GOT TO GO TO HMP AND DO 3 PASSES
1. 1.66 60FT, 7.66@90
2. 1.59 60FT, 7.49@92
3. 1.60 60FT, 7.37@94

I WAS DOING SOME GETTING USED TO IT RUNS AND IT WAS IMPRESSIVE TO ME. I SHOULD HAVE THE LS1 EDIT DONE AND MAYBE HEADERS BY THE FALL BRAWL AND MAYBE A GEAR BY THEN TWO. WITH THESE TIMES I THINK A HIGH 6 1/8TH MILE WILL NOT BE A PROBLEM WITH SOME TUNNING AND HEADERS. I HAD A BLAST

IMPRESSIVE!! That's mid 11's at the 1/4 mile!

What exhaust are U using now?
Gear?
Tires?
Stock chip?

Was that on the bottle?

Dude I think I saw you on Friday night you had just turned right on Clay going towards HWY 6. If that was you your car sounded and looked great.

You have a harwood cowl right? If so how did you get it to fit so well, mine looks bad and I want to straighten it out.

Man, I REALLY hope my car is ready by fall brawl, cause I want a peice.

My LS1 ran a 12.5 one week before it was wrecked. I've done heads, cam, headers on it before putting it in my thirdgen so we should have a really good race. Of coarse, mine will need some serious tuning....I want HP Tuners, but its expensive, so I'm going to try and find someone who already has it

Those are some pretty nice times.

I'm gonna have to pull out all the stops to compete with that, but if I can hook up, I think I'll be able to give you a good race.

Gee Wally....we were gonna have a 12.99 and faster class.

Maybe we need an 11.99 and faster class-- Huh Beaver?

Anybody on the board running in the 12's? (like I wish I was!)

I bet it was on the bottle.

Personally, I'm anti-bottle, but it just feels that much better when you beat one.

I'm OK with a bottle here and there for recreational purposes...

But you don't want to make a habit of it..it's hard on the liver...I mean .. uh .. engine.

Well, bottle or not those are some impressive times. The nice thing about running a bottle is that it gives you the option of going all the way...if you are determined you can win or break something trying.

So my next question for xtremeirocz is "How determined are you?" To win the Fall Brawl that is.

Mike, U talking about that one we saw out at Sam's Club some time back?

A couple weeks ago, at the car show at 2094 + 146, when we had the OCT. monthly in the SE, I saw a Porsche Carrera (sp?) with an LS-6 stuffed in it!!! It was from some place that does this kind of swap, but do not recall the name of the place.

The guy with the Porsche left before we did. He drove past us when he was leaving. It sure did sound strange--not at all what U expect from a Porsche!
