^^^Look who it is the Guinea and the pig...lol! No "jayson" on this one bud..all me...just havent posted it on dragtimes as I have lost interest in posting anytimes.
Ohh yeah I forgot to mention at a point in time I used panty hoses as airfilters, there you have it..lol! What can i say I am innovative...you guys crack me up hard though, get a new line......
I will post the vid up shortly of the 11.5 run at 120.9 looks like I nearly trapped higher than your tuned 65 tom....

I trapped 120.9 stock this past wednesday....So you trap 1 MPH more modded...Hmmm, fishy, fishy...I will send you a nice little vid for your proof. I also have my stock boxes back...I am fabricating my intake system out of CF. promise you no panty hoses involved.

Nothing fishy about it...with your "intercooler mod" you dynoed 560+ to the wheels... my car has never dynoed more than 522rwhp in any state of "tune". You should be putting 2-3mph on me...especially with the DA being better last Wednesday up north there and you car with the "Italian tune". I hope we both break 125+ traps!

You have never heard of an "Italian tune" it is when you drop the car down two gears on the highway to get the carbon build up off the valves.... it was a joke....geez Jody....you need to lighten up before you head pops off...
