I'm in. Hopefully Jerry will have Pete's engine back together by then, he's talking 600+hp. Could make things interesting this year.

Well that makes two of us.

Anybody else out there?

I heard some red rumbling out in the western suburbs the other day. hmmm.

Ther was also some certain candy a$$ or was that candy apple paint job...
Oh yeah Lipstick what ever happened to him?
Some one told me he lost his marbles (huevos) and sold his car... true???
I wonder???

Then of course we have the "King of the Hill" bunch those that are in the tens! Will they be ther to excite and titalate? Or pilage and plunder?

You gotta be there to see... the weather Gods have promised to cooperate by giving us a beautiful cool sun shining dayin the lower 70"s

I just might make it. Got new turbos in the Spyder, but I need to up my fuel injectors...now they're too small.

But then the fuel pump comes into question.

I guess I'll shoot for it, try to get it together by then.

Well let's see members interested in participating; (besides me) is three.

2.) John Spina (possibly)

3.) Erik Keldahl
-------------------------------------------------------------
Members that are not racing but at least responded to thread or Email messages

1.) Redsnake
2.) Blas
3.) LRRCobradreamer
4.) Chris Damsch

None of the other memebers or directors has answered back yet....

Are you guys SCARED? Scared to break your car?
Scared to get beaten by a little v6?

Come on guys... Man up... and throw your hat in the ring!

I'll probably be there to lend assistance to any one needing it and answering questions about adjustments to driving style.

(that is if I can stay out of the tower)

The one that kept putting bigger cams, heads, manifolds, etc etc,

Until he finally just put in a what the heck was it a 572?

But the last time he was at the track it ran a what like 13 something was it?

Hey Arcy,

At least we have all witnessed Lipstick's 11 second runs. Not like some other's with black cars with ghost stripes and hair dryers!

I know, the weather must be right, it must be a leap year, the moon must be in its second phase, clouds on the west side of the track and a slight tail wind. Then, and only then will that Blcksnack do it again. OUUUUUUUUUCH!!!!!!!
LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Default Oh oh ...

Dang.... looks like we may have some SERIOUS competition now.

???

Let me re-phrase that... Looks like we're all gonna get our butts whipped now.

Eric 1151 (not lipstick) ran a what mid 10's run? Now that's fast.

1.) Jimbocobra / one grey car

2.) John Spina (possibly) a dark red car

3.) Erik Keldahl another (real purty) red car

4.) My car / is black.

5.) Eric 1151 / Blue car

OK, looks like the one's whimping out now are the Platinum /silver cars

Oh yeah those are built for looks and going to car shows I guess?
