Nice cars and some nice numbers guys. A little birdy called and said you guys were comin to Big D and wanted me to bring mine out but it's kinda hard to do when the converter is sittin in a box on the garage floor. Maybe next time.

Yeah definitely had a blast Dennis.To bad we spent half the night driving around.
[QUOTE=DJ's99SS]Had a great time at Ross Motorsports. Ross is a class act, great guy! Talk about some incredible rides that showed up.
Was like a car show with some dyno runs thrown in...
Yes it was pretty hot yesterday for the pulls but like Mike said I think Houston put on a pretty good show for the Dallas boys...only wish it could have been better later that night but we just couldn't get anything started.
There was plenty of muscle at Ross' shop thats for sure. Major props has to go to Tiago and his sleeper TT T/A that shocked the hell out of every single person standing in that shop...I knew it would and just waited to see the looks on everyones faces...Talk about some $$$ changin' hands and some WTF looks
...Congrats Tiago and Eric for a unbelievable set up!!
And Stephan for bringing his MONSTER Supra out for the dyno shoot out. Not sure where in Houston he "drove" the car from to the event but I gotta give it to him! That car is a F'N site to see...pegs the dyno 1200HP with no Nitrous! I can see 1350+ no prob then throw another 300+ for the kit... CRAZY!!! Then drives the damn thing home... 
My "play" day could have been better but I now know what the car is capable of and I'm pretty happy about it...blowin' through the clutch it suprised quite a few of the Dallas crew. As soon as I can get the clutch situation figured out I'll be headin' out for some late night fun and a few hits at HRP...

man the two LS cars that came represented!!!!!
same motor but so different on the dyno...Tiago's was so quick and smooth..it was a great suprise to see how much it made for the little noise it made..
DJ's was was ******* insane on the dyno!!!!! screamed like a ****!!!
too bad we didnt get any action that night..
mine ( the nissan 240) didnt do very well on the juice either...it made 675 on boost and i sprayed a 180 shot but only made about 100 hp on the dyno when it was suppose to make 200HP extra...didnt have enough time to tweak it and turn up the boost..oh well i guess its ok for an auto..
we still kicked *** in DFW...and congrat guys..Im very impressed by those LS1s after all the **** talking i started here so we could get some racing action from you guys!!!!!!

here a quick video of what happened to trailer on the way home..
it was a crazy trip..i had a blow out on my enclosed trailer on the way up there and a blowout on this trailer on the way home...both trailers didnt have a spare..each time we spent over 2 hours to find one (short version)
on top of that one of the guys' car died about 150 miles from houston so i had to unload the supra from the enclosed trailer and drove it all the way home...
