Default Indy C5's

Just wondering if any local Indy Vettes want to come out and play sometime, either at the track, or at the "secret test" track :D . Or just to hang out and check out each others cars.
Also does anyone know the local Lingenfelter 427TT Vette owner? I believe that it is the purple color, or possibly even red!?!?! I just heard about the car from a friend, but have not seen it yet.

South Side, guys.

Tim, I tried to ask the same question long ago for you. Had no responses. http://forums.corvetteforum.com/zerothread?id=494986

Chris, you'll need more than mid-13's to hang with Tim's Supra. :yesnod:

I'm in if it ever stops raining, and I can get some front brakes on my car :smash: I went down with Sedanman 2 weeks ago and the brakes went away as soon as we got off the highway.

Tim - whats up with the diff user name? or is this a different Tim with a Supra? :)

Brody - Did you end up going out last Sat? If so get any Kills then or on Friday?

Yeah J, I'm getting to be friends with the Mustang guys since you never show. :mad Nobody wants that. :lol:

Still have a nail in the sidewall, so I've been tame lately. Only kill was a newer M3.

Pretty funny, the 03 Cobras all came back with pullies (4 and 6 lb) last week. Guess they didn't like being beaten by a stock C5 coupe.

Hey Brody, long time no talk to!! I got my hood open now :lol: . I found out who the guy with Impala is, I think his last name is Green, and I think he lives in New Castle, but its not a 427TT, its a stroker (not sure what size) thats blown with a Novi-2000.
I know theres a guy in town with an LPE427TT, but I don't know his name. Larry Henselmier told me who he was, but I can't remember, I'll have to assk him again.

Tim, Good luck on your search for fast cars here in town, it must be lonely at the top. You'd think with LPE so close by, we'd be overrun with tubro vettes, but I guess there's a reason when it came time to expand, they went to DFW.

Good to hear you've got that hood mod fixed. :lol: I can understand why you wouldn't want to show me that LS1 you transplanted into it. ;)

BTW: IM me over here if you're going to be down on the south side soon. :cheers:

My fault I have been talking to so damn many people lately I got you confuesd with a Guy named Bob with a white T78. My bad.

Do you by chance have one of the black ones? I was at IRP early in the season and watched one of the black ones go 12.5's in the mid 120's. If that was you and you trap mid 125ish then we would make for a nice race. :) I'll be at IRP next Tuesday most likely. But will be out of town next weekend so won't make the southside again. :rolleyes: I'll only be spraying an itty bitty 75 shot tuesday so you should be able to have your way with me, unless my new 125 jets arrive since sadly my dog ate the last set. :smash:

Either way I'm sure I'll see ya' around :)

I doubt that either of us will be there Tuesday, seeing as how its supposed to rain for the next month :mad .
I have one of the black ones, but the one that you saw was my friends (Eric). Mine traps just a little bit higher :D . His is under the knife right now, and should just as good as mine soon (hopefully).
I'm sure we can meet up sometime though, just let me know when.
