    Lol nitrous is good cheap power and only there when needed..... No need for fabrication,custom piping ,exhaust wrap etc. Good for the occasional racer

    Actually, most of the grudge racers like to run nitrous. They are pretty consistent. It's all in how you set it up. Too many people just try to slap in a store bought kit.

    Lol well like i said ive only lost twice in the GTO and that was barely against a nitrous monte carlo and a Grand national and thats only because i got out of the throttle due to the car getting squirreley.

    Like i said as much as ppl talk shit about me, i have beaten some of the best out there.

    Let's see....

    1) Mach 1 (he wrecked it) - didn't he beat someone in the rain?
    2) Spaceship_1 (aka RSX - sold cause it was too slow, although he claimed to hit higher top speeds in it than physcially possible with its gearing) - got beat by a girl in a stock Civic, and that was his best showing....
    3) Another Mustang (wrecked) - lost all of his races
    4) 10 Sec GTO - fastest pass for him was 12's and all he beat was a truck. Plus, didn't he need slicks and spray to do that?

    You asked a stock block automatic GTO to be handicapped, so that you could have a chance. That says just about everything people will ever need to know.

    If you go to the hang out spot in macon there are no 12 sec or better cars out there, there might be one that passes. thru but dont stay cuz there is no competition. When i had my GTO and i hung out i could not get a race to save my life. They heard the cam and was instantly scared.

    I never raced david because the motor blew a piston ring, and i didnt want to rebuild because i just fixed the irs and didnt wanna put no more money it so i said fuck it.

    Man when i was out on the scene in macon i was one of the few fastest street racers in Macon, that might not be sayin much to you ATLiens but i felt good knowing that my name was all over town ppl callin me that i didnt know wanting to run for money and( i callem old heads) so really the money was comin to me i didnt have to go find it. Your right H22jones the kids on zeb arent on the level that i was on more talk than action and alot of 15 to 16 sec cars

    I've told you plenty of times - I know some really fast guys in the Macon area that will get down on the street. Folks that don't just drive around, they go to a specific place, put the money down, and get to it. You are not anywhere close to them, as no one on this forum runs anywhere close to any of them.

    Well I tried to make a pass on street tires at the the track and I dominated my clutch. I coasted to a 14.6 at 110. Lol. So I put a new comp stage 4 w heavy duty pp in. Gonna get some miles on it and try again on my 24.5 m&h racemasters.

    your going to need more than a stage 4. I had a CC stage 5 with upgraded pp in my old setup with 400whp. A few launches on 24.5s are gonna hurt it

    Yes sir . Its not the hp you making man its the 24.5 lol. You got to launch them at high rpms not to boog . launching at 7,000-8,000 (im guessin) with no spin at all is going to put a hurt on it Try running 20 psi in them . Then work your way down till they barely spin that will help out your clutch alot. Dont try launching any lower thinking it will be better on them because if they hook and dont spin a little its murder on that clutch . Good luck man.

    Yeah, that's the plan. It'll be my first time on slicks so ill definitely take you're advice. Launch is at 68 and its building 12psi off of the launch control.
