What are the specs on the S/C vette? and the Supra
Type of S/C and dyno figures, etc.?

I dont know about the supra, but the corvette is a c6 stock bottem end with a cam and a procharger d1sc + boltons. I think the car made low 700rwhp range, but the car has never ran good at all. A shop called HPE built the thing and thats why the car runs like crap, If it got a new tune I could see the car running mid 6's.

I am working on convincing my wife to have you do some body work/detailing to remove evidence that she had a baby

Marty there will be plenty of competition for you at the event!! There are a lot of fast Vettes/Supras/Porsches/etc. here in Texas. You will be surprised by the turn outs the show has.

Great pics. Thanks for the help KPG. The best part was the caravan. You bunch of hoolagans. It would be great to see some of the Vette's times if anyone has them available. The few pulls I made against vettes suprised me. I pulled on everyone I raced(Thankfully lil powell's was in the shop). Go Porsche!!!

You didn't pull on any M3's although you did walk the M5.

By the way, guys, I love street racing as much as anyone. But when we started to run into traffic on I-10 (in Mexico) we should have chilled on the street racing.

I agree Sean. Should have chilled once we hit two lanes. BTW, I wasn't happy with the starts of our pulls, but you having a great 60-130 time, I think its clear that the outcome of our races was accurate. Glad that pig is running like it should. Hope to see more in it! Is there? BTW thanks for the lessons in diplomacy(I can't believe I learned a little diplomacy from Sean, hahaha) it might have paid off.

Sean the Diplomat...is that a misnomer?

Others have claimed (like Paulie) that I always get the jump in the M3...but the SC has zero lag and usually gets a half length on a turbo.

LOL...I was just about to refer Slow Motions claim in his GTR thread.
