well if you were there last year i was the one with the black 97 z28 and they always called me bent rim cause my front passanger side rim is bent from a damn pot hole. im hopeing to get some torq thrust m's before i head back up there again. Im in afghanistan right now but ill be back for test and tune with some more upgrades.
my best time was a 14.08, im hopeing to get down into the low 13's by the summer.

Yea I remember ya since we don't see too many LT1s so they stand out to me. My times are around the same with a 104 trap speed so I'm hoping to get some 13 sec runs using my friends drag radials before I swap the heads and cam for these LE2s sitting in my closet.... I don't plan on hanging in the 13s for long

Kinston Drag Strip- Test and Tune, Saturdays 1-5

Test and Tune At KDS Kicks Off This Saturday From 1 till 5:00. Weather should be perfect and hopefully I can find someone to make some passes in my car with new drag radials (since I'll be stuck in the tower)

Man, I'd love to go.

I'd take my Z28 down there if I didn't need tires. I might see if I can get a set, at least the two rear ones, before the weekend.

How much is it to run? Last time I went it was $15.

Haven't checked this thread in a while. Come on out, we've had a pretty good turn out the last few test and tunes (Thursdays).
