Yes, Parish your 10 SECOND 5000 POUND TURBO TRUCK isn't at all impressive.

This thread is confusing me.... Does this "Z28" only run 11's? I thought Parish's truck runs high 10's?

i've went 7.55@92 in my Z28 already on drag radials and got kicked out after that run for no helmet. i have no idea what that is in the 1/4 but it's not bad for cutting a 1.6x 60' and being at full street weight...plus about 50 pounds if not more of **** sitting in the rear of the car. don't get me wrong, parish's truck is sweet, and i'm glad someone finally hit 10s with one. but a truck that weighs probably 1500+ more pounds than his and runs 10s on 20" wheels that's the ****.

Lane is a good driver, which accounts for a good bit of that 11.x ET.

I'll run you in the rain.

yeah, you got it right, slow doesn't need to prove that he is faster than all of these "bricks" BUT i need to prove i am faster than him, even though he has never even been to the track.

makes sence to me

well, if you come get your heads any time between now and saturday night you'll probably get your chance since it's raining here again right now.

I will put up money on Parish winning this race. Lets see here:

Slow 11.45 @ 117

Parish 10.91 @ 122

I think that is a lot of ground to make up in your current form Matt. You may want to rethink this challenge. You just might get your *** handed to you.

I think from a dig on the street from 0-120, Parish will kill you. Not being a ***** but, you aint getting a 1.60 60ft on the street and Parish will. A drag race is all about the 60ft. Playing the chase game is hard.
But you know what they say,
"A CHASE IS A RACE!"
