They probably had a L99. I know mine is connected to the plastic line coming from the rear of the drivers side valve cover and suction is taken from the TB.

There was someone complaining about the folks who made the finals for Camarocross not being posted until 1:37pm too. Hell, with the rain in the morning, Saturday, they got off to a late start.

I swear, you can't please everyone.

The drag racers though it should be straightforward, pun intended, and just use the NHRA rules, right? Everyone knows them, follows them everywhere else, why not at C5fest? Otherwise at the speeds they see someone is going to get hurt.

Hell, at CC someone wrecked their ZL1 because they over drove their ability and learned an expensive lesson. I heard there was 79 miles on that car. There is not a facepalm big enough for that one. 79 miles is not enough time to learn a cars capabilities let alone break it in.

Very true. I gave this car months and a couple thousand miles before I started doing 180s and slides and whatnot. It just takes a long time to where you KNOW what the car is going to do under most all circumstances.

First full N2O pull.....622rwhp. That was with 7° of timing pulled. Gonna add 2 and 3 more degrees and she where she likes it. Its getting closer!
