Good pass g-man:
DA = -135.4
Adjusted for weather and altitude to 500':
1/4 ET--13.51
1/4 TV--104.386
0-60--5.08
I hope the 335 guy shows. Where did they all go so suddenly?

I got a response from a Socal guy with a 335. If he confirms that he wants to go then I'll definitely set something up for this coming weekend. The weekend past was a wash. No 545/550s were available. The 335 would surely inject new enthusiasm to the runs.

Hey Vega you need to get one of the 545/550 step guys to run him from a dead stop.The 335 will have an advantage from a roll.The turbo's will be spooled up and he will be in his best power band from a roll.
On a side note, I spoke with hollywoodtrash last night and he edged out a Cadillac CTS-V. We looked up the specs on the car: 3500 lbs curb weight, 400 hp/395 ft-lb torque. Zero to 60 in 5.0 flat. Based on these numbers the CTS-V should've beaten hollywoodtrash's 550. I chalked it up to a driver's race which hollywood was the better driver. Hollywoodtrash, if you're reading this will you already post the run?

Point taken. Will be sure that we will be launching and not rolling.
