I just wonder how many 35k motors and money mr knight wants to loose before he closes shop. Last Texas mile car was everything josh designed anyway, Joe actually decided to give a crap about the tune for once to make more power. One thing about Joe tunes you either get a good one or you get a two pull stinker

That sucks to hear. I was thinking of bringing my car there instead of my regular guy. K-p tuned my buddies c6z with a pretty big cam and its dead nut on. Idles perfect. No bouncing when rolling. Bucks way less than before, and picked up quite a bit of midrange...

Best of luck to them. Finding another 20MPH when you're already over 250MPH would be impressive.

Were you directly involved? Gossip is for old ladies playing bingo.

Every shop has it's own group of haters, welcome to the internet. There are 3 sides to every story, as they say.

Why did you ignore my post?

He has "haters" for a very good reason. A reason that at one time amounted to $45,000+ USD that him and Amber knowingly stole from people with the intention of never repaying.

Once a crook always a crook. It's only a matter of time until he does it again.

Why is him being involved with another shop s big deal now as opposed to when he was with LMR the last few years? I don't see the difference...

Mr Watley you have some badass cars, I know you have had them do some work for you. Yes I was involved and know a lot more about the crap that went down then what you were told by Joe.

The Mile starts tomorrow morning and all the **** talking and speculation will be put to rest. No doubt KP has the power to go that fast, but whether they have luck going their way (which you need a little of when racing at this level) will be the ultimate decider. Stuff breaks and track conditions can spoil a good run. It would be nice to see an LS-powered vehicle take the title back. I wish Joe and Kelly luck.

There's a certain Ford GT that has upped its game too.. Hopefully that Camaro stays on the ground. It was damn near airborne at 263mph and a strong tailwind.

Spoke with Joe and they have the aero package totally redone on Kelly's Camaro. Trick splitter up front, flat bottom underneath and a custom diffuser in the rear. If there's any problem now it's too much downforce in the front. Guess they can always dial that back. It's better to have too much downforce than not enough.

I hope he does it, and stays safe. I'd hate to hear something bad happened. Do you know if the lambos do similar aero to keep the cars stable at those speeds or are they really that good from the factory aero wise?

Weather is crappy today.. did Bise run yet? The GT went 261.2 so far. Last time, these guys had a 20mph tailwind and 50 degree air. Sunday will be the best day because of the cold front coming through.
