Well I gotta agree with ya man. But in my own defense I am not in control of the car if it was me we would be runnin tonight tomorrow night and sunday night. So I apologize if this dont go down. That is why I left it up to you 2 guys to work out the fine details I dont want people gettin pissy with me if it dont go down. Trust me my car is not fast Yes I made the call out because we wanted to get a good race together with cars on your level and see how it matched up. It does no good going against a mid 11 car as mine is. ---

my car was on the street last summer. i ripped it apart again. keep your “street car” for the track then. ill setup and run my street car for on the street. dont come off as being better b/c your high and mighty and dont street race. iirc, you use to street race, and you know what my tail lights look like. you want the rematch when im done, ill be out on the streets–where street cars run. last time i checked, no where i have raced puts a bystander or innocent motorist at harm. only the people driving–which is same way it is on the track. ---

I am not knocking your car but do you see the PRL car out racing on the street? Nope it is a street car but is build to do something specific. Yes I used to street race when I was 18 and I have gotten into some as of the last few years but not like I used to and I definatly dont see the reason for it. we have a track 30 minutes from us, use it. Last time I checked I watched to flag cars a few years ago with traffic just goin by then you lining the cars up so sorry that is unsafe and did put others at risk so do not act high and mighty to me either. I am just tired of goin to hang out and people saying blah blah I am faster than you, you are FWD, you dont stand a chance. Not one of those people would ever fit into a class with the gutted cut up buckets they have not to mention pass tech at even a shitty track like PRP. yes a 2500lb F body or mustang will be fast, but it wont be safe for the most part and it certainly wont race anywhere but out in the sticks with some other hillbilly for some beer money. Next NDRA race you attend go see some of the domestic guys there. those unlimited street guys still have more of a street car than most of the so called “fast” stuff around here and they are goin 8.7’s with a real program and professionalism. they still have headliners and carpet and didnt cut the trunk floor out to save weight ---
