I was wrong sounds like a great event. :cheers:
I will try to make it :boxing

 

where i come from a race is a race. im not going to put weight in my car to make it "fair". its not my problem that your car is heavier. since you've choosen the heavy heavy STRONG iron block why dont you just upjet instead of trying to slow me down :D

 

no but you must be smokin some of that to try and call my bluff on about every single detail of my car! of course i didnt think i would hook with that combo, my car was originally setup for NA, like my sig says I was going for the NA record, but now I want to do both so I've got to scale it down some. ANYTHING ELSE???? :rolleyes:

What class will you be running at the Southern Shootout?
I was looking at the rules and classes on ls1 tech and was wondering where your car would fit in. I am trying to attend and will be in the MS/PA class.
There is mention that they require full interior as well min weight requirements depending on class.
Hope to see ya there!! :cheers:

I hadnt heard about the interior and weight requirements, damn. NPR is the closest track to me so I will be up there to spectate then most likely. Perhaps they will let me make a few runs on the side to try and reach my goal. Im going to a test n tune out there tomorrow as long as the weather is good. Will report back! hope fully with some media as well :cool:

 

You may want to check with organizers.
May be you could run the Outlaw class.
Good Luck
