    Exactly. But this dumb shit just makes crap up and posts whatever. Just like earlier when he kept crying about having to run to 160mph against Desi, when he was never asked to go above 140.

    As far as Commerce goes, it depends on what time and day you go. I've gotten my best pass of my life at Commerce. I did a [email protected] at Commerce, and I've never gotten below a 11.6x at SDR.

    Of course, one night at Commerce it got so slick I ran a [email protected] that sorta thing has never happened at SDR.


    Now, Vteckidd....you just admitted your 14.1 was before you did the new valve train. I understand how you don't want to just throw numbers out as a guess as to what it "should" run, and that's cool and all. I actually don't have a problem with you not wanting to do that.....but you sit here and claim that you only have a 14 second car. So after making a change to your car that added horsepower as well as more revving for the motor, you don't think you'd be AT LEAST a tenth of a second or more?? You don't want to speculate that after modding your car it's any faster, but you WILL speculate that it's exactly as fast as it was before the mods??

    In case you missed it
    I really dont know what it SHOULD run, because ive never really pushed it to the limits. When it ran 14.1 i didnt have the cams,valvetrain, etc. Now i only gained 5-6whp, but i also gained a lot more RPM. tSo in theory it should be faster but ive never gone back to the track to find out.
    Yes i will concede its faster now, but i will have to go to the track to find out. Case in point, emminodagreat ran 14.1 with 260whp, he makes 310whp now an couldnt run faster than 14.3 at ISD.

    More power doesnt =faster, and i only made 6whp more than before. i went from 196whp to 202whp. Every other part of the graph was pretty much identical in power. Instead of revving to 8200 i can rev to 9000 if i wish thats all the valvetrain did for me. Its yet to be see if i would be faster with more rpms because i dont know if im faster by staying in gear and not shifting, or if i would benefit from shifting like i was before.

    Im running collins tomorrow night, that will put the issue to rest IMO. He makes 400whp IIRC or upper 300s. He should put the hurt on me. He should be a good 3-5 cars ahead of me IMO. Guess we will find out
