Re: Ernie King & Zturd beware

Actually guys, my first 9 sec pass and many of my subsequent passes have been on a Pro Tree. At KCIR they make me run with the Pro Stock and Outlaw cars so the Pro tree is used very frequently. Don't mind it at all...probably have had more practice on that in the last couple of years than the regular stage.

Ernie, you can use whatever shot you want. I'm up for it brutha!

Mike

Re: Ernie King & Zturd beware

But Mike, you have to take your belt off...I'm no match for you even on the Pro Tree which I'm very good at.. Pitts trying to ge me trouble

200 shot would blow mine up big time, being it's only a stock bottom end 346... but I might go 100..

I'm sure everyone is just playing, but for the record, my engine is setup for the blower (8.5 CR) and tuning and quite frankly, if the blower belt was removed, a stock Z06 would probably beat me. My torque would be so low that bicycles would go zooming by as I drove

Ernie, I understand your liking of the Pro tree. Not sure why but I tend to have better launches that way myself.

Re: Ernie King & Zturd beware

Mike, I like the Pro Tree better because like you I can get a better R/T on it..We ran with the NSCA for 2 years and that's what we ran.. .500 my best on it was .501 But now I'm on a A4 tranny who knows what it will do

Yep I know it's all in fun, but we still could run even with out the 100 shot.. I just like to run anyway.. Like Pitt, I would love just to see your car run..

Ernie

And Pitt, even with that Built Motor, your going Down

I realize this was 2 years ago and 185 rwhp less than now, but it still got down the track at BG in fair condition. Not one of my best runs, but the only one anyone has managed to vid lately.

Re: Ernie King & Zturd beware

Pitt, That was just a warmup run, see how the track was hooking.. I have some better ones but you won't see them until your coming off the line looking ahead at my tail lights.

Now those are some holeshots guys,,,,giving me ALOT of incentive to get with the program Saturday at Speedworld. I hope to be able to post up some vids like that Saturday night. Keep an eye on the Winterfest threads the next few nights,,,everybody is bringing their laptops so there are sure to be lots of pics of the fun and games. Thursday is dyno day, friday is road racing day and sat is the drags,,,,,,,,,,,,,with lots of partying in the interim.
BTW Ernie, nice car,,,love the Nassau blue!
