    If I cant beat Gene by atleast 2.25 seconds I will never be able to show my face around here again.

    Nevermind that, even my math is slow. My brother was only runnig 13.4 with the same setup and thats the number I was trying to come up with. so I need to beat Gene by 1.75 seconds.

    Edit again... Id just be happy to beat him and maybe hit any 13 since its been so long since ive ran that. and you guys wont get rid of me that easy anyways.

    I'm sure you do. Guess I'll use the bottle then. It should push my heavy ass car close to 12.7 @115 again.

    Whats the handicap? my current setup is basicaly unknown for an actual time down the strip. Only runs I ever did with this engine and the AOD were the silly half track runs that gene beat me.

    So what is the official day and time?
    Is it going to be an all day thing on sunday?
    Maybe a meet sat. night?
    Just wondering, because if I travel from Vegas to Phoenix I would be able to do a sat meet and maybe hang out some sunday. But can't make sunday night. If it is oct. 2.
    Kinda hard to read through all of the thread.
    Thanks.

    Well this thread is more for just the local bull****ting, not really the talk about the meet. Me and Gene are talking about racing before the meet since my car will be down on Oct. 2nd when the actual meet it is.

    The thread about the meet is here http://mmb.maverick.to/showthread.php?t=79140, of course theres some other crap going on in that thread too but the first post has all the details. Racing and the meet at the track is on Sunday. If enough people are in town and want to meet up there is a cruise in car show on the west side of town so you wont get too far from the track. We could maybe have a little pre-meet there to entertain our out of town guests if there are any.

    I have one, but you have to take the whole C4.
