A few of us met up last night for some friendly runs. There was zero drama involved and everyone had a blast :beer:

The V rolled out! Any vids of it going up against a FBO/Pulley/tune '13 GT500?

For weighing 400lbs I think the caddy has more power then advertised.

The V made 653 with 24 degrees of timing and 611 with 17 degrees of timing. For this race it was running 19 degrees, hence my estimated horsepower number.

Damn.. V is making some waves.. I'm really impressed with the G8 though.. it proves that Lebanon isn't the best time for E.T. + MPH.. From a dig, I don't see that GT500 catching the G8 if you guys leave even..

Good Job SRZ... :beer:

Thanks! My car leaves like a turd from a dig, but I'm are the GT500 would have massive traction issues with those stock tires. I need to get a stall bad.
