Ran two five Os

Good runs man. Your truck does run strong. Dont take offense to ppl sayin you're on borrowed time. We just don't wanna see another one of these trucks parted out. It's quite sad, even though everyone gets parts they need at a great price. If you ran at the track more you'd be killin it for sure.

Like trussman said we want you tobe careful and I do enjoy your video's.
 
So Adrian, on April 14th there is a Test and Tune at Famoso Raceway. I will be making my first test run in my Cadillac, pure stock.....bring your truck and the slicks....and we will have a fun and legal match race.

That's not fair....he'll be on slicks :rock: ok maybe the not fair part will be your superchargered vette motor.

That looks like a call out....:D
 
Please don't take this as an insult but instead as advice. You are gambling and eventually going to lose my friend. If at about the halfway point in your video, the guy in the POS pickup (who made one hell of an alert and wise move) didn't bail into the left shoulder, all the way from the right lane, on the two lane road when you raced the black Mustang you more than likely would have wrecked. If he stayed in that lane you would have had two options to avoid a collision, brake hard and swerve left into a sand ridden shoulder at high speed, or turn under braking into the right lane behind the Mustang, hoping like hell he didn't stand on the brakes as well keeping you from getting behind him.

Either way you more than likely would have lost control. I'm telling you from driving experience. If you don't think I'm right. Goto some wide open area, go 70 mph or so, jam the brakes on, and quick swerve hard left than right or vice versa and see what happens. And that is without the sand, pebbles and other crap.

You can shift that truck like nobody's business, but you gotta take it to the track. I really don't think you realize how lucky you were.

OK, just for the record...it's NOT a vette motor....it's the LSA (556 hp, 1900 blower, non-forged rods and pistons, much milder cam). The ZR1 Corvette has an LS9 (638 hp, 2300 blower, titanium rods, forged pistons, larger cam). He will have a major traction advantage, it will be my first pass in the car, and my first race since shoulder surgery (still a little tender) and my car is a stick shift....which is supposed to be a lot slower than the automatic CTS V's....according to the Cadillac Forums. But...yeah I should win in all fairness.....if I can drive:D. But Adrian has shown that he is not afraid to loose, I would just like to see him make a legal run and really see what that SRT-10 will do in the 1/4 mile. Nice to meet fellow SRT-10 owners, SRT Brad will be there to film, and Arnie will be there for some more friendly competition. Oh Arnie, it's $60.00 for Sunday only, if you try to run on Saturday it's $100 for the weekend.
 
I forgot to mention, I met a new friend with a ZL1 camaro (not the black SS I drove to a 10.74 @ 134.8) and I may get to make a pass in it (the ZL1). The ZL1 owner might bring it to Famoso for a test pass........just for the record , its faster than the black SS I drove..... I went for a ride.....wow! It puts down 706.5 rwhp and 725 ftlbs...and that was before they were installing a methanol kit....he expects another 30-40 rwhp. I will be getting the differential checked in my SRT-10, and if all goes well I might bring that to the Test & Tune as well. But I will bring the CTS V for sure. All of you SoCal guys should try to make this one as it is the LAST Weekend Test and Tune until November. Only Friday nights till then ( and only about twice a month all summer). Remember I will be there on Sunday only. Make your plans....this could be fun.

Im saying u will run a 12.4 forsure if your shoulder lets you shift... Stick is faster IMO but you got to be a badass driver and launch the shit out of it compared to the auto that you just step on.. I dont think I will get a sports car auto
