Eh-Sharif, Philthy, RudeG_v2.0, XKR,

Just a friendly reminder.

PS- This isn't rehashing anything. This is taking to mind old statements in conjunction with the Time Attack in TN this previous weekend.

I told him, those Forged stickers are worth at least 2-3 seconds....they should have left them on!
2-3 seconds would have been nice for you.

So what's that make Sharif?

13.1 is just funny with 650whp! First time I ever ran my car at the 1/4 with street tires and ~450whp I ran a 12.3 @ 120mph (and that was with a lame 2.1 60ft), all I hear is your lame attempt to make up excuses...
Competition was there this time.. What happened? Oh, Sharif Lost and you blew your motor.

This statement alone shows how much of nothing you know.
They were both on the same track... and last time they got beat by a Miata - RWD...
Love the excuses...
Same track.

What does that make a car/driver that loses to Scott and BC?

The irony..

Uuuuhhh, this is the autocross/road race forum. We don't really care about 1/4 miles times.
