (that would obviously destroy me from a dig) will do agianst my mid 11 sec car from a roll. You ready to see a big, yellow Corvette rear end?..

1badair is trapping 129+, shouldn't be any issues with fadi with those trap speeds.

Fadi trapped 125-126 correct? Probably 127 in good air.

Just to calrify.

1) I have a best trap of 125.6 mph. This mph came from a total of 5 runs only. If I were a track junkie and ran my car 30x, I am sure I would have hit a 126.x mph with it.

2) I have a best ET of 11.5 and that came with a 124.5 mph trap.

3) Yes, I have already beaten 1BADAIR, and I can't wait to do it again..(hehe)
