btw pdan. kechme is probably someone you want to listen to. he knows more about these cars than most people. look at the sticky thread about the top 25 fastest lsx's in texas

That's all good and well and I can respect guys that pour money into cars for a living to make them drag-strip monsters, but that's not important to me. I've loved fast cars for awhile now. My Camaro was "stock" until end of last year when I started working on it. I put a couple G's into it and I'm satisfied. I'm actually saving so my wife and I can have kids.
I'm sure he could take me off the line, so could you, so could Nick, so could TX_SS, so could etc, etc etc... Big whoop IMO...not important to me.
I'm positive Alan could take Nick...easily from a roll. Maybe not so easy from a dig, but probably in the 1/4, it would happen.
And, you're saying that sux2bu ran a 6.9x in the 1/8 in a stock LS1?? MOTHER PORKING BS! BTW, stock means -EVERYTHING from the factory as is... If he so much as had drag radials on there, that is NOT stock.

anyone can be a monster at the track with an automatic...... i ran my car without the wrapp on the exhaust and it ran 8.5 @ 86 or something like that. i could care less. after that i ran a 7.0 mustang from a roll and made him **** his pants. if i wanted a track car, i would've gotten an automatic my friend. im very know you will drag me out of the whole in the way i sit now. but when i get a clutch, you will be the first to know. then i will turn the boost up a little more and throw a 2 step in there and we'll do your dig race. you will impress me if you can pull me from a roll. i tell you what, i can only run 1 gear before she says no, i'll run you in 1 gear, if you can pull me before i run out of my 1 gear, you can post up that you beat me. i'll even turn the ac on for you
it'll have to be a roll though i'll do a 40 roll in second for me LS1 Tech Stories

any automatic can do those mods and be a bad *** in the 8th, take that **** to the 1/4 and see what happens, all your power is gone after the 8th.
i DIDNT build my car for a stoplight to stoplight run, thats stupid racing to me. get me on the highway and i'll play

He never said the car was stock.
You STS guys sure have an inferiority complex going on. Yall are both acting like a couple of douchebags.
someone came on here calling my car ****...... i bolted on OVER 150rwhp with the STS kit. granted it takes a little longer for boost to come in, but it has more than enough power to outrun another "pretty much stock LS1" when i get my clutch, i will be more than happy to go to the 8th and run this guy and we'll see what happens. i'll even video for you guys

ANYONE can build a top end car. You can take a completley stock camro through on a Squires Turbo and have a top end car.
It takes alot of SKILL to build 1/4 car. In a 1/4 mile the engine is only half the race. The other half is suspension drivetrain and tires.
Who cares about roll raicing? The pros are at the drag strip.

I like to watch golf on TV, does that make me wrong? No of course not, its not the popluar thing to do, but its an choice of mine. The problem is that you have 95% short changed people that cant afford or dont want to build a purpose built track car. In turn you have these bastard street cars that drive to the track (and wear it like a badge of honor) to run half assed to decent times. You say the "pros" build quarter cars, what are the guys that race the speed challenge, GT series, time attack, etc.......? You cannot label anyone by one standard, especially not when there are so many viable options. Hard to build a quarter car? Not compared to a road car that have an engine, transmission, and brakes that last for 30 minutes +. Quit being narrow minded like so many of these kids.

Still 1/4 takes more skill to build than top end.

But those cars are gone now soooo 40 roll yes in my current car...Thats fine...but get your clutch buddy, I dont want any excuses..When will this be??
then me and you will do a 40 if you want and we'll see what happens.
i could care less how fast your cam only car was and it wouldnt drag my nuts on the highway chump. I HAVE A CAM TOO + TURBO. what do you think your cam only car would've done with a turbo. you are missing the fact that my car is TURBOCHARGED. i didnt put it on there to get beat by a "mostly stock LS1" i trapped 88 with only 2 psi max on the 3 gears i ran with a STOCK clutch foo...... imagine what i would've ran with the full boost little man and a decent clutch. its ok though. i have school til 4pm and anything after that i'll be more than willing to play my friend. i'll send you a PM with my phone number and we'll set this up.

its sad to see how many people dis the STS set up, it was like 1 of the 1st things NickcZ28 said...... it doesnt matter where the turbo is at, its the fact that it is turbo...... TRT had a 408 SS truck with a T70 that ran 7.3 with a 1.35 60' in a f'ing 6k pound truck......

Granted you did have about 150-200 lbs on me though.
