[Mike]

Even you guys running faster than this index you are more than welcome to try and slow your vehicle down to a 10.0 index.

Last time we had these guys running (Ez03, 03F150, 03Turtle) they made it a very entertaining race to watch, including all the drama that EZ03 added to the mix.

[05Saleen]

If I am at the track (not at work). Count me in, with the truck.

[chrisheltra]

Id love to do this but I wouldnt have the slightest clue on how much Id have to back out to get it to do a 10.0. Can i race the new beater? It might have a low 10 in it or not.

I saw all you boys at D's yesterday on my way home.

[DolSVT00]

I may be able to get close to that with the wife's Accord..... I may have to pedal a bit though (Or have Mike and Bill ride in the back)...... last time I ran it at cooper river it ran a 9.68

You kno V-TAC all the lag of a turbo but without the boost.

[05Saleen]

Your Lightning race is this weekend?

[Mike]

Well I didn't think it was going to happen. Nobody responded to me.

Like I said I'll be there if I don't have to work with 18" Drag Radials

[chrisheltra]

If you have checked out my thread in pic and vids youve probably guessed I wont be there this weekeknd. Damn! Im going through withdraws.

[Mike]

I'm not bringing the dodge, just driving the lightning up there with low low boost, trying to hook on the 18" drag radials.

[snakeplissken]

I was supposed to go to Duramtown to ride dirtbikes this weekend but the weather isn't going to cooperate.

I might just have to bring the Yoda up there if I can get a kitchen pass.

If I turn off the traction control and hit the Power button.....

What kind of Yoda?

[snakeplissken]

The dd kind. It is, however, a V-8.
An underpowered Japanese V-8, but a V-8 nonetheless.

[Mike]

List updated. Lost a few racers.

[1iron]

Add me Mike. I think mine has a 10.0 in it


Paul

[slowgreen99]

I guess ill bring the slicks and put the 150 pills in so i can run a 10.0 so count me in.

[1iron]

Sorry I didn't make it. Ignition problems.

[Dave]

Next time I will be running the Juice, other wise I am just donating my money to who ever is pedleing the best. I still think a 10.3 isn't bad for a car that has 275k miles on it and still gets 35 mpg!!!!! Hell if I throw a 50 shot on it I might get in the 9's on a regular basis. Thanks again for all the fun.

[KeithCrash]

So fill the rest of us in who couldnt make it! Who won? who ran to fast? and who broke?

[Dave]

Morey won all our money with his 90's lightning w/o the juice.
Mike came in second with running side by side with Morey on both runs
I think I came in 3rd but may have came in last who knows
03 Turtle I think came in 4th
03 Turtle's friend that drove the Nissan Titan I think came in 5th

I could be wrong about all the other results except the first two, I know those two won first and second. Oh, and Mike won the R/T with a .047.

[Chillerman]

Morey is the man. Good job on the 10.0 index win today!!!!
