I'm not sure what's more impressive, the fact that the track hooked hard enough to severely bog my car or the fact that my stock clutch hooked hard enough to do it
Had I had more time I was going to try a 4500 RPM dump and powershifting to get into the low 12's or at least grenade the 10-bolt

I'm not trying to call B.s., I watched it on tape. It mighta been someone elses car. My buddies camera sucks *** and I couldn't tell if that was you or what the board said. It looked like 13.78.
Either way man, congrats on the times and I hope to see ya the next time around.
Same goes for JTMetal, even though he's probably feeling extremely robbed right now.

Our cars are almost identical, except his has swirlie rims and no front plate. I raced against him on both runs, he was in the left and I was in the right 
He should be doing better. After some investigation yesterday we found out the reason he's eating plug wires. There's a pinhole leak in the collector of his Hooker shorties that's acting like a blowtorch
We also found he has a knock problem, not sure if it's false or real at this point. I'd like to fix his problems and see him take down some LS1's next time

Damn, that's rough. Plug wires can get expensive.

What are you trying to say here Andy
I will check my video again this weekend and see what everyone ran. I thought that JT Metal ran a 13 something? If he infact ran the 12.27, the trophy is his if he wants it. I was just goin by what I quickly saw at the track, and JT metal left right away after the racing so we didnt know where he went. If he did run that time, I will give the trophy back to you Andy and you can ship it to him. I have NO problem in giving the trophy back, just let me know what to do.
Next year if my setup makes the power it "should", I will bring home the Fastest LT1 trophy
Re: Fbodyowners.com Track Day Oct. 24th
Stop It With the trophy!!!!!!!!!!!!My first Pass out 12.27 @ 117 My second pass 13.34 @ 111. The Post that andy left originally said "Trophy for the fastest LT1 & LS1" Come one Come All. Now He's Changing it to "you have to be a member to win" & "I would have gotten the trophy but i left too soon." also Andy is correct again. I didn't show up because I knew that it Was F/body Day. But I did Join up Because I thought It Would Be Cool and it would be cooler if I some how won a trophy while being part of it......what's done is done...........Joe

Like I said, since none of us actually knew what you ran for times, we didnt know who to give the trophy to. Hell, we didnt even know where you were parked at to ask you what you ran, or to even give you the trophy. You were the fastest there, so therefore you deserve the trophy. PM me with your address and it will be mailed to you
I am not pissed that I have to give it up, whats fair is fair, right? I am completely fine with it, I just wanna make sure everyone that raced with us is happy, and that everyone gets what they deserved. Let me knowBrian
Re: Fbodyowners.com Track Day Oct. 24th
Whoa. This kinda got outta hand. As stated before, no one really knew what times you ran and you left right away. How are we supposed to give you a trophy if you're not there? As far as I knew, Brian was the fastest LT1 there. I didn't see your run, couldn't even tell what it was on the tape. So before you get all bent outta shape, we can solve the issue rather easily. Brian is willing to relinquish the trophy to you since you are apparently the fastest LT1 that was there that day. So no need to get all miffed about it. Just let us know if you want it man and it's yours.
