It's always cool when these guys roll in (I work there).

[norotor]

Parish!!!

[s8er01z]

I seem to remember these guys at Cordova... Are they doing a private rental or just hitting the normal test and tune?

[vadorsnake04]

Sounds fun

[Superdave]

I guess they have a Dyno out there, been hearing them all day having fun...

[demonz06]

Going to Cordova tonight with a few friends.

May as well pick on a few G8's while I'm there.

[vadorsnake04]

Go get em lol.

[s8er01z]

A lot of cool g8s running. A few 10s and a few other 11s/12s.... Pretty good night to watch some racing.

[demonz06]

Rough night learning how to drive the car all over again! Best run of the night was 11.56@132.70mph.

[400plus]

The wife and I will be heading over about Lunch time.

The 60' was 1.981.

[s8er01z]

That was the run you started in 2nd gear right?

Yeah, I was wrong. It was actually 1.97x.

Also, yes...that was a 2nd gear launch. Shifted into 3rd early at 5k rpm due to wheelspin and wasn't paying attention going into 4th and shifts early at 6400rpm instead of 7k.

[vadorsnake04]

Oy YAAA, 10s all the way!

Wait...I'm probably going to regret saying that.

[vadorsnake04]

Nah, you can do it!
