Don't worry I didn't get one either!

Then again when I was racing Paulie w/ both of us on race gas my clutch slipped bad in 4th gear... Now the car feels like its down 100+hp (It's not making close to full boost). My brother drove the car yesterday and said it feels like a TURD! Hopefully we can get it fixed soon.

A local guy here in Baytown with similar mods, but more aggressive cam, runs neck and neck with me. So I know my car is not a freak it's just a good combination (doesn't over power the tires) and puts everything it's got to the ground. Plus I try to drive the car where and how it performs to it's best abiltiy...no magic pill just a great car with incredible performance. Props to Jayson (MTI) for helping putting together one hell of a combination to make these Z's run like a bat out of hell...

Ask Steven (wormboy) about my Z. He knows first hand no "trickery" was done to run with some of those high HP cars. The car just runs hard...I'll give ya a rematch Tony...
I think we have the key here....

Seriously, I want in on this...

I'm not talking sh%t, I just havent had the chance to run my car against another comparable car since I got it back on the road. If you guys are cool with it, I'd like to meet up sometime and see how I do.

Well I was judging by Tony's 671rwhp and you running with it. Since I'm in the middle between you two I figured it might be a good run. I run @ 10lbs, 14*, 623rwhp.

That was only because Tony dropped his flask, bent down to pick it up, saw I was 1/2 car out on him, told his wife to grab his...shifter...as he was refilling his glass.

We'll have to gtg one night to check it out...
