The guys from SSS.com were nice enough to invite some of the Chevy brethren to a GTG at the track this weekend. Had a great time. First runs on the 20" wheels. Appear to have slowed me down a couple tenths but pulled my best MPH's ever.
12.73 @ 105.6
Damn that thing's fast!
On a side note, how'd you get Don Knotts to shoot video for you? (shakiest hands in the west) :smile:
F'in quick man. I can only dream...
That truck does fly. I'll never see 12's like my Kentucky Bro but maybe one day I get my 6200# brick into the 13's.
Man, it sucks I couldn't stick around for Sunday. I hope we can do this again next year...I can't have you beating up on a fellow Blue like that. I'll give you a run for your money, oh yeah I didn't mention I'm radix'd too!! Seriously we had lots of fun and you did miss the 120mph+ run up I65 to the museum. It was a beautiful thing to behold 6 Silverado SS haulin ass up the highway. Later

THAT THING HAUL'S ASS! HUH, MINE RUNS 105MPH AND ONLY A 14.2. MY 60' SUCKS 2.5. I KNOW ITS SLOW, BUT I'M WORKING ON IT, A NEW STALL. I HOPE I SEE 12 LIKE YOU, JUST NEED TRACTION.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(vv8 @ Nov 9 2006, 09:34 PM) [snapback]73005[/snapback]</div>Thanks, does launch well. Good weight transfer and the 4wd doesn't hurt :) , hardly turns a tire over. Think I should be cutting a tad better 60's times. Gonna change shocks out, stiffen it a bit. Might drop it a tad, might help the 60' a little. Stop the front end lift some and put the torque to work moving it forward. There was an SS there turning all 4 over launching on a 125 shot.Quote:

Gonna start putting some time into the show stuff now. Really considering getting rid of the pewter accent. Going solid color and dropping it just a smidge. Other details from there.Quote:
