Paul, you are exactly right...got my references mixed up.

If I had been slowly building my experience base at triple digits on a country 2.3 mile long isolated, no driveways flat and straight road it would be fun to report that 125 to 140 mph is getting much more comfortable and familiar. But then, we all know that's going 85 mph over the state speed limit so that must just be a rich expression of a fantasylife, right?

I'm sure a lot of us will get to interact in Bowling Green from all over and I want to see and hear some of these tuned cars with the power at your disposals. I haven't seen the itinerary yet but I hope there is a part day cruise as part of it when there. Hope so, or a check drive.

The June 1/2 mile in Chicago area I looked at the fliers for and it looks very interesting, there and in another location I think. You are doing it, Paul?

Have someone video it for you if possible. You will be very competitive.

With the 4:10 rear end will it keep you below 150 mph in the 1/2? Any references to compare it to for your own expectations?

I can say that on the hypothetical 2.3 mile stretch mentioned above that it does not seem to take 1/2 mile or much over to get to the speeds I'm fantasizing about and I reference 3:45's and more or less stock lt5 that's just been chipped with Samco hoses and K and N air filter only so you should do way, way better.
