Went to the local track.......Met up with a guy that had a 99 Z28 with the bolt ons and the gm hot cam. Car was fairly loud. Anyway we lined up the tree hit and so did we. I spun more than I wanted to......but I pull a half a car on him out of the hole. Then he missed a gear which put me about two cars ahead. At first he wasn't gaining............then I look up and here he comes. About at the top of my 3 gear on my turbo 400 tranny is when he caught and passed me. His car ran good. If he had not missed the gear early on he would have put it on me pretty bad. But I have fun losing races and I have fun winning them. (winning is better:( ) I met up with this guy in Burleson, cool dude...........My hats off to you on the win.:)
I had my buddy Bob with me at the time...........I would have lost even if he wasn't in the car.

Yeah.........that .490 lift cam of mine probably needs to be a little bigger. I think some giggle gas will be in the near future also. I have a good time wether I win or Lose.;)

Yeah I've met up with that guy (pewter z28 on enkie wheels) a few times. He has the GM Hotcam/headers, and he told me about that race up at the "local track".
He was in Burleson last night with a red SS LS1, and I was in a steel gray/silver stripes Viper GTS.

I have seen you a few times up at the Tiger Mart getting gas. Hell of a nice car:cool: I was impressed with the way his car ran. He babied it out of the hole pretty good. IF it wasn't for the gear missing I would give him the good driver mod . We will all have to meet up and go have a drink sometime. I would buy you a drink or two for a ride in the Viper;)
