Default SLOW OpticZ06

Well just got back from the 1/8 mile back woods track. Let put it thins was either I suck dring this car or the track sucks, I will go with the second one. Time are 8.6 at 90mph with a 2.6 short time "can you say crap track" oh well, I only got two runs. I am changing out the intake in the morning to a new one I want to see if the Halltech makes more power or the other one that is coming to my door in the moring. I'll keep you guys up to date.

I't was nice meeting you Sean. I saw your last run but didn't hear the time.
My best run was a 7.64@ 91.86 and my worst was a 7.72. I usualy run in the 7.5/7.6 92/93MPH range, but it was hot tonight.

Optic,

I think you suck at driving is all AND you are now learning that QS cars are faster then other colors. :D :D :D

AKA the 60' times suggest track prep was not there.

Judging by your signature and first hand experience watching your car run you might want to consider bringing your mother to the party so you will have someone's shoulder to cry on when I’m done with you AGAIN!! :lol:

So I guess that means you won't be coming to BG in September? That is a shame, by then you might have your 60' times down to 2.0 if you practice a lot :D :D

Speaking of signatures, since you don't have the QS any more time to update and put in your kick butt times in the new toy :jester
