After that they were old 95-98 camaros, trans-am F-bodies, or old mustangs.
+10000000 plus the guys that can run that fast and try have major traction issues.... me included...

I think that most of the TT 350s, if they run a DR, can run in the 11s. Given the massive # of F/I 350zs in the Bay Area, plus many local 300s running solid 11s, 12s, and lower, we could make a pretty cool video. I'm game to head up to Sac with a crew of people. Bigbri - what is the best night (Wednesday?) to go up, and is one week better than another? Last time I went there a gabillion cars were there. I think I got 4 runs in. We should set something up for June?!?!

Nice car bro. How often you drive your car? Never seen it around town. Let me know if you're hitting up a wednesday night at sac raceway. Would love to see your car in person!

A Saturday works for me. Let's kick around some dates sometime. I'll see who I can grab from the 300 forums too. The first 3 Sats in June are booked for me (driving to the National Z Convention in Dallas!). July may be better (although hot)!

I saw the thread about a week ago, but I haven't been on the board much lately.....just poping in and out here and there. My wife was in a really bad car accident and I moved into a new house (still no internet access other than at work). Here's what is left of my 1 week old daily driver. I think it can be fixed.

Got my car back.....710whp and that was at 6500rpm at 20lbs if boost slipping off the dyno with 4 5 gallon water jugs in the back and my tires were shooting out rubber ***** the car jumped the dyno up to 850whp because it was to much for the dyno....my car peaks at 8100rpms and 23lbs of boost....so I'm gussing somewhere around 750whp......I have never drivin anything like this and it is so much faster than my old setup it scares ME...So I'm going to go to a different dyno and have 2 friends sit in the hatch to get more accurate #'s..... All I can say is the sound at 8000rpms and 23lbs of boost is music to my ears....
