Not sure if anyone has told you any of this before , if so I just wanted to remind you about those things Good luck
Good to know. Thanks.

Back them EVOs were at almost every drag event. We talked big and also walked big. Ask flat 4 the *** whooping we put on them twice in one year. Our slowest guy was faster than they're fastest guy.

LOL, let me stop reminiscing. Korea tends to do that to you!
aahhhh good times bro fawk yeah!!

Old school, new school, what is this middle school? rofl, some people like to make more power, some people make less power, we can sit and compare all day, but who knows it could be something else more than just someones driving ability that is holding them back. We all take different routes.

Note I'm not the best driver, but for example my case, I was wondering why my car would unload and bog between shifts, with the help of Eddie, and Tom we found out my NLTS was on. I've never ran with NLTS so that is something different to me and to note was broken. Well now it is something else, but we all bounce back and move on.

I made about 460 on the DJ, roughly 390-400 on the MD. Trap speeds of 118, people with small turbos make more power than me, but ultimately my goal is to go faster, not compare pee pee sizes.

my 2 cents =]
whoa whoa?! what forums have you been in lately?
