10.45 on a 200 shot? Isn't that the vett that went 10.55 all motor??
Is this the corvette that I am supposed to be afraid of?
If I didn't know any better I would think these boys are trying to do alittle:

There were many reasons why I didnt get into the nines yesterday.
1. I didnt lauch the car above 2k and it bogged bad
2. I didnt turn the nitrous on untill 2nd gear
3. The 20mph head wind wasnt helping my mph
4. I didnt know how the car was going to hook on the nitrous
All these reasons why we had the out come it did, I am still happy to be in the 140's not many can say that. I know the car will go 9.XX next time out at 145-150mph or I will leave the rearend at the starting line!
Matt
PS: I only went 1 tenth faster on nitrous so but with a 1.98 60 foot were as I go 1.50 on motor. John dont tempted me with the 300 shot, if you know me you know how competive I am! hell I was think 400!

Wish it was easy as putting a 12-bolt / 9" like in our F-bodies Matt left part of his rearend on S.A.R. last time we took it out trying to launch on motor Sadly it had all the good parts in it too, but wheel spin = IRS bonesaw.
