I was just messin around man because you didn't post up numbers, it was a great video and I enjoyed it, you put a lot more time and effort into it than most and it looked good. I just happen to not be a big fan of drag racing, thats why I posted up what I did, diffrnt strokes for diffrnt folks, impressive times however!!!

p.s. Mike- probably would be a good idea to not badmouth your customers......

Scorke I see what you're saying, but at the same time when you make a statement like that I feel like its a slap in the face for a lot of people who have put a lot of time, money and energy into this car.

I appreciate the love you're giving now, but hopefully you understand what I'm saying.


Justchil: I can see your point of view, and that's probably because I don't think this setup gets the credit it deserves. That is no ones fault but my own, but I was hoping that by showing that this car goes 11s on pump with my absolutely horrible driving (1.84 60 foot) that it would show an extremely powerful setup. This ended up showing it in a worse light, so I did what anyone would do.....I got some help.

So the car is getting retuned for the alky and I think some really sick times are coming up.

No worries man... I think a lot of us 20G guys get crap over the turbo. When I first starting drag racing my 60's were at 2.0.. every trip at the track took off .05 and now I'm running 1.65 60's on street tires. Just takes practace man.. you'll get it soon enough.

Alky is nice!
