I don't think so!!! I can here her snoring from here. If I didn't know better, I would have thought there was a lumber jack sawing down trees in my bedroom...

Sorry guys but i can't seem to figure out why they don't show up
From wildthang's last post i asssume he was able to see them....but can't anymore?
I even tried to re-post them but to no sucess
Wierd thing is that they show up on my comp at home but nothing going here.....i even called up my buddy and he said he saw them......MODS...a little input would be great.

yeah thats v8boys's car he posts here occasionally. it was running 11.5's@119 w/1.7 60 ft. that day. very impressive for having just longtubes 4:10's. and a 150 shot, but he is one hell of a driver though. pretty crazy that with more traction its a low 11 second car. much props too him. clean car too.
here is a vid of one of his runs 11.5@119 [ January 18, 2005, 07:03 PM: Message edited by: 00NIGHTMARE ]

yeah that car was quick...during tech inspection, one of his buddies told us that that car hold the record for fastest 20XX(I forgot the year) with only bolt ons at 12.90. I'm not sure where that record applies though.
If he only has gears and long tubes, then that's even more impressive...

yeah he went 12.8 N/A that day too. oh and he also has pulley's and a k&n if i remember right. plus a rear seat delete, but two 10lb bottles were put back there so not much weight reduction from that lol. [ January 18, 2005, 07:55 PM: Message edited by: 00NIGHTMARE ]

That Stang was very quick and clean. But the inside looked damn near gutted to me. No carpet/no passenger seat/rear seat etc. Only thing in the cab was the bottle and driver seat.

What is done as far as tuning.
I'm pretty sure he wouldn't be running that 150 shot w/o some timing taken out?
Anyway congrats on the quick car.....and the big-n-little set-up looks sik.
Are those Bogarts on the front?

as far as the tuning we didnt have to take really any timing the nx kits r designed to run with stock timing but we did remove a half of deg. from base timing. Byron at apex did the tuning for me. yes those r bogarts good call.
PS: thank to everyone for the compliments ive been building the car for over 2 years and to read the things that ur saying makes me feel like i did a good job
