Don't want to use up the suggestions thread.
But old ed wright just claimed my POS car could never run 12.75 without a turbo. Does someone want to pull his foot out of his mouth? Or does anyone else doubt it?

I think you mistook me for someone that cares how fast that thing runs.

I assure you that Ed is far from an idiot and has tuned more LTx/LSX cars of all varieties from stock to mad scientist than most people have ever seen. Hell he could probably make your heap run even faster

art, you really can't fault anyone for not knowing the ins and outs of your specific class. It appears that only two of you have read it in detail

People commenting that I couldn't make anything go fast without a speed screw (turbo). When making such comments they failed to realize We qualified number 1 with the Hemi car at a few different tracks. And I would think more than a few people have opened the rule book up to look at my combo. It has qualified number one at a few nhra events.

OK, maybe you shouldn't blame them for not knowing the in's and outs of Art's specific class, but that is even more reason for them to put a sock in it. The comments people such as Ed has been making are dumb. I know personally how hard Art has had to work to get his combo to run, both the turbo Dodge (which I owned) and his current non-turbo (that's right, NO TURBO) Dodge. It took Art several years to sort out the Neon SS car and he has every right to be proud of his accomplishments with that car. If it were so damn easy to make that combo run there would be as many of them out there as there are LT/LS1 Camaros. Art has made EVERY Mopar car he has raced fast! From the 4 banger to the mighty HEMI. How many racers out there can say that? Some people need to have a little more respect for people such as Art who think out of the box and just love to be different! Jim
