Default Wanna go Slowgreen73?

Hey Slowgreen73, I heard you'd be a good match for my lil small block Camaro. I only got shitty street tires, not even drag radials, but I'm interested in a run anyways. Let me know. Ace

First off, welcome to the forum. Second off, please pay attention to where you post, this is the grudge racing section and a post in here means you have a wad of money you are willing to put up to race.

Your alternative is the budget grudge racing section. I highly advise you to post there if you dont intend on putting a nice knot of cash up on the race. Capt buttercup, AKA SIXPACKGUT has put a limit on the ammount of money that can be bet in that section, and I believe it to be 50$.

Personally, I think you should call out someone in your league (although I don't know who that would be) If I was Slowgreen73, I wouldn't waste my time or gas running you. He could put wooden tires on his car and outrun you with a brick under his gas pedal and 3 sparkplugs missing.

My bad man. I was told that car was genuinely slow like me, but I don't know anything about him or the car. And I guess I missed the budget section, thought this was the only place to put up stuff like this. A budget area is a good idea though. I'll go try that out. Thanks for gettin me straight. I'm still new to the grudge-race-forum idea, used to talkin face to face instead. Thanks, Ace

Saw the video and yeah, that's definitely out of my league. I'm just tryin to run somebody that's extremely tire limited like me. 18 inches dont quite do that.

18" is the diameter of the rim, not the contact patch.....

Do you go to the track often? We can try something with my 94 z28. 355ci LT1 with a cam. Let me know, I prefer to keep it off the street.

Ok, I though he was talkin about some steamroller street tires like you'd see on a t-bucket. Give me a good look over the LS1 car and answer me a few questions on it and we might have ourselves somethin.

Slowgreen73, somebody recommended your car as a good match and I see now that I'm way less than what you got. The South Carolina grudge race scene is some serious shit, I had no idea. I'm impressed.

Sounds alright. Bein as I'm new to the whole SC scene and seeing who's what, how's $100 sound? Whatever questions you ask about the car, I'll answer, long as I get to know the same thing about the LS1.

Woah, I want in on some of this, Mat if you don't take it I will.

I have a Big Heavy Pickup truck on street tires all the way around sittin on leaf springs with a towing package.

I'll go for 100$ ASAP lets lock something in and get it done.

I don't care whats done to your car, I just have 100$ burning a hole in my pocket I'm ready to give to you.

Hey now, I'm just there to look tonight. Just enjoyin myself, no losing money to a "Big Heavy Pickup" tonight. From how people talk, the Lightnings down here are just as bad as the stock-idling 6500lb, 100psi, 11.0 diesels back home.

I hadn't planned on going due to an oyster roast... I suppose I can make my way up there afterwards. Are you going to be there late or what? If not this weekend we can do it next for sure.

The Barz really make my car fast... lol
