Well I'll be the first to respond by saying this. The first two races one from a dig and the other from a roll I was out in front I don't want to say by how much as I couldn't give an accurate account due to driving I know I could see his head lights in my side mirrors. The third race from a 1'st gear roll we left I spun and missed 3'rd or well didn't really miss it it just woulldn't go in etc... although even if it had he was out there to far for me to make up the distance. The fourth race again from a dig John was inching forward pretty much aleast half a car and then when we left he was about half a car ahead this time I was starting to pull him but a car was in front and we got out. I was making the desiels jealous with all the smoke I was making had the dip stick blow out and put oil all over the headers etc... Thought I had busted another ring gland but I think Josh (Goldrust) is right I think it is fine. Ran fine on the way home and didn't seem to be down on power. I am going to do a compression check to double check it etc... all in all a bunch of good racing. John and my car are a very good match he's lighter and I think I am making more useable power so very good races.The first race went three wide with a 03 cobra, but he didn't keep up with ULUZ or me, but very nice run Blain,and Brandon in the red z was a good run I was pulling him, but not a bad race either.That is the most racing in one night I have had in a long long time. Had a great time talking with everyone. Thanks Josh (Goldrust)for the quick fix on the dipstick. Will be back again I stopped off at the car wash to get rid of all the oil before I got home so she's clean again LOL.

yea it was pretty much a wash for me due to the fact I was on RADIALS 
. these ls1 guys like to go from a slow roll 
. anyway it was a little different story from about a 60 roll. Good runs and sorry I will not be out next week.
all in fun and that was the most racing I have seen and done in a while.

Yeah I saw you were on DR so I knew you at a disadvantage from the get go on the first run. I don't remember seeing you in the other three runs John and I had so I can't say how you did I was just comenting on the first one where I knew for sure you were running with us so don't take offence not trying to say anything about you or your car and I know traction is king so you don't have to say a word about the lack of traction you didn't have any. Yeah they help alotcompared to the F1 I have on my ZO6 wheels ,but they will still spin especially on the cold nights like this one was. The first two races they hooked pretty well the second two they weren't holding nearly like they should John seemed to be hooking better on his DR than I did after the first two races. I thought by the last time we ran I thought for sure they would have been warm enough but they spun again. Just what you have to deal with on the street. It was fun I thought someone was going to film it but I don't know if they did or not?
Never saw a car spin ET streets from a roll before

Sweet races guys! Like stangkiller said, my car was slow compared to those nearly 600hp. cars. As for setting up a meet on a more northern location... where could that be? Cops are pretty strict on the northside so we'll have to do a little research.
