Default ****new 1/4 mile record****

Andrews zr1 fell off the trailer and went a 9.69 @147 and backed it up with a 9.68 @147. Video to come shortly, probably tomorrow. The street manners of a stock car but the muscle to "raise hell"

Might be a stretch, but I can probably guess.

Congrats, guys. 147 is really moving out!

let me guess, you could have hopped right in it and driven it to 9.6, this is a weak arguement and a sorry *** way to take away from andrews accomplishments with that car. Congatulations andrew, if they are not hating then you are not doing anything.

Huh? Whose was hating?


But since you brought it up..hmmm? What did he accomplished again? He bought an extremely fast car,had some parts bolted in to make it even faster...and had a badass driver run an ET that a car with that much power is supposed to run...

Congrats Andrew on the car's new numbers. Need to swing by the house with it. I want to go for a ride in that beast. The ZR1 trans/rear is what Matt wanted to do in his car if he didn't sell it. It is def. the way to go in these cars, and yours came stock with it

Geoff it's funny you mention that because you do the same with us. It's the haters that keep me pushing the car harder and harder every chance I get. Well that and I get bored with power very easy. It's a bad "sickness" to have, for the wallet.

unfortunately the blue vette is a turd and not much impressive at the dragstrip. It went 10.40 @149 with a 2.27 .60ft

i did see the thread was deleted but was not responsible for the deletion. What i meant was i dont know you in real life, of course i recognize the avatar and our last conversation. Love you andrew, if you wanna stop by and talk shop let me know, i will move my chopper of the landing grid so you can land your copter. Got to go, the bon fire of money i left burning is starting to go out

Actually my Apache is parked in the empty lot next door so no need to move. Andrew looked at houses here but wasn't sure if he remembered the code. You know gated places range from apts to houses. I am not big balling like you alls customers. I'm currently working on the car in my garage with two jack stands and an $80 craftsmen tool kit. Not some big million dollar shop full of Snap On tools, dyno, etc.

But thanks for the hate it keeps these threads going and entertaining while I'm changing plugs on the car!

Either way still going to make you look like an idiot, when you try and act all bad ***. What are you going to do Geoff? Beat me up? Shoot me? Wait you dont remember what i look like you said? You dont remember me dropping off and picking up my car trailer years ago when you worked at BVI?

All I did was congratulate Andrew... A friend for the last 10 years. You just aided me to troll you...

Removing an intercooler I'll check post after.
