    oh yeah Z0SICK doesn't do the dragstrip so he doesn't realize what 6.5 @ 111 means...

    111mph = 162 ft/sec

    if you just stopped flooring it at the 1/8th mile marker, and maintained 111mph...

    you'd cover the remaining 660ft in 4.05 seconds. which would end up as a 10.50 with only running the 1st half of the track

    I bet that run would be about a 10.0 or 10.1 in the 1/4, a little over 140mph. easily into the 9s with more track time.

    so... nice time dude and don't give up if you love building or driving the car. If you sell it all you'll lose all the time you've spent on it, which is probably more valuable than the cost of the parts.

    thanks and yea I was pretty speachless when I got the slip... Had to double check to make sure it was me lol especially with a 1.6 60ft. Felt great and it would be nive to be able to fix it and make it to showdown... Hell my wife even basically cried when I told her I was parting it out. I just have so much time and money invested in it Unlike zosick this car is built by me not bought with some boltons. Yea its a vette and its nicer than my car but yea...
