RE: Why should I chip the Evil One
Ok.. after reading the smack talk... I DO want some of this heat!
mschultz... until you physically post a time slip(yours, not one you paid for), you are just another bench racer.
Take it to the strip, nail a good reaction time(half the race right there), and run at least 2 back to back quarter mile times within a tenth of a second, and make them faster than the one's others can post, and then you can claim "bragging rights".
If you HAVE time slips that can show numbers better than a stock Gen 1, then I suggest you post them. If you can show ALL OF US that your LSC can indeed outrun a stock GEN 1, then I will give you props. The LSC came with an extra 10hp, but it also has less agressive ECU programming, so the engine cant really show off the extra 10hp over a stock Gen 1, unless you get a chip/dyno-tune, waking up that extra 10hp. Other than that.... Gen 1 baby!!!
If you have NEVER run your car down the track... than you really have no "proof" your car is faster than a 1978 VW RABBIT, now do you?
If you have the numbers to back up the talk, present them.....thats all I am asking.
Now these arent the quickest times you will see, but for a bone stock Mark VIII at the strip on a November night(poor traction-60ft's arent so hot). At least I have SOME proof of actually racing someone... and the one with the red smiley face.. that was against a car dialed in at 14.06.. and I beat him off the line, so I won, and lifted at the end to prevent a break out... I may not be quicker than he was, but my win light came on...THAT is all that counts!

I may not be the quickest Mark VIII, but I sure as hell was THAT night(only Mark VIII there). If you want to talk smack, you need to actually SHOW UP to the challenge. Otherwise... its all talk!
Now... you can walk away.
