No Ego’s (well, that I came across…except the guy with the tubbed old car)

[/quote]

just curious which guy in which tubbed car you were referring to?

if it was who i think it was…there were zero egos. new chassis and suspension for the first time at the track…litterally finishing the car hours before we made it out there…was mainly practicing launches and making suspension adjustments…Bob wouldnt even let him run past the 300 ft mark because the track was crap for what the car is…

was a good time though and got to see alot of people on here run there cars…some impressive…

It is who you are thinking of…I’ve only met him a couple times, but he’s very nice, definately NO ego, he even hooked me up with a burger today…:tup:

Hell of a runner 2stang! I was @ the lights when you went by, sounded like a fighter jet taking off!! 10 second flat, ever hit the 9’s?
Bet you did.

2stangs…I got a vid of your beast flying down the track. I’ll either PM it to u or post it up. I got a vid of Sherm and Pat going at it. I got a bunch of myself not getting traction…Im not bitter though. I dunno WTF was wrong with my launch, I couldnt even go at half throttle.

I was wishing you could have made it…I needed some tuning…

:frowning:

sounds like everyone had some nice times in :tup:
BigED- How the hell did you run 14.5? did you get the “PULLEY” on?

no pulley yet i dont think… the gtp just loves the race gas… and the headlight removal mod that every gtp owner and their mother does at the strip

Nope, no 9’s yesterday…denied. It does sound sweet at the end of the track too, I can really hear the SC cranking.

And as far as the vid goes, post it up, that would be great. Thanks guys.

And the traction SUCKED yesterday btw. Couldn’t 60’ for shit.
