Hey, I was'nt trying to BS. I would hope you would know that. That is not what I am about. Mathematically I thought I was doing 150 off the rev limiter during my blasts. My factory speedo only goes to 120, so anything over that I have to read from the tach. Now that I have 3.08's, I can.

Why are you always picking on me. How was I supposed to know I had 9% converter slip!

I will tell you though! What a ride, this thing was sideways all the way down the track! What a blast! I can't wait to go back next week with the boost turned up! Hopefully I get some real times with the new gears, tires, and 2-step.

I have given up on 200 mph untill I can afford a gearvendors obviously. But I am still going do some major track day action next year! At least that lasts longer then a short 1/4 mile.


Dang this is an old post!

Anyway I was just being a punk and messing with him by posting it up
