    Talked to the guy before we ran and he said he had a pulley and something else. He also said his best time was a 13.2. So I figured it would be a good race with me being AWD. We hit a light. And Off the line I pulled hard. I Had a lenght or so and he started to pull and ended up passing me around 80. I dont know how his take off was, but I need a cam now and he wouldnt have caught me. It was a nice try though. Allstar raced him also from 20 and was neck and neck at 80.

    Also Killed a new eclipse, and an LT1 trans am.

    Raced a heavily moded WRS that ran a 12.5 and got smoked from the get go. Ohh well though now its time for a cam.

    Still for what you have... awesome job. You mods are really basic for that SS. Awesome kill on the eclipse, and just a little more and you have the lightning.

    Good kills on the others&#33; Yeah dude, you need the cam bad. If you had it, the outcome would be different. I can guarantee that. Once you install the cam and get it retuned, that Lightning would only see your taillights...

    As for the WRX, those little bastards are potent. You can take a stock WRX, but they are rarely stock. Don&#39;t even try an STi, they can move pretty well too. They run a 13.0 stock...

    Speaking of your cam, are you going to try and put that thing in soon? You have anyone down there who has done a cam swap before? If it comes down to it (as in no one can help), I may be able to get down there and help out. Just let me know...

    Those EVO&#39;s are another one to look out for&#33; I think they are like 13.2 stock. I&#39;ve got a buddy that runs 11.60&#39;s in his&#33;&#33;... Freakin crazy&#33;
