NJSPEEDER VS Buoniconti81
 

Tim thinks he can beet me. Sooooooo I'm willing to race him anybody wanna watch wed at Englishtown. By the way I'm Gary. I drive a 1998 Corvette, I have installed Vararam, long tube headers, x pipe corsa performance exhaust, and a asp underdrive pulley. Tim on the other hand has a 1999 SS Camaro, with only a cat back. I'm curious as to know if he's lying as to what was done.

Tim don't lie. He's a drag racing machine.

Does anyone wanna go......

Was this deleted

no .... moved.....

you wouldn't be posting in it if it were deleted... and if i finish my HW in time wed, i will be there

i may be there..what time are you going Gary?

englishtown wont be open wednesday, they will be setting up for the swap meet

but if im wrong, ill be there

etown shows as open wednesday night on their schedule for the usual noise night :)

the car only has the cat back and the whisper lid, jsut like the sig says. some little stuff has been ordered for ht ecar, but will not be here before you and i race wednesday.

see you at work and at the track buddy :)

p.s. for anyone who hadn't heard before, i have worked with gary for a while now and we are both car guys. we bust each others stones all the time, so this should be fun.

THE TALE OF THE TAPE

Gary's 1998 Corvette

stock curb weight 3245
factory HP Rating:345
transmission: automatic
performance mads: Long Tubes, Vararam CAI, Corsa Cat-Back w/ X-pipe

Tim's 1999 Z28

stock curb weight: 3580
factory hp rating: 305
transmission: T56
performance mods: SLP Loudmouth Cat-Back, Whisper Lid

on paper the answer is clear, but we don't race on paper, so we will see how it goes. i gotta take the tree from him pretty bad to even this up and since it has been years since i have competitively driven a stick car, my odds of blowing it even if i do steal the hit are still pretty high. lol

I might head down after work. how much is it to watch?

Englishtown is like $15,000 to watch on a wednesday night...or something like that. :lol:

I'll be working and won't be able to make it :( Hopefully someone will be able to tape it (Tim should have his video camera with him).


Any cash ridin' on this race, or just Lowes Pride? :lol:

hmmmmm, interesting question. gary?

seeing as tim has the t56 and hasnt raced in a while. he could knock out a high 12

garys never raced but has the advantage of the auto and not spinning as much plus the lighter car and more mods, he COULD potentialy go mid 12s.

if i put money on it id say gary by about a car. $20

gary PM me for tips :)

He's lucky the hypertech tuner isnt in, and my asp underdrive pulley isnt on yet, maybe tue That alone should add 25 more horse.....Oh well...How much is it to race?

haha, thanks for the love demonicbird. giving my opponent tips. i love it.
like i said in the tale of the tape, the winner on paper is obvious. so it is up to me to steal the hit and not screw up.
it is all for fun and maybe some lunch money, so it is worth it either way.

btw gary, it is jsut a Z28, not an SS as you put in your original post. talk to me at work monday if you wanna drop a few bucks into this game.

hehe, i know tim. this is actually gonna be a real tight race. just dont miss a shift!!

-brandon

btw itll prolly be about 20 bucks to race there. never raced there so im not positive. i know atco is only 13 bucks to run

Can't wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

automatic with full exhaust and no stall converter? would that hurt him down low a lil bit?

my 98 went 12.97 @ 110 with a lid and catback on street tires, with a 2.06 60'

Tim, get a nice R/T, and a decent launch and no missed shifts, i think youll take him.

and remember the article from GMHTP? Evan Smith from Muscle Mustangs and Fast Fords went 12.89@109.18 in a bone stock 6 speed camaro off of the showroom floor.

yeah, but i know evan, he is prolly a better stick driver than anyone in this club. he also had the quickest test pass ever in a cobra R.
with the two little bolt ons i am confident that i can see a low 13, maybe a 12 if things go perfect. taking the tree from gary is definately gonna make or break this match up, cause he will kill me on the back end of the track.

let evan drive your car then lol

Tim..... come up here and buy my 10 bolt.... it has 4:10's and a locker!!!!

Best of luck!

I'm sorry but tim's car isn't off the show room floor, and it's still a camaro no offense but they didn't build corvette's to get beat by stock camaro's. The only way tim will beat me is if I let him. I'm confident my Corvette will win! Hey tim lets see loser buys the other Ruby Tuesday's. I feel like having a steak. Medium rare Hahahahahahahahahaha
