I'm not a big fan of juicing the engine so I really don’t know much about it... but isn't it possible he hit it with a large dose right after 1/8th mile?

I dont mean to cause flame i'm just curious if it is possible to have done that

I don't live within 500 miles of a dragstrip so I don't have a dog in this fight.
HOWEVER:
I have kept the rear of my Fiero sliding at an angle to the road for over 1/4 mile before the speed caught up with the traction and straightened the Fiero out (over 55 mph).
I would post a picture of my slip slip but my scanner is down so you'll have to take my word on this.
That was almost as much fun as non-sanctioned ice racing on local gravel pits. Pure BS racing, no classes other than it is wise not to race some one who doesn't care about their vehicle (big dents, etc). Just plain driving, even the four bangers have more power than needed.

Lost track of why I posted, guessing it was probably to remind myself how much FUN my Fiero is to drive, sometimes that gets lost in all the competition.

Have you even taken your car to the track yet? I know youve got a big bad V8 but are you sure you wanna play?

I'm sure he and a *lot* of others are willing to "play", myself included.

Hey X. Isn't it something like "stay on the porch" or...ummm.....something like that I think. Hmmm how's that go again ? I was distracted by that 10.5 class Fiero that just challenged you.
fieroX SEP 01, 05:04 PM
10.5 eh? sounds like itll be a damn good race then.
80's BOY SEP 01, 05:25 PM
Said in a Butthead voice: FieroX, you dumbass.

A true 10.5 class does not even refer to the speed of the vehicle.

"Ummmm yeah I own the track. I am always at the track. I am the world's fastest V6 just don't ask me what tech line to get into or what class I am in. Can't you see I am the great FieroX ? Bow down Tony Pedregon! Bow down John Force ! I drive an 11 sec Fiero ! I am FieroX !"

10.5 refers to the narrowed rear-end 10.5 tire class !! It is a big money/big dog/big sponsered class of racers. And yes, that means some serious speed so stretch out that wallet cause you're gonna need it.

Ahhh forget it. You wouldn't understand. I forgot you only have a V6. You can always go on rice night.

I love it, X toots his horn, and calls on other people to come to HIM to race...

You're a wank-job, man.

Pick a spot, halfway, sack up, spend the gas and the weekend, and strut your stuff.

But don't forget to bring the money.

Jackass.

Wow, is this a new record? 2 days, 10 hours and 55 minutes for a thread to end up in the trash can? LOL!
