Just wanted to give a shout out to the fellow members of s197 that I meet there tonight. There sure was some very fast 4v 5.0s there tonight.

Wish I lived a little closer to Clay City. I went to Ohio Valley Dragway last night and there were maybe 20 cars there tops. I've only seen one other 2011+ there this year and that was back in May.

DAMMIT!!! I planed on going. But did'nt get off early enough to get the new intake and run the tune for a few miles. I am usually there every weekend with some friends. Hope to run mine next weekend and see how slow it is lol. But do you go often. Don't usually see to many s197's there.

Pretty good turn out overall , I don't believe they had 100 cars for street like they had wanted but they got pretty close.

Haven't had a chance to make it down too many times this year, but I always look forward to going down to Clay City. My car is currently in pieces, but once it gets back together and the weather drops I hope to make some passes. Even if my pile is damn near stock. Midnight Mayhems are usually pretty cool too.

Yeah it was nice to meet u man. Had a great time but the car has some issues to work out. I've ran consistent 12.5s and last night my best was 13.0. Only changes the car was a frpp intake and a tr6060 swap. Plus adj shocks and lower control arms. Car blogged off the line no matter what rpms I lanched it at. Car will not idle ever since the intake install so I hope its the tune. Will be getting it on the dyno august 26 then going to the track that friday night to see what happens

I went to clay city last night. I'd like to meet some of you guys some time. I definately need to get there more often to get some more seat time in my car. It was nice to see some new 5.0's also.

It was a awesome turnout, the lanes were full most of the night. There were even some car fires but luckily nobody was hurt

Same here, I need alot more practice I can't get off the line to save my life. It was nice running you and meeting you guys, I am so jealious of you guys with the 4v, crazy fast to be mostly stock.. My car has some issues too, that leaded fuel fouled my 02 sensors, I have a fuel pressure sensor down, code p0191 and I need some better tires. Last night I had the 275/45/18 extreme contact dw tires and they just didn't have enough for me to launch off of. Id say some time in late sept Ill be back down there. When I go back Ill holler at yall
Be safe

Yup remember that car, you ran late around 9-10pm

I remember seeing it too. Car sounded good!



I plan on attending this month's Somernites Cruise. I'm hoping to get some Louisville Mustangs members to all cruise down together. I didn't know about the drag strip deal... Def will have to check it out as well.
