Just talked to the local F-body shop today. Turns out this guy makes a habit out of pickin on F-bodies. They said he beat a couple of guys that come there. So now a local guy with built motor and turbo in a formula is lookin for him so.... we will see how that turns out I have a feelin he is going to get whats coming to him
I'm willing to bet said F-body shop probably owns the sumbitch and spanks y'all repeatedly until you come into the shop for more mods!!!!

I think "roll" racing is for homo ricers. Maybe I'm the wuss but racing to 150 mph on the street just doesn't interest me a whole lot. The 1/4 mile has been the standard for a few centuries now and it works. Why change it? If they want to run a road coarse, cool. If not, run the 1/4. I'm not trying to start the flame war but this "I'll race you from 50 mph to 150 mph" is Get your mods and smoke him either way. Happy Hunting.
