sweet man..send it to me. He didn't accomplish what he wanted to. Ran a best of 13.2....could it possible be the futura street radial tires he running :


Did you cut anuthing better than a 15.5? Can't tell what the time in the pic is.

13.2 damn i ran a best of 13.4 but oh well i need more practice on lauchin this beast it was only my second time at the track so i guess im doing better..if only i can get my 60' down below 2.2..hell i think i ran against the gtp and lost..oh well shiat happens

lash- he ran FAST but i was kinda disappointed with his launch. he would spin em up before the tree, then the lights would fall and looked like he was rolling away from a stop sign. THEN i'd see him pullin low 13's and i'd about wet myself, it just looked odd considering it didn't really look like he was launching at all.

here's the video clip, and if i could ask... please don't post it on other forums (for the sake of my bandwidth) thanks

as for my times...... i think that pic was a 15.8. i was running full street trim and i got a best of 15.4, which kinda made me sad on the inside. i honestly couldn't find a sweet spot on the launch to save my life.... oh well

42zavac- i saw a few T/A's out there and i thought one of them might have been you. however i didn't feel the need to go up to every guy in a T/A and say "hi i'm from jbody.org" cause i might as well have been saying "hi, please beat me senseless for breathing your air" lol. either way, we should get a night together this summer for all the guys from the .org (jbody or not) i think it would be fun.

My friend said thanks for the vid. The crazy thing is that the stealth beat him by about 1-1.5 bus lenghts....but in that vid it looks REALLY close. Just shows how videos can deceive you.

Well.. I guess Im going... A friend of mine let me borrow his tires until next weekend... They are Dunlop somethings, and SHOULD be better than the generic ones I was running... So far on the street, they dont seem any better..... So now, I have 2 different styles of rims on my car.. .haha
The guy who let me borrow the tires should be there in his Red C5....

Hope to see some of you there! I'll be there around 4pm, even though they dont open until 6...

He got rid of them a long time ago.....

These tires dont seem to help at all on the street.... they are still like 460 for tread rating... a LITTLE better compared to the 640 tread rating I HAD....

Oh well....
