It's all bench racing as of right now but I would be happy w/ 135-140.

I get tired of reading ignorant comments from people who dont have a clue of what they are talkin about. Oh shit this is TR

I forgot thats normal around here. Nevermind then carry on.

One last thing all you advocates of dig races only. Besides the Chevelle and a very small few (5-6 cars) . I dont see anybody who has a fast dig race only street car. Unless you consider 10 sec car fast.

Most of the cars I see at the drag strip that are fast are running mid 9's to low 8's. So unless you are part of this elite group save your dig race only /Im not part of NMRA bullshit .

These people who race only from a "dig" obviously dont have 700+ hp cars on 17" Nitto's with cars that handle like there on rails.

What on Earth are you talking about? So if I don't run 8's or 9's I should roll race? Sorry, to me there's more to a race than power to weight ratio, gearing and aerodynamics. I know you can go from a dig and I'm not trying to start shit, but that comment just didn't make any sense. I don't care if a car runs low 15's, I am still much more impressed by someone that can do it from a standing start, there's car set up and driving involved, anyone, and I mean anyone can roll race, if you can't hook, start from a higher speed, no talent whatsoever required....

Sorry, I'm a bit confused here.. I have a solid low 12 second automatic with 16" DRs. Does this mean I am not allowed to only want to race from a dig?

Hey Hey Hey I see I struck a nerve but you know as far as I can remember this is a free country. So w/ that in mind starting from a roll is BS to me... Even when I go out on saturdays around here IM still more impressed w/ the people lining up going from a dig... Hell if we even jump back to topic "big fucking hint" At the track guess what they do??? You bet your sweet ass sugar britches, they go from a dig.... So I guess this making your point and ooo so angry comment nul-en-void...

Just another note dingles,

in ref. to the video forum. Even the roll races on there I'm really not impressed by. Yeah its cool and good waste of time to watch, but thats about it... Just keep in mind video's are video's and I ain't mad at ya....

Back to the topic.... 900 hp of a DJ's Furry for everyones ass....

I wanna see who comes out on top... TR or 98.7??? The world may never know....
