Someday I'd like to join in your reindeer games! I figure my wife wants to go to Vegas sometime, so that'll be the perfect chance to run the Silver State.

Congrats on the write-up you two! (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

How come your speedo says about 120 most of the time on the video?

I really enjoyed the article, when I read it, I had no idea it was anyone in here. Very cool.

The speedo is a Granatelli 205 mph speedo. The needle probably IS about where 120 would be on the stock speedo, so I can see where is might look a little misleading. Maybe you should go by the tach which seems to be stuck on 6000 rpm (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/burnout.gif) I was hoping the GPS read out would be visible on vid but no dice (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/mad.gif)

Most racers never really get any recognition for their efforts. After all our cars are usually stripped down, the paint is chipped up from the track etc. and there's always the show & shine car that would photo so much better . Imagine mine and Boyce's surprise to find our cars featured in the newest issue of GMHTP (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) Below is a link to a thread in the NW section of LS1tech where we tend to hang. There's a couple of pics of the articles for anyone that's interested.

Hey Bill, I did not know you were on here. I just joined. I refered to you and Boyce in my first post.

I let my subspcription for that magazine expire. I got tired of the duct taped quartermile wonders. Alot of their tech articles are just flat out misleading, made up, or crap that works in the opposite way of what's claimed. I do like the change they are having for the time being, til' the next issue when they do another write up on a Buick, or some dude named Roscoe that has triple mortgaged his trailer for an engine from Jantzer Performance.

Done

it appears that the editor took a little liberty in writing that article. I finally got to read the full thing last saturday and was pretty suprised when I saw that.
