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.
