Why not a roll and a dig, that way you both get a race that plays to your cars strength?

See that's what I like to see. Most of the time you get people trying to race only from their strength that **** pisses me off

Wrong section, David. The Bench racing and dyno forum would've been more appropriate.

He is a friend of mine, he had a nbm z28 but sold it and bought a cobra, and is now going back to a ls1. He is stock piling parts and already has a plan for the next car, just is waiting for the cobra to sell to get another f-body to install all the parts on.
