I missed it at the track in 4th gear at over 100mph with a crappy stock shifter. The Soul-less ginger missed 2nd at 30mph on the frontage road leaving the meet in a built car. lmao.

If you're talking about the camaro then it's not a built car and it has a stock shifter in it.

So are you racing your uber fastest 5.0 in DFW against some other cars tonight or you just going to keep bench racing?

Yes I am. If I do race anyone it's not going to be at the speeds like you guys race at getting up to 170 mph plus. I'll do a 30 roll to 120.

lol ok, so street racing is ok. Just to a certain point above the speed limit. That makes total sense.

A vehicles braking and handling ability obviously has no bearing on that...LMFAO

Maybe now that you aren't busy building Jeff's uber fastest 5.0 in DFW you can finally get me those prices I asked you for 3 weeks ago. Between not getting my price checks and PM's being ignored I'm starting to take a hint here, Red..
