Finally. See page 80. Call911 took the pic for me. Too bad it's outdated info. Looks like I'll have to do another submission.

My Vette. Funny part is that Call911 took the pic and he's been trying to get his Z28 in for a LONG time.

Oh, he's submitting a package for a full feature. He and I sat down last night and did a comprehensive list of everything that's in his car. With the pictures he's got, shouldn't be an issue.

I swear I'm always the last one to get my magazines... I'm sure I have January though somewhere so I'll look when I get back to the apartment tonight. If I do I'll take some pics for everyone without the mag

Serriously? January 08 in October? Are we kidding? I realize it's not a monthly magazine but god. If thats the case I probably will get mine in a few weeks when I'm back at school and it'll go to my dads house which means I'll get it at thanksgiving. :doh:

You can kind of see my Formula in the cars shiney reflection! This really pissed me off! Mostly just because I have really wanted to get my car (The Z in my sig) into GMHTP for a long time. Granted I have yet to have ever submitted anything on account of me slowly gathering time slips, photo's, dyno sheets ect.

This made me put things into overdrive though, and now I am ready to submit a full packet of my car soon.

I'm not mad at Fastbird though. Just mad at myself! :pinch:

Congrats Sean. It's definatly cool to see a buddies car in there. Especially via from a picture I took.

I owe it to you man. I'd have NEVER gotten that shot if you hadn't come down.

FYI, all those pics I printed went out via priority today.

Thanks man. I just got done emailing the editor for confirmation on a couple things today.

There's a free dyno day on Saturday in Decator (home of LPE). I'll be taking the Z (and the Formy) to see if the colder lower altitude will put out some larger numbers.

The only thing that sucks is that I can't find any old track slips. I have went 11.3 @ 129 with DR's, and 11.2 @ 128 with slicks at Atco, but since I can't find the time slips the best I have is an 11.3 @ 127 at Muncie when it was 100 degrees and we had a 25 MPH headwind.
