Nope. The only thing missing is the date.

Here is a conversion chart link, a 7.55 works out to "about" 11.85...not bad. I think Parish has only been "encouraged" to run 10.9 as that is all that is needed to be top dog, there is more in it. Look at all of his street racing video's, and you will see what kind of *** it kicks! The track is one thing, but on the street is a whole different story....I think it is gonna be hard for a 10.anything car to keep up with his truck on the street, no matter what kind of tires its runnin'. Launching a car on concrete covered in hot rubber is ENTIRELY different then lauching a car on the street on blacktop with loose dirt on it, so I would think twice before "street" racing Parish with anything that only runs 11's and isn't all wheel drive.

I would hate to own an 11 second camaro and not be able to beat a 4x4 truck. Hopefully you can cash the checks you are writing.

What is wrong slow can't come towards parish gotta be in texas.
man if i were you and supposedly so much faster man meet him some where
but if your gonna make parish drive all the way to you then evidently you don't wanna race so bad. Just make sure parish has his video camera so we can all see you get your *** handed to you.
