Didn't see that but did see a mostly stock cobra run a 12.15 last night[8D]I play along with my kids. I'm usally really close unless it's something goofy like a S10 with a battery powered motor instead of an engine. Which by the way ran a 13.1

I want to be one of the guys that guesses on there. I watched it a while back and on everything but an old Chevelle I was really close. I guessed the Chevelle would run about 14.00 and it ran like an 11.80

RE: Pass Time
Well Ill tell you what, I think its a good show, especially compared to all the other crap on TV today. I really would have loved to be on the show, a majority of the people they have on there have no idea how to drive their car even close to it's potential, although the KB cobra guy had like 100 passes on his.
I think the only one that annoyed me was the guy in the fully modded evo leaving off idle, when he could have clearly launched the car like nobodies business

RE: Pass Time
It is entertaining, but it just kills me how basically none of them know how to drive their cars. I watched it last night and only one person I think knew how to drive their car. All of them would toast the launch horribly. A lady last night drove an 07 GT/CS to an amazing 14.9x [:'(]

RE: Pass Time
Sorry to have let ya down on the blown diff...I knew something was going to go soon. I had been saving up for a built rear end and I got a nice built rear sooner rather than later thanks to that show. The track prep was AMAZING that night, but I knew something wasn't right when I came off the line with one wheel spinning, got out of it, then caught traction and decided to go ***** out and punched it knowing it would hook...yeah...it hooked, but it made a nice loud clunk and reved high...not going anywhere. Was so pissed to have lost to an LT1. And in defense of the two teens in stangs, both were track noobies so they really didn't know what to do. The yellow one now has a new motor and the GT actually had a bad clutch cable that would not allow it to feather the clutch out. It was either on or off. It was the hardest clutch pedal I've ever felt and it had no feel to it whatsoever. Anyways, I hope they come back out here again because I'd love to redeem the Mach while feasting on one of the goats from the local GTO club.

I was LMFAO at the 04 Cobra a couple nights ago that only had exhaust and ran a 14.69 and the one from tonight that was an 03 with a 2.2L KB and ran a 15.5, LOL. Other than that the show is pretty nice to watch.
