Hey, SSkillz, I saw you run tonight. I only saw you once though, you ran against a, I think, SOM camaro, beat'm too =)

I did shitty tonight as far as nitrous goes.. I ran decent NA though, I got a 14.93 NA, best for me so far NA.

And the nitrous.. Gah. I had 0 traction first nitrous run, ran slowed than NA lol. Then I did a few more, still no new nitrous best.. then final run I went from 800psi to 400psi and pretty much only shaved .1 off my time.. And now I have to go fill the bottle again lol

Was a blast though!

Sure thing! I hope next time I go i'll have a full bottle though lol. The only run I had a good spray on I had hella traction problems. Hell, if I can, i'll try and get some ET streets by then, but damn they cost a lot.

Hey Lurius, I seen you run. The truck was looking good and I watched you run that 14.93

usd2sing, sorry about being an asshat over the confusion on your gears, I don't know my V6's

As for me, I wasn't able to get much traction on the 555R's. Kept clicking off 12.2's@112 with 1.8 60's. Oh well, I'll just have to live with a personal best of 12.01@113 with a 1.74 60'. My friend in his stock '01 C5 got a new personal best last night, 13.1@104, 2.0 60'.

Oh yea, I saw you break--that sucked. You have a bada$$ 6. Having owned a 13s GTP, I got a special place in my heart for the 3.8

If you see a white stock C5 Vette on Y2k's out there running 13.1's, that's me. Traction was good but I still can't figure out how to break sub 2.0 60' on these street tires. Would like to run 12's stock, but looks like I'm going to need some mods to do it after all unless I go buy some DR's.

See you guys on the 27th for Fast Friday
