Pucci,

Don't worry I'm not even sure if I'm running the bike. In order to get a decent launch I have to rev it out to about 7000 rpms and ride it out for about the first 60'. Thats why when I took it to LVD last season I only ran a 12.6@113mph because I was being easy on the clutch.

Noone makes fun of people for running slower times, it's all just good natured ribbing. Of course, wether you run the car or not is totally up to you. :) Just remember it's all in good fun.

You know we should yank the L69 from my Camaro and drop it between the empty fenders of that IROCZ in your garage and let your wife race her own car. Leanne's run the 1320, I think it's Kathy's turn. Besides it would be fun to see your GP against her Maxima, don't worry Leanne will watch Zack while mommy and daddy drag. :D

ha.. man.. look at the timeslipt database.. I'm third from the end, was slowest for the longest time, running stock in the 17's. I gather you have never been on a drag track before? I've only done it once, but let me tell you WHAT A THRILL! You should really consider it. I'll prolly have the slowest car there, and I'll be on the track it looks like! So go for a run with me first or something else slow.. lol.. it is soooo much fun!

last year I raced..... a highly modified Chevelle SS 454.... and that damn 12second 1982 Toyota Starlet.....
....hopefully she'll have a full tune up, Edelbrock muffler (rest of the exhaust will be stock... mostly for looks/sound) and a computer chip.... and the K&N which it already has... plus I'll drive better and wont have almost a full tank of gas..... oh yeah... I will be in the 15's (if I had a NorthStar I would run a 14.5....) but gotta love the old school pushrod :D
