Anybody see any Corvettes in the Shadows??
 
On Sept. 16th, some of my "Cobra" associates are going to Byron Dragway & participate in the "test & tune" runs. We'll be there early & among the first to run @ 10:00 AM. The Fox Valley Corvette Club, who wimped out in May, are rumored to show up & the really daring among them might perchance line up opposite one or two of our cars. Most likely, they'll show up to watch again. I think they're skeeered of snakes.
Seriously, it's a great time to see how your car runs, they are pretty informal at Byron & you can run 1/4 miles on a straight, level course with no driveways or cops. Great fun.

I guess if I was a Corvette driver, I'd pray for rain

The smell of race fuel and burned rubber...........
 
:eek: Yeah must be that time of year again.

Yes it is. Have Marty torque your nuts this time. Although you could beat a Vette on three wheels I bet

Who loves ya baby?

If a C7 Z06 shows up, you had better hope that someone in the Cobra group know how to conduct a rain dance.

mdmull 08-24-2006 05:57 AM

I'm sure that there are faster vettes out there, we just have never seen them run. Heck some of our guys only run in the low twelves. Oops did I scare the chebbies away again?

Badman 08-24-2006 07:41 AM

Mike,

Low twelves??? John S's EM cobra with a Buick V6 turbo engine ran a 11.40 @ 118!! Say goodnight Corvettes and exit stage right.

snake oil 08-24-2006 10:23 AM

Yep Lumpee discovered my secret that haircut makes me more aerodynamic!

mdmull 08-24-2006 01:18 PM

Frank, they're skeered enough. Dont let them know there are actual fast cars coming, even the possibility of rain will keep them away now. Maybe Fred will represent GM

Looks like it is time to stir the pot again. :LOL:

mdmull 08-25-2006 07:03 PM

Apparently there isn't a pot to stir. The Corvette guys are waiting for their Izods to come back from the laundry, or their cars to come back from the detailer. The Cobra guys are still patching up their cars from the past few months. We'll have to lie to get a lane from Byron at this point.

Hmmm.... corvettes
 
I have a guy that works with me that has an 80's vette.
I'm trying to get him to go so far he's biting. let's see if Ican reel'm in....:rolleyes:
maybe if I promise to bring the 69 mach one... maybe I can convince him to show.
Those two cars should be pretty even.

I see a Corvette in the shadows every time I go into my garage. What I'd really like to see is the shadow of a brand new Cobra laying across it! :)

mdmull 08-26-2006 11:47 AM
