WHAT VPR :the Premier

hey guys,


I went to vmp last night and drove the (WHAT VPR) lightning for the 1st time since the project build up. I arrived at vmp @ 730 pm. the weather was overcast with t-storms looming. the temp was about 85 degrees with 100% humidity. the 1st pass was a 12.63 @111. that was with no cool down. yeah...i bet yall are like WTF? well...i didnt know what to expect either. well i kept on running one pass after another with no cool down time due to a storm coming in soon. well i made 4 more passes....a string of 12.40 passes and one 12.37 pass. Well, considering the conditions plus the full weight factor...tailgate, hitch, spare, pass seat, 2 lightning wheels plus 2 ton jack, and dont forget my cooler full of beer...lol!....thats not too bad under the conditions. I know superfords is laughing his a$$ off right now but we plan to work the kwirks out this L...for all who are laughing, laugh now cause youll cry later.

Later,


Ralph


BTW: i felt sorry for that poor zo6 i raced...i couldnt even see him in the rear view mirror....thats a d@mn shame...as superfords says: ZO6 this Beeeotch!

sad sad sad...



yes I am laughing my azz off...

for those who don't know, this is the "other" '03 here in my town that was supposedly going to whip my butt at the track.

the kid who blew his motor running a 6lb and no chip last winter.

JDM built block, ported heads, cams, converter, slicks, Kenne Bell!

12.40s bwah hah hah....

in all seriousness, i'm sure they'll get the bugs worked out and the truck should run MUCH faster.

but in the mean time, i'll just sit here and smile!

later,
chris

hahahah 20 grand and all he ran was 12.40 wow. In his defense like you said his truck should be putting out a lot better #'s. WHAT VPR good luck getting your truck where it needs to be. But if you and Chris line up, I've got my money on the Sonic Blue L.

HOLD UP....... wait a minute....

HA HA HA....

I don't know about the premier, maybe first test & tune....
Keep chucking Superfords. Since we're refreshing our memories lets reminisce a little more.....



I know it's hard to admit the truth, but the proof is in the pudding, isn't SuperGay? I mean Superfords.....



It's true 12.4 is slow, but we're just beginning...

If I were you I'd go get a bigger nitrous bottle. Don't want you running out of nitrous at the 1/8th mile and trying to make excuses.....

same old tired azz jokes? get some new material man.

ETs talk, BS walks... and you sir have a lot of walkin' to do.

bring the smack talk to the track and I'll whoop that a$$

no rush though, I don't want to hear any excuses about the truck not being done. so take your time and finish doing whatever it is you need to do before you TRY to race me.

call me when you guys are in remotely the same time zone

how about I give you guys a head start or something to make it fair?
