Btw, you guys forgot to mention KonaBlue10GT, he ran 11.96 on the stock longblock IIRC. Unless the 2010's don't count as an S197 to you guys LOL.

I have no doubt Adam would have run 11's without the cams but like Art said he did have them installed on his .96 run.

Sorry man, I haven't been this happy in a long LONG time. I'll knock it off...


You are among friends here, no reason for you not to brag about being happy for the first time in a long time. Everybody who knows you two should be happy for you!

Carlo's car ran stupid fast... I still can't get over it. With a 28" tire and a 4.56

He inspired me to do the stock long block 11 second thing xD

When you finally run in decent air, you're going to fly, I have no doubt.

I agree 100%. Even though I will probably be on the losing end we need side by side stock longblock 11's:beer:

you going to florida? spring break

Nope March and April are usually impossible for me to get away due to work. I was hoping to get some late February passes in but we have 2 feet of snow here so that's not happening. Probably no racing for me until May which sucks.

Nope. Spring Carlisle is that weekend so I will be working at the show. I usually don't get a single day off that whole month, every weekend there is a show somewhere I have to be at.

That sucks....

New England dragway had a cool event last year that replaced Fun Ford, they had a N/A S197 class. I couldn't make it, but I bet they could improve car count this year if they have the class again.

They don't have an event flyer for it up yet but it's on the schedule.

Cecil.... how far is it from Detroit? lol

I hear that track is stupid fast


I just looked up the trip duration on google maps :). It's about 9 and a half hours on the shortest route(up to 11 hours on the longest route) to Cecil, compared to est. 11 and a half hours to Rockingham, and 18 hours to Bradenton.
