EDIT: did anybody run in the right lane and get some crazy readout on your slip for 1/4 mile MPH? i got a 185.XX and a 69.XX[/QUOTE]


I was out there watching my buddy run his GN...slip read that he trapped 444 mph ...yeah, that wasn't quite right. I noticed the lights messing up a few other times as well.

A lot of nice looking cars out there last night. Too bad the weather sucked.

Yeah our NA Joe Gibbs RCSB truck ran a 14.28@117mph. That doesn't add up. Our average mph should have been right at 93.? mph. All the other #s were right on track.

There may have been a june bug melted to the mph beam and a bird down there trying to peck it off.lol. Just a theory

It's Summer time boyz!!!!!!

I played with a Joe Gibbs truck this morning...few short runs. He had a FMIC, but I didn't hear any whine??? Anyway, I was impressed with how he ran against the Z. This was the first time I've heard or seen a Joe Gibbs performance truck...very impressed. What all is done to them? How do they stand up to Lightnings?

The none super charged JGP trucks just have a Corsa exhaust and the rest is ornamental (badging, suspension and gauge inlays).

If your Camaro is silver and the JGP truck was Red on BW8, that was me

Nope, mine is an 04 Z06. The guy was driving a newer black chev PU. And believe me, it wasn't much of a race, but I was impressed by how few car lengths he was behind me...I gave him big props when he caught back up. I loved the truck! He definitely had a FMIC though, so he must've had some sort of power adder.
