1.9?? 60 foots? Unless those tires hook really damn well it seems a little fast. What do you do in the 1/8th and is your car full weight? tuned? and what size tires?

I have had people come talk **** on my car many times, I ask the what they have and what they have done, chances are they are running faster, but the ammount of money they have in it is sad. And I never took shots at your car to talk ****, I simply stated that for what it has done it IS running slower than it should, if you can't handle that than thats not my fault...

I had a 230/232 cam on my other car and was shifting at 6400. Every car is bit different as with the mods it varies. Once you get you launch down try other things like shifting and see what works the best. When your stock it's easy but when you start the mod it may take time to get everything dialed in. Good luck next time out

Explain to me how I was running my mouth? I say your car is running slow for what it has done to it.... never said your car IS slow, just said its running slow, which there are many variables, getting use to car, getting it dialed in, needing a tune, there are many things you could have said, instead you just get mad and say well lets race for money then then we will see who is slow. Never claimed to have a faster car than you and never claimed that your car was slow, simply stated the fact that almost everybody agrees with me that for what yor have done it is running slower than it should, if you take that as me calling you out to race you for money and saying your car is slow and talking ****. Maybe you just need to say something like yeah first time at the track and I am still getting a feel for it, not take it as some personal shot at you or your car.

Yeah exactly thats showing you how much faster your car could be, basically what I am saying that you didn't pick up on is look how fast my car is running, imagine what you could be running if you got to know it better and maybe a tune

either way, sorry if I came off like an ***, I do alot actually, but all I am saying is dont think thats all you can turn out with your car, you can do muuch better you just need to get some more seat time in.
