Seems to me that whoever produces the best dyno number or takes the nicest photo of their car is king on this site.
Damn... I've been out of the game too long...

I raced my Formula two Sundays ago. Raced my truck last sunday. Raced my C6 last night at HRP, but the clutch disagreed with my attempt.
Where were you?

and/or
B.) A bulletproof rearend
My SS is just my weekend/nice weather car. I just want it to sound good and look good. I have a daily driver for my work/school commute. Later on after school I will get a 93-97 Camaro, big single turbo, suspension, rear end, yadda yadda, and basically build it up to be able to abuse the ever living **** out of it without breaking **** (so I think,
). I mean, when I first got my car, I ran an 8.9, 2.2 60' @ 89 (not too sure about the speed) bone stock as a novice M6 driver, not bad on my first runs. On the highway under safe and appropriate (smokey check,
) conditions I'll race anyone if they flex. However, I don't go looking to race people, I just cross my fingers and hope they will want to run as I slowly pass them, .But yeah Dan, alot of people will not race because they are scared to lose or run slow times, its ******* pathetic. Nobody is paying any one of us to dump cash into our cars and race people. It's a hobby, its all about what you want of your car and how much time and $$$ you want to allocate to it, period.

I've personally seen Nick race a couple times. Granted it wasn't on a track, but it's more than some of our local posers do.
