Nice times man. Glad someone could hook. Best i could get today was 12.4@116.. Time to add some timing, pulley swap and methanol. I'm putting on some better tires this week to help out of the traction problem i'm having.

Good deal! Sorry I missed your call, I was riding the pit bike. Did you swap out the housings or was this with the ported ones? Throw another 50 shot on it and you'll be mid-low 11's... Defiantly hauling *** for the mods you have.

Ya i believe it will do ALL 2000 corvettes..
The main reason why im selling is because i want a C5 . I know that my rear end will be going to me pretty soon when i leave on the 150 shot in hopes for a 10 sec slip that my dad said was impossible so that will be 2gs for a nice rear end that wont break . Then again i just heard my dad might be doing a turbo setup on his Mach1 so i might just keep it to make sure i keep the fastest car in the Amick Family Tree .. @ only 19 Years old i might add.. .

Ya i've got alot i mean alot of time and money in it, but come on you all know you would love to have a vette.

Now the truth comes out. You seen how fast gibsons car is on just bolt ons so you want a vette. LOL! JK man! Lets see, factory mach 1= 14's, turbo mach 1 mid-low 12's. Id say you got that no problem! They are nice, but I could never sell my Z for a vette. Just want happen. I was going to say if it would work on 99 corvettes, Im sure Josh would've been intrested.

What'd you end up doing with the green enterstate decoration (LT1)? I noticed it was gone the next day.

I sold that freaking (POS road decoration) I've never lost so much money on a car in my life i knew i should've kept my damn bike..

Nah Gibsons vette isn't what made me want a vette, i've just always wanted one. Ill keep it stock mostly, or not as wild as the TA.. Keep the decible level below 300 atleast anyways ..

I think my dad said hes going to boost i think 11lbs on stock motor. I already know ill punish that poor car.. I've already asked him for a race with me on motor and him on the 150 shot . Im curious to see how it goes bc he did outrun a nova at the street races by a car and the nove runs 7.9s at the track.. But i know my car is atleast couple tenths faster than that on motor.

Well, I went back to steele last night. Still can't get it to hook but I lowered my time a
little, 13.59@ 99.72mph. I'm even launching soft and I'm still spinning like mad. Oh well,
if I ever do get it to hook, it's on. Right now I'm gonna focus on lowering it to the ride
height I like.
