Donnie beat me to it. hahah

What do we have to call him a non driving ass hat as well

I should be able to get pretty close to what Vic ran. I'm not terrible by any means. I can't wait to get my work schedule changed so I can go out to 190 and hurt some feelings.

Holy fuck you guys are dense. Did anyone see the fucken video I posted? That is Vic's old car. It was built by him, and he also built Zeek's car. They have the same cams, same motor mods, made almost the same power... they are also both fucken 08s!

The difference is Vic had a few hundred lbs out of his, and it was a 1lt which is another 100 lbs or so less. If Zeek had Vic do the same weight mods, the car will run about the same. If one person clones another car and its mods, they will run the about the same. This isnt rival shops from different cities with different weather etc etc... Zeek wont run a mid 10 at 132 with his street tires at full weight, but it will still be gd fast. Id guess a 127 to 128 as it sits... with him driving

I'm dense?

Clearly you have missed all of the chit chats I have had with Steve over this exact subject. I have the exact same view point as you do. If two cars are built with the exact same mods, yes, they should be fairly close, and it will depend on the drive.

Steve himself has stated MANY, MANY time that not all cars are the same. So don't come around giving that bullshit you just spewed when what I stated is the exact shit that is preached here time and time again like a broken record.

Even Donnie's quote says the complete opposite of what you are saying. So if you are going to call me dense, might as well throw the same density his direction.

It doesn't matter what the car can do, if you drive like shit you still lose and will still be told your car is slow. The car is only as fast as you so if you suck so does your car.

I'll race anyone from 50-51mph. Just give me the leave. I'm ready to start breaking hearts on 183.

Please, everyone knows its not possible to reach those speeds on 183 due to all the illegals driving 45 in the fast lane. Lol

It was a blanket statement... if the shoe fits...

Did you and Steve have the same person do the exact same mods to your car? If not, its not the same as what Im saying... zeek's car is a clone of Vic's silver bullet, the only difference being weight at this point. afaik you and Steve have different mods and different tunes, just similar power. The other difference is Steve can drive great, and he says you cant... Vic is one of the best driver's in dfw I know of, but zeek is no slouch. ive personally raced him 5 times, and he can shift great. You and Steve were also talking about qtr mile racing, there is less involved from a roll... Zeek may not have as good as a launch technique as Vic persay, but Zeek can row the damn gears which is what matters from a roll.
