hey guys, just wanted to say it was great meeting you all and i had a good time. you guys definitely have some beautiful cars.

brian, you notch is awesome. those mach 1's set it apart from any other ive seen.

jason, thanks for letting me feel the 3.73s. and even though you have "just a prochamber and flows" your car sounded really good.

and caroyln, my Loudmouth didnt have **** on your mach. that thing just sounds insane. it may be time for an upgrade for my petty GT do you have the stingers or the regular borla cat-back?

anyway, i caught all sorts of hell when i got home. aparently staying out until 2am and not giving the queen a courtesy call is a big no-no. who knew?
but, i smoothed things over so i'll definitely be there sunday. hope to see you all there.

Yep, I raced Carolyn last night.. well, I didn't drive, Dustin drove my car.. It was a damn good couple of races. The first race she got us by a door, but she had trac. control on so i figure that messed her up a bit. The second race, we were doin damn good but he missed 3rd (nothin wrong w/that, i do it all the time) and she left us.

I didn't mind gettin beat by her tho, I mean it is a Mach 1 after all! Plus, it gave me a chance to hear that exhaust screaming from right behind the car haha.. BEAUTIFUL car! I love the way it sounds!

Nice, yeah traction control hurts pretty badly when I would drive it. Instant boggage Yes her Bassani offroad X and Borla Stingers scream Did John show up? I haven't talked to him today so just was wondering...I'm at work now. I'm going to try to be up at Petit Jean tomorrow around 9:40ish or so.

Where do you shift at Jason?

lol, JOhn didn't even bring his car down ..Yeah, I shifted near redline every gear... Jasons car does get real squiggly in 2nd gear when racing.. then a little in 3rd, its really weird feeling.. car still going straight but its like we're launching.. I really like jasons car. awesome feeling driving a car more powerful than your own.

Jason, do I still get to run it I wonder if your suspension is causing the traction overload upon the rebound? A lowered car will usually experience this problem. If this is the case, just pay attention to your mph at the track and not the E.T. The Mach 1 (as the speed increases will start pulling).

I'm thinking about going next weekend to the track. I'm not busy as far as I know.

Hey, just called you.. let me know if you are going, I would love to drive the car again and see its full potential at the track. I may race my car, but I don't know. Try to get the other guys going tooo, but none the less we might be the only ones.. lol

Let me know!

Honestly, I think its his tires not hooking up.. but it does get squiggly like it can't stay straight. Its only like that when you shift to 2nd, first is just fine.. 3rd is just fine as well as 4th... 2nd is just a weird gear in that car for traction. lol

BTW, all the power is after 3000 rpm in his car. It climbs hard.

if you guys go to the track have a good time. ask them about renting it out some weekend. how much, how long we get it, all that good stuff. i think that would be an awesome way to spend a saturday. or anyday.

oh yeah, i think im gonna order those 4.10s and SCT Xcal2 next week.
