Default What do you think it should run?

What do you think my car should run on e/t streets when my car has run a 11.75@126 on F1's? Maybe somone out there knows the answer. :thumbs:

Based on your MPH, I think you should be very close to 11s flat....assuming a 1.5xx 60' if you think you could pull that off....low 11s for sure. My guess is your car is making about 450-500rwhp????

I was right with you guys, watching the whole time. The Viper and the silver Z06 were close, but you were not so close. It looked to me like you kept taking off before them, and they had to pass you. You do know to wait for 3 honks, don't you? you> :boxing <Viper

WHO ARE YOU and what were driving that night ?????

Damn, I was just wanting to say hello to ixlr8 and then you pop in with your 2 cents. That is really cool........

Three honk rule huh..... Now that's funny......
What's really funny is that there was just the three of us racing and no one else really close to us.......The Viper was a tad faster but NOT by much there MR. Spectator....... We did race 4 times and whoever got a jump was going to lead the whole way to 140 mph (why would I lie)The one time we stomped on it at the exact same time we were side by side 90% of way......I was REALLY happy that my car ran with him considering he was in a big bad Viper. (It was a very nice car) That was all I was trying to say. He never walked away from me.......I guess you were in the conversation with us afterwards when he was saying he could not believe I was hanging with him...... WOW, maybe you were a ghost on my shoulder...........:lolg: :lolg: :lolg: :lolg: :lolg:

Thanks for being cool,

:cheers:

Did you not notice the trail of cars behind you? Well there was one. You should go out to the get together tonight. I'm sure he'll be there. You guys could find a spot to line up. My money is on the Viper if you take off properly. My name is Hector and I was in a T/A. I'd love to see that one. I'm not trying to **** you off big fella, I just don't think your Z can hang with that car. you> :banghead: the Viper> :steering:

First of all I never said that I beat it. I just said I ran with him. We were a hell of a lot closer than I would have ever thought. Secondly who really gives a rats a**! ( I just know what I saw, hell I was driving) We were door to door for quite a ways is all I know........
I am sure he could beat me in the quarter but not by as much as you think. Now the silver Z06 was in a league of its own. That car pulled pretty good from the Viper and myself. But the Blue Z and the red Viper were pretty damn close. Sorry you were not with us to see how close we were......... I do not race that much and that was the first real race I had in my new Z. It was fun ! Maybe we can all do it again sometime.........

Whatever. The silver Z06 barely pulled him, and it was only after about 120. You mean that the Viper and the silver Z were in a league of THEIR own, and you were close enough to watch. That's what you meant, wasn't it?

you> :auto: the Viper> :auto:

What does Big Carrot stand for ?
Enough said......

I have no clue why you are starting shi** with me. My only guess is because you do not own a Z06........

I'm not starting poopie with you! You just didn't hang with the Viper. That's all I'm trying to say! You're right, you were right next to him.

Until you both hit the gas!!!
Then it was you> :sad: --- the Viper >:seeya

Now I know why you are being like this........ A friend of mine just told me that you have a DODGE viper. Well good for you ! I guess that gives you a good reason to be a little bias.....A friend of mine just sold his, because it was a big piece of shi**! But I will say this, it looked real good and ran hard when it was running........ But my little 50k Z06 did run with your buddies 80k ride whether you like it or not. You obviously do not like the fact of the matter.
If you ever need help when that Dodge breaks down, please call me. I would love to take you to the dealership in my Z.

All in good fun.......... :lol:
