Believe it Rob.
Anything was possible at TX Motorplex that day (where/when these stories
originated) especially if the poor run was made in the left lane. It was
REALLY slick on the launch. I raced against my Brothers '95 Z28 LT 1
that day too, he didn't warm the hides and blew out the launch bad. He
lifted 3 times before he got it hooked up.
I had him 2-3 lengths by the 330'.
He ran a 17.39 @ 93mph with a 3.17 60'.
I ran a 14.44 @ 93.02mph with a 2.04 60'.
Later in the day, he learned how to launch and went 14.25 @ 97mph.
We didn't get another chance to race each other, but I went 14.22 @ 93.9
that day, so it would/could have been close.
