You're gonna need more than a stupid little lid to beat the wrath of the RYDER!! You know what, I just may come back a day early if I can just to be able to go out to Baytown to not only beat yo *** but to hit some 12s
Everyone may think I'm talkin' smack to Wes but in fact it is the other way around...that little bastard gives me so much grief for still having an LT1.

Long story Joe has said he would drag my *** when he got the LS1 put in. This went on for years, and we have not raced since he had the green car and I riped his doors off. At that point in time I believe I only had about 15mph on him in the 1/4, so it was close lol. The car is looking clean Joe lets see how it runs.

Joe has a cam and is untuned... I thought you were joking with the 10.52 because that is a joke.
Yep thats what I ran last time out. When I was "Bolt-ons" I went 11.6 @ 119mph with a 1.60 60' and that was in 2004. The track was not hooking very well and in the video I spun out of the hole bad.

That is the Joe I'm talking about with the red lt1/ls1 with black hood, but he is getting it painted.
My car will be in the 10s easy next time I go out. Everyone who raced that night knows how crappy the track prep was. I was spinning launching at 4000rpm when I would like to launch at 6400rpm. I fixed my shift light so it will actually come on and I won't have to short shift. We raised the rev limiter to 7200 because of the issue of me running out of gear on 26" tall tires, 125/126mph was all we were able to get at 6600rpm.
Joe's car runs strong for what it is, but it is nowhere close to 10.52. I think 2slow must be talking about some one else's car.
