> yes that was my friend rorys stock ls1 you "smoked" congrats

Actually, my wife did the "smoking"that round [Big Grin]

All in all, we both won some and lost some that evening. I think I was 50/50 against Mustangs, of various ilks, but most of the time I was concentrating on driving rather than on who I was racing, so that figure could be off.

Congrats on the 11.9 pass Ben. I knew you could do it. As soon as I saw you light up 1.8 60' I yelled out "11.9". Too bad I left my camcorder in the car. [Frown]

Thanks Peter - I'm disappointed I didn't get it on tape, but there will be others. I was hotlapping for that pass; I imagine it's got a bit more in it with a good cool-down.

Going back for grudge night on 4/12?

So did anyone see what looked like a GT350 run. If so what was up with that car it was kicking ass all night but getting off the line a little slow. Whats in that thing (engine & suspension)

That was a great night. Arrived an hour late and managed 14 runs, could have more if wasn't skipping some.
Ran my new best 13.36@102.678, that's 98 NA Auto GT with PI headswap, hope that good tranny programming by fordchip guys will shave an extra tenth or two.

Thanks, 1.85 60' on BFG DR.
Mark, are you planing to do some cams? There is GP on new billet Comp Cams going on on the corral. Very tempting.

I'm putting in a new tranny, LTs, O/R X and a spec II clutch. Cams are out for a while. But they are in my future plans.

60 ft: 1.65
ET: 12.04
MPH: 112.7

I couldn't believe it. Oh yeah guess what....I picked some 3.73s tonight. They should be in by Friday [Big Grin] Drew commented that he should of been in the 11.xxx, but I had too much gas in the car [Mad]

Man, I am one happy guy. Look out 11s here I come. [Big Grin] [Big Grin]

On the way to the track some honda POS reved on me....some guy with his GF I think. I reved back & she flashed me! [Eek!]

Then Drew pulls off that run with a bogging 60ft....& on the way home 2 chics in an LS1 asked to go for a ride. [Big Grin]

But the absolute BEST part of the night......no broken parts!

Here's Drew's run. BTW, this is by the seat of his pants. Tach & shiftlight are non-functional at the moment.

60ft: 1.899
330ft: 4.991
1/8th: 7.515 @ 98.6mph
1/4: 11.508 @ 124.888 [worship]

Time to up the boost to 10 maybe??? Perhaps drop the front swaybar & slap on a set of skinnies & slicks??? Nahhh.....it's just a weak-nuts street-car. [Razz]
[patriot]

wow Shaun, thats some seriously fast street car [Eek!] looks like all that cam swapping has payed off. see you soon.
