I know those were the numbers, his car wouldn't hook at all, and it was twin turboed intercooled and tons of NOS. The guy that owned the car owns a performance shop wait4meperformancedotcom. He also had a lingenfelter CTS V and some other sweet vehicles SRX caddy and a viper.

12 sec at 187 mph!!!!

even if he did not hook up how did he march down the track to get 187 mph

my family used to be all chevy until my dad bought a Bronco, i never really liked chevy mainly cause they are kinda of arrogant....i would take a Sierra or a CTS

im also not a fan of the vette, i liked the old stingray ones but i don't like the new one cause they always compare it with the Mustang and thats just stupid

My old car could wheelspin over an 1/8th of a mile... and its trap speed was only 132mph despite having an ET of 12.4...


So.... hmm...

his name is jesse ... email him. he'll prolly scan it for you to see. The car sounds like nothing I had ever heard. He said the car wouldn't even begin to hook up till north of 100mph.

Well lads it is like this. I have a good friend who owns an 2008 dodge 1500 and he let me take it for a spin, what a beautiful truck. I had the privalage of driving a couple of 2008 chevys 3/4 tons wtih the 6.0 and you talk about zip. i could not believe the power it had. Of course my one very good friend with the 2008 tundra. All kinds of *****. I was totally impressed with this truck. It had the 5.7... Myself of course I just love my 6.4 diesel and all the lads where totally impressed with my F-350 and the guts it had to. Over all we all like the trucks we own and are impressed with what is out there. As most of you say it comes down to preference and that is all that matters. that is my 2 cents worth

I am pretty sure it is. Go to his website, and email him. If it wasn't true, why would I give you a way to contact him?

i think if fuel prices keep going up u guys wont be arguing about which brand makes more power u will more likely be looking for the one that gets better gas mileage and just leave it at that...just my thought. and does it really matter anyway. all the brands can make as much power as u want, as long as u have the money to do it.

That only compnay I can't stand is Chrysler Corp. I bought an 01 Jeep Wrangler 60th aniversery edition and that thing was the most beautiful thing on the road IMO. That thing turned out to be the biggest POS that I ever owned. Constant problems with it.

About 6 months after I bought it I moved to Kansas City and after taking it the dealership there a few times they told me that they will not honor all the warranty work because I didn't buy it there. So I left the car lot, left the Jeep there, and walked down the street to the Ford dealer. The salesman asked me where my trade in was and he had to walk up there to get it. If I would have got it I probably would have burnt the place down I was that mad. About an hour later I was driving a Ranger off there lot.

I save that kind of loyalty for my friends and family.

Blind brand loyalty is like saying that you like women but the only ones you will date, much less even look at, are large breasted blondes. Well you don't really like women, you just have a fetish. If the only truck you will buy, much less even consider is a Ford, you don't really like trucks. You just have a fetish for Fords. Not like that is going to get you thrown out of here anyway!

Appologies to blondes and fetishists!
