Default Whos car @ HRP???

I was out at HRP last night and was 2 cars behind a z28 I believe, that left the line and stood it up on the back bumper. I thought it was going to come up and over. I was behind it and saw the whole top of the hood.

Was it blue with black wheels?? If so, it's probably Paco's car.

I was there last night, but I was staged two or three cars back when the Camaro did the ***-dance down the track. My wife saw it all. Sucked - I missed it, she didn't video it, plus I had to wait forever for them to clean the track. I also was there Friday night when some clown got sideways off the line, backed off and then got on it again and smacked the wall. Had to wait for that clean-up. Augh!!

But, I had a good time anyways. We were out track testing her 2000 Mustang. Got a 13.58@102mph out of it and then kept spinning the **** out of the tires. It needs drag-radials or slicks bad. Had a 2.007 60 foot time, though. On Yokohoma ES100's! Not bad!

who had the black camaro with the g-force sticker on it? I think it had fikse's with some drag radials on it. I went up against it on my last pass of the night and that car rolled out pretty good, I wasn't expecting it.

I would like to meet some of you guys. Seems like no one out there is very talkative. Everybody gets secretive.I talked to one guy who had a 2001 red Vette coupe w headers and a stealth2 cam and some stall.
