had a sticker on the back glass...."FUKAHEMI" pretty badass!
he was about to run an 11.4 sec Duramax 4x4 but the track got oiled down. we got tired of waiting so we went home. he was gonna spray against the diesel so shoulda been a fun race to watch.

fayetteville doesnt hook very good from what ive seen. guess they dont prep the track much for sunday T&T. my car is pretty dependant on track prep though, 3700 lbs on a 10.5" DOT tire. my 60 foots are off atleast 1/2 a tenth from what the car normally runs at Darlington or Rockingham. ive never been to one of the freaky friday events they have, heard its fun though.

I have the same setup you do but with an x-pipe and the delta flow flowmasters. They actually get quieter from 3K up, kinda weird. By the way, i'm from Greenville SC.

Cool finally, someone from the Upstate, do you ever go to Greer? The sound is growing on me, it sounds really good sometimes, but at around 2k it sounds like it echos. Kinda reminds me of a old Ford pickup with glasspacks on it. I don't know what I am going to do? I was planning on going to the track tonight, and see if I picked up any time, but I think the track will be flooded. I dont know!! Thanks for the input.

When you took off the converters did u have to put any kinda 02 sensors or anything on it for it to run better. My local shop in town said there where to many sensors on my truck to remove the convertors off of it.

you can remove the rear 02's all they do is return a misc voltage to show the front ones are working. You can remove them and the cats it will set an se light and you need to change the tune. Where you at in NC I can do 02 and 05 models, I know someone who can do 04's

Yeah i go to greer about once a month, that's actually the only track i ran at for awhile, then started going to ware shoals and i run at it more now. Seem to hook a lil' better at WS. But yeah my truck sounds like that too around 2K. I like it though, let's me know when to shift, it seems like it wants to start echoing at about the same time my shift light comes on.
