Default Calling out the built/nitrous stang

I don't think I remember his SN. Blackstang or something maybe? Big bad NA combo with a 300 shot.

Heads up
1/4 or 1/8

My mild Viper vs your built stang. I'll be on an 18" drag radial with factory wheels up front.

You know he ran like a 25 something in the 1/4 right?

Lol. That's Jeff. Not sure he's even used the nitrous yet.

I dont think so either. He has been really busy as of late. He still needs seat time in the car and hasnt even made a nitrous hit in it. Last i spoke to him about it he was talking about boosting it instead.

I'm sorry I just have to ask this question, but....why didn't he do that in the first place?

Sometimes people just change their minds about what they want. I don't blame him really. Boosted set ups are less hassle, set it and forget it. Nitrous systems are more involved with constant monitoring and refilling bottles. I don't blame him at all really.

The car on nitrous should be fast! I hadn't seen him mention it recently so assumed he was learning to race the car. Motor to motor I think I would cover him, but on spray he can outrun me.

He's got other things going on, new baby/baby mama, bowling etc. I think at this point he's just content with having the car back in his garage being able to drive it after being in and out of the shop for so long.

I think after his massive amounts of shit talking, not producing, technical issues with the car that had to be sorted out, he may have learned a lesson and is laying low.

This. His goals were definitely different before baby #3 became a factor.

I think he has been humbled down a little since all that.

I know he was talking about "what if Whipple came out with a 4.5L s/c for the 5.0?" And then they did...
