Hell, I'll bet you lunch/dinner you don't even bust into the 12's your first time to the track on your everyday street tires like I did. :Moon:

My everyday street tires are Mickey thompsons and I won't run 38lbs of air in them either. Only a fool would go racing in 48 degree weather and run 38lbs of air. Oh wait you did that :facepalm:

I found it easier to shift my car than I did nics with the mgw..... His is shorter but mine is smoother.

I wanted to know how fast it was with the way I drive it on the street with no changes. I didnt borrow tires, change pressure, change tunes, or have someone else drive my car.

I notice you didnt accept my bet either. lol.

I saw your little challenge, but I'm not interested. My car isn't a track whore, not sure that car will ever make a pass down the track. I've only put 150 miles on it since I bought it and I want to put some miles on the new tranny before I start slamming gears even on the street. I would hate to break something on the ancient car.

My car isn't a track whore either, but it was fun to go do with a group of friends. :)

You shouldn't need to shift into 5th anyways. I didn't have to in your car either. Hit the limiter in 4th as I passed the line in your car,wasn't even close in my car lol

I'll be at the track with you guys I just don't see myself racing the vert. Any ways do they allow cars as ancient as mine on race tracks

Dale just got an 82 and will be there

It's a joke I'm just fucking with Steve since he keeps calling my car ancient. I've had dragsters that where decades older than my vert.

Of course, but you will probably only get one pass if they allow you through tech. under a 13.49 with a vert needs a rollbar.

Unless you go to Dallas Raceway, probably wont be very fun for you at Ennis.

That's kind of been my point. If I go I'll get one pass and be shut down. There is no reason to pay extra for one pass. I'll never put a cage in the vert so it will never see any track time. Now if it was a hatch or a coupe it would be a different story. I got the car to cruise and have fun.
