That was a fluke, Brad. If you tried to reproduce it, I guarantee you would not achieve it. Sorry. But when I swapped the B18C1 into the LS I was awe-struck. I loved that motor and jizzed on it everynight.

He bought the car used, so who knows what was done to it. He did run a 14.9, but I wouldn't be surprised if there were a set of cams or something else done unknown.

One timeslip...but a decently driven ITR would beat you, and both cars would beat you on the freeway. I've beaten my share of GSR's too, from a dig.
