His name is jason. very nice guy. he hung out and raced with me and some friends. its STONE STOCK and it ran 3 12.7s and a 12.8. pretty impressive IMO.

Cool thing is his mother gave him her car when turned 28 and he is givng the shelby to his 5 year old when she turns 28. the car his mom gave him he is giving his younger daughter when she turns 28.

I brought out my svo, we were hoping to make it into the 13's but never made it. The car is pretty much stock (some may remember me posting pics of me welding on my exhaust cut-out) other than that it all it has a fuel pressure regulator, high pressure fuel pump i got for christmas (thanks plazma!) k&n air filter, and a gillis boost controller. It still has the stock intercooler which does no good that will probly be the next mod. I spent about a week in all wiring up my new standalone which was pretty cool. we went to the dyno saturday before the race and it did 212 hp and 317 ft lbs torque. Levi and walt tuned it for me, i dont know enough about that yet. I know a/f and stuff but havent really learned the megasquirt...i will the more i get to mess with it. Anyways, first 2 pulls car felt really great but didnt 60 ft for shit. It usually does 1.6 1.7 60 ft's, it did 2.0 and worse at bradenton so that killed my times. At one point i was beating a 350z but then my gillis screwed up and went from 20 lbs boost to 10. grrrr. We cleaned the gillis and it did better, then car wouldnt hook up. lol. Needless to say i got frustrated, car was hot, called it a day. At least the car looked good going down the track! i have my bf plazma to thank for that too

Good news is i do have one thing to brag about.

At least I wasn't sleeping on the tree like the evo driver

Damn sounds like it was a fun. See a few of the Honda people I know and I think I've met that guy with the GT500 before. And I heard the Pinto was badass.

I didn't go cause I thought it was going to rain and didn't want to waste the gas just to come home with no time slips.

Looks like I could have gotten a couple clean runs in and not had to wait.

Was the track hooking good?
