Maybe you missed this part but 7.0 is a 10.90 and it was on a 150 shot!

TC love to be flashed not stalled up real high. And I've tried many different ways in my 100+ passes in the car and all my real good times were just above idle (1000-1200) Maybe your TC just doesn't flash real well.
N20 dont count homie. Im N/A running those times, street tires, on 3.42's, on a 85degree day. i got people who were there and the time slips. What you run off the bottle?
All throttle no bottle here!

Nitrous doesn't count lol, well **** better let a few of my buddies know their sub 10 second passes don't count I'm sorry my stock motor car will only do 12.2. What did your stock motor car do? BTW on street tires the reason stalling it up helps more, it doesn't hit the tires as hard, flashing the converter will hit the tires harder, and if you don't have a good time hook it will spin.

Youre comparing your times to mine, if youre squeezing it doesnt count moron!
Also you have a Yank SS4000 and 3.73 right. Those arent stock. A z28 w/ stock tc and 3.23 runs low 13's. I was running that with 2.73's stock. But who cares now. Arent you one of those Fontana guys? Im done with you. Save your allowance and build your car then we'll talk. See ya.

??????????????? WHAT? Stalling doesnt hit the tires as hard? Are u stupid? Thats a lot more force on the tires off the line. You know what, go to a community college and get some automotive classes, I'll pay for them. State of CA "no child left behind", what happened?

I said stock motor not stock car. But it was full weight (well minus jack and spare and crap) With a stock stall and 245 street tire and only the 3.73s I was running 12.7.

I'm comparing your built motor car to my stock motor car. Whats wrong with that, run whatcha brung. I brought nitrous you didn't too bad so sad.

Flashing the converter hits the tires harder. I did auto tech through high school btw.
