    I have no problem lining up with you, and I do plan on going there.

    Problem is, I'm not setup for 1/4 mile racing...I'm on street tires. I'm lucky to get below a 2.1s 60'

    the best short time my car has ever pulled of is a 2.0 and thats on a slick...
    i was just wanting to mess arround.. like i said i was wanting to play with some 300+ whp cars + you know over 300 .. whp dosn't all ways tell the whole story.. a frind of mine has a 82 vw rabbit 16vturbo that makes 320 to the wheels.. he drags me all over the express way.. its not always about the whp... its more about the power to weight ratio, the gear, and the driver.

    You evidently don't know who we are. Lank and I are street dyno professionals, we are well aware of the myriad of factors that determine the performance capabilities of various vehicles.

    Thanks man

    Lank is forecasted to be exceptionally busy in the coming days, as he is taking part in street dyno test with vehicles from around the world. He's in great demand these days but I'll see what I can do to work you into his increasingly busy schedule.

    Now, we ask that your vehicle is mechanically sound and operating at 100% on the day of the race. We don't want to take the long, arduous drive out to the test spot only to have a no-go situation due to a mechanical fault with your vehicle. We are well aware that vehicles such as yours are considerably more prone to such failures as a result of continued, albiet not reccomended, operation dangerously close to the edge of the safe performance envelope.

    Brad's vehicle was designed to operate reliably at his power levels, however, that is not the case with many of his opponents. To date, 6 of the vehicles that Brad has raced, have suffered catastophic mechanical and/or structural failures while conducting these performance tests - we hope yours will fair more favorably.
