The car made 425rwhp through the built rear, in the middle of summer, on a low dyno. The shop said it was the strongest n/a car they had seen, including heads/cam cars.
Forgot what everyone else said, let me know if I missed something.

1. No one races in the rain!
2. Becarefully what you say about 9s cars that can't hang on the highway.
3. The car made 425, through built rear end, in the middle of IRAQ, on a low dyno.... Don't help the car out.
4. It is bad when someone needs cheerleaders.

The weather comment was to prove that I drive my car everyday, regaurdless of road conditions and that most 9s cars, especially ones driven by a college student, are going to be very limited in their streetability. If they aren't in parts as someone earlier said.
Sorry for giving my input based on what I've run into the past 2.5 years down here.

if you are putting bullets on your mods done to your intake and exhaust your not gonna hang with **** in b/cs. sorry, there are a lot faster cars than that.
some of the imports put down bigger numbers than you did.
but congradulations on a cam, at least you might have the right idea, but obviuosly calling people out that wont tear you 8 new ******** isnt yoru specialty.
any you guys coming to the free school this weekend at riverside campus?
tamscc.tamu.edu
or www.tamscc.org server issues site will be back up soon.

Now I remember why I never post on tech, you are all just so welcoming .
I wasn't talking **** about anyone or even saying I was the fastest around. All I said was that in over two years of being at aTm that I have never come across a car on the road that would beat me. Plus the times I have stopped by the tamu scc at open house, none of the cars they were ever showing off would have a chance and the guys talking didn't seem to know a whole lot.
And whose gonna tear me a new *******?? Some car setup to run strictly drags? I've built my car for running from a role on the highway. But whatever, you seem to know me and my car pretty well.

Dude some of the guys out there know alot about there cars, some don't, its the same with every crowd, theres alot of people on tech that don't spend time in the technical sections and don't know jack a/b there LS1. But see TAMSCC is a sports car club not "TAMU you should know everything before joining here" club. Just like every club in the nation it will have some people that rub you the wrong way.
I haven't been monitoring this thread at all this week, but if you guys are so intent on having number wars over the internet, you should take it to pm's.
