Out here in Cali you better learn to watch all around because you never know when some idiot is going to run into you.

There comes a time in your life when the sudden realization "hits" you.....

I can't see the videos out here, but... I think this is universal...

Wow I have been gone all day and just caught up on the thread...

Do you guys know you have not changed the subject in like the last day....roflmao

But you have done one whale of a job breaking down every detail of the wreck almost better than the highway patrol that prob investigated the scene.

Ok I too can resist.

Normal Vette club members average age is 70 so the guy in the black Vette probably never saw or heard the White Vette coming. We should be amazed that the cars behind did not wreck into them. Only young guy in the group was the one filming the whole thing.

Hmmmmm. strange but I do feel better.

the white one was in his blind spot when he lost it, so he wouldn't've been able to really see which way he was sliding

OK so now that PQ's car is all tuned up and ready to go..

Let review...

PQ started this thread to challenge me... Gauntlet thrown.

I accept challenge and propose the rule, "run what ya brung"

PQ agrees... okok so I don't think he really understood at that time how much the 22's would hurt him but... he agreed none the less.

So PQ then introduces a spending limit rule of $500 between now and the fest... I accept this rule under protest as he had not yet paid for the dyno tune which would clearly be considered a performance mod.. And I even further concede that if he has a fuel pressure problem he can buy and install a BAP outside of the $500 limit....

Shortly after PQ's car is dyno tuned and ready to rock.... or is it?

Now the debate of drag radials is in full swing. So I concede once again to my good buddy, that he has no spending limit and can buy whatever he wants. However the "race it how you drove it" rule is still in play.....

Somehow..... not really sure.. I became the big bad bully in spite of all my concessions....

So here is my final act of kindness.....

If anyone would like to loan PQ Dr's for our race then he is free to use them.

I'll still run on my stock pirellis

I only have one condition... This is a one race event. No two out of three.

Randy can test and tune as much as he wants but it's a one run race with the tree, no arm drop crap...

Fair?

LOL...I personally don't think there should be any rules of any kind.

Like Robert Duvall said, "Rubbin' is racin' son".

Ok. So you want to get out of the bully tag.

That's fine. After all, my auto is intimidating enough.

But if I get to use DRs, then you do too.

We should keep this thing even.

It's about the cars, with secondary attention to the drivers.

I decline. For now.

I'm kicking your ass on my 22s.

I just need a little more time.

If we both drive on DRs, then fine.
