smack talk... cam'd lt1 goes down

So I pretty much have boltons and nitto dr's. Went out and raced a couple cars, one being Darryl aka FastWhiteTA. We went from a stop (I kinda jumped a lil hoping that he was gonna do the ol' one two launch then three, so I left after the second honk) Pulled two cars from the line since I already had 1/4-1/2 from the early jump and on top of that got mad traction while he spun through 2 gears, then held him off by a car at 105-110ish then we shut down. Now I know that I got lucky and the jump, and I would lose if he had dr's too, but I'd just like to share on how much dr's really help compared to street tires.

Well I just saw this post, Lee..

He did whip me. But he was right, after a 2 car initial jump, and after me spinning thru 2nd, heh, he still had me.

But,

Well, we found out yesterday the "real" truth. We realized I need gears, and you need a better clutch. Once you get your clutch replaced, and I get the 4.10s (can you say 7s?), we'll go and you spray your 100 shot and see if you can take me then. Sound good?

(after yesterday, and if I have the 4.10s, it's looking like you might want your bottle pretty hot hehe )
