I can see that your car is very fast and since you have an established reputation here I don't think you are lying. Do you have any vids of your car at the track? I want to see some track passes since that is what you are primarily set up for.

The only vids are of my old setup without converter and without N20..
I need some MTDRAGS so I can hook decent and also the car is a TRUE Street/Strip car it is NOT meant for just track..
Send me a friend request on the link(if you have myspace and the vids are on there)

Good kill. It's always the same story with high hp low weight imports. Good kill. Not only have I said it a million times, but have heard it a million times. Dyno numbers don't mean squat unless you're in to dyno competitions.

I'm not calling you a liar Nick, but its easy to get a dyno video of a fast car and then you racing a fast car that sounds the same, but no one can see it. Just seems like your car would have to be blistering fast beat a car with over 100whp more than you and weigh a lot less, and since you have no internal mods it just doesn't seem plausable.

I say again though, good kill.
Would some1 really go through all that trouble just to post a kill story on LS1TECH.COM?

Did any1 ask what kinda tires were on the 240? If he didn't have DRs on then 470whp is useless. Trust me I know this from experience.

I see you are new to the site, you would be surprised at some of the lengths people go to on here. Hang around for a while and you will see...
