Yes, our good buddy Ernest loves the dragstrip. Here he is (white Sky in the near lane) taking a quarter-mile run against a mustang. The mustang beat him out of the whole, but Ernest didn't lose by much, made a GREAT run! :bouncy:
His best run was 14.079 seconds at 96.44 MPH. :cool:

I don't really know, small block/nitrous I think!!! Several Mustangs were running in the 15's, was beating the pant's off of them, but my reaction times were better, I was staging shallow and launching on the last Yellow, works everytime:banasex0r :banasex0r :banasex0r :bouncy: :eyebrow: Get a lot of hole shots that way:D

If i ever get to Texas, we'll go head to head. Better yet if we get a national meet going you know we're going to have a find place. Good info bud, i'll keep you posted after i get my RedLine dyno'd this weekend.

Welcome to the forum, Pitcom! :bouncy:
We had our first national meet, it was July 14-16, 2006 in Kansas City, MO. We had an inCREDible time, over 100 cars attended. We drove many laps on the racetrack, presented awards, talked with Pontiac personnel, and reinforced strong on-line friendships face to face.
The 2007 meet will be held in Nashville, TN June 21, 2007 (summer solstice, of course!) through June 24. We will be posting details so keep an eye out for them.
Meanwhile, here's a list of active members on this forum. It is still work in progress:
