He is one hell of a nice guy. Also, he will answer any and all questions about his cars.

I don't think that Trans AM can go 253 in the standing mile. I would sure like to line up with him though..

I want a ride in the Z06 around track!

Didn't mean to confuse you. 14.9 is the rate to cover a flying mile at SW's speed. A standing mile - well just look at SW's video.

Got ya

That's definitely moving! That trans am is nice but I think it'd need a HELL OF A TIRE to get that power down as seen in his videos!

Looking forward to hopefully going to the next one to see SW's car in action in person...Maybe break his previous record?
