People were breaking their necks to get a look at us when we started cruising! Not everyday you see a dozen SS's in a line haulin' ***.

I have some decent pictures from the cruise I will try to get some of them posted a little later.

Anybody else have some damage from rocks?

My car got more beat up on Sunday then it had in the past 7 months taking trips to both Phoenix and Vegas.

I have one real nice one through the paint into the fiberglass!

If you guys go to Famoso, I'll probably be down, just to meet up with some of you. I doubt I'd take my truck down the 1/4, it's far too slow.

Damn Bro! sorry to hear that. No paint damage here, I might be too high up though.

Time for some ghost flames

$100??? shiatson. I've never been to a track, so if I don't run could I still park and chill in the pit area? as much as a poser move that is, its all I can afford. Are any tuners going to be there?

From the way you have been talking it sounds like that thing is a beast considering your size disadvantage.

If he has a disadvantage it hasn't appeared yet. The cam will only make it better. I felt like a 4-banger next to him on the freeway last Sunday.

Soquel, I know at Famoso guests are free on Private track day, I would imagine that its the same anywhere...

Brian, did you get the 411 on the private track rentals?

Grippy, looking forward to linning up the HD's..

04, Noticed your in Bako, what color is your truck?

00, If we go to famoso you should run even if you are stock... You will catch the bug, and you will start figuring out where to get the dough to start boltin stuff on, and besides its good experience! You live in Bako also right? I think I remeber messaging you a year or 2 ago..

Thanks Bro, appreciate that.
Just the Radix, nothing else really.
No 1/4 mile runs yet, I'm itching though, I expect like a 14.7-14.9.
My best Gtech 0-60 is 6.1 secs and 60ft is 2.3, horrible because I have absolutely no traction
