went out to mexico last nigh and my buddy was out there with his c5 z06 that he just recently put a vortech ysi on and he put down 816hp to the wheels on a dyno jet . on the way home we were cruising at around 60 and and he puched it and so i layed into it a lil bit (60-70%throttle) needless to say he only got ahead of my by a hood or so we only got to 100-110 mph wasnt a huge pull or anything but i was surprised the truck held with him specially since i wasnt wot. i cant wait to get my new pumps in and get my truck tuned i think its going to be a monster.

Cool man! Are you running the truck at the test and tune or midnight mayhem?

Yea midnight mayhem brings a lot of fart cans and young kids to the track. And they typically don't prep the track unless they have a showcase class that night. The test 'n tune is more expensive ($50 vs $15 at midnight mayhem) but you should get a better track and faster cars. I can't wait to see what your truck runs here in Vegas. It will give me a good goal for my truck

Are the rules the same as far as safety equipment and what not or will they let you run faster with out a cage at midnight?
