Well, that's good to hear. I was sad for you when I read about it.

I'm just eager to finally maybe see a LS car with some of Chris Franks work actually perform.

Low 5's = 5.0's -5.49's and yes its done it. You'll never see a slip on that car..Thats just how those guys roll. They run for money, and only money. Not for ***** n grins. They cant get anyone to race that car so its parked chilling in the stables with the rest of the 8-10 cars that group owns.

I know how he rolls. I've talked to him along with Josh on numerous occasions. He's a cool dude. I guess it has come a long way since the last time I saw it out and it fell on its face.

It's getting there. Just taking awhile since I'm doing it all myself. SPEC has set me back about a month because of sending the worn parts with my clutch. Finally got the remote filter in a place i like since there's not much room for it anywhere. Gotta finish wrapping the headers and have the exhaust made and I'll start it up.

So I headed up to the TMS on Friday and lights were out. My buddy and his little boy was with me, so we headed up to the Denton drag strip to watch some cars run. There were a few f-body's and a GTO that were making some passes. There was a group of rat rod low riders putting down some good numbers, turned out they had turbo lsx power. Pretty cool. Any of y'all up there?

Yeah my buddies vipers run good on the highway, not so much at the strip. White one has the hennsenney 650 and the yellow one has the same thing. Both sound badass.

Oh I didn't make it out there, I broke my leg tuesday night practicing on my dirtbike. So I'm out on driving the car for about 4 months..

It's a good thing TMS rained out. Gave me some
time to update the tuning on those cars.
