Talking Great night at US41 in IND. last night!

Not only did I run my personal best of 12.84 @ 105.8mph (with a crappy 60 ft time), but every L that could come was there.

Nice to finally meet more L owners!

We'll have to do this again sometime, and try to get even more to show up.

Jason

Hey Jeff:

I didnt realize that the 13.01 you ran last night was your best.

Good job.

If i'm not mistaken you ran a few 13.0's last night.

Better traction and you definately would have been in the 12's!!

There's always next weekend

Jason

It was cool to meet some fellow L owners. Even though the track wasn't the greatest, I was able to run a 13.7 @ 99.98 bone stock. My friend ran anywhere from 13.4 - 16.4 in his BB Roadrunner due to traction. We definately need to do this again. There are about five 01 L's at my work. I'll put the word out when there is a date in mind.

I saw in your profile your an autoworker

Do you work at the Chicago Assembley Plant?

Just curious because I work at the Stamping Plant in the Heights.

---Give that truck some time to fully break in and it'll be a mid 13 second truck!

We will definately have to do this again.

Try to get all those L's to the track!!!

My truck is just slow and I am pissed. Went back down tonight (Sat) and the runs felt extremely weak and the shifting was "stock-like". I need to figure out what's going on and soon. I reseated and taped the chip before I went back tonight to.

Yeah, I work at the assembly plant in Hegewisch.

A lot of people have been trading off their Mustangs and Harley trucks for L's at work.

Ever go to Miami Subs in Highland? That seems to be the place now-a-days. They had a HUGE show tonight.(Sat)

Anywhere to cruise/hangout down your way? I know there is a cruise in DeMontte<sp> next Sat.

Going to get a few more miles on the L then run it again.

I was over there tonight, but I must have missed you

Did you see my buddies black all stock '93 Cobra with only 500 original miles!! He won the stock class tonight!

There's no where to cruise around here. I go to Miami Sub or to Blue Top. Thats about it.

I'm surprised I've never seen you at Miami/Blue Top. I seem to be the only L out and about. I'll look for you in the future. Saw the Cobra. It was SWEET.

Lets makes plans to have a lightning night out there. Not this weekend either though. I got plans I have to stick too.

But the following weekend I could make it out there. I have to show up my buddies camaro and break into the 11's finally. I can't take the crap anymore.
