I thought for a second it might have been me, but I had my car in the shop again... best thing is to post a picture of the car, or ask people to post / pm you pictures to verify...
How many of you would have been driving on the 210 headed East going through pasadena on that day at that time? I only saw one red FD lol. Hahaha

Yeah that would have been me. I am very impressed with your car man, those are on my list of cars to own. I love spinning dorritos of doom.

Sounds like your car is running well Armen. A headers/cammed LS1 is a pretty quick setup, and your basically bolt on car seems to have given it a good run.

Hey Gene! Looks like you have skilfully managed to avoid damaging that front lip. Car looks great BTW.

^^ Holy fatman, batman. Your buddy is huge, no offense... but that will really f' you up as far as quickness goes. If I put that much weight in my car with the power it has it would probably feel like a miata. Have any timeslips on your car, 1/4 or 1/8? I know armen's been to the track, I think he ran high 12 sec @ 110 mph range over a year ago at Fontana. Love me the cammed ls motors... I have one myself, waiting to go in my car

Yeah my buddy is larger but he is a cool cat, shoot I am at 240 lbs. then again I am also 6'6" lol. Well at Irwindale I run consistant 7.5 at 92 mph. Although for some reason I seem to be having a misfire, time to check my plugs.

That's pretty damn quick. Cam only? Wow. How much does the car weigh? Ever dyno'd that thing?

Well cam only 3800 stall converter 3:42 gears, built Auto. I had it tuned at a shop out in lake Elsinore called CMS, the guy is probably the best LSx tuner around. On his dyno I put down 377, but his reads about 15 hp low, so he said I am actually in the 390's. I have a set of heads in my room waiting for me to get money so I can get them CnC'd and larger valves. After that with the stock intake manifold I should be around 420 to the tire, give or take 5-10 hp either direction.

Sweet man, motor sounds real healthy. Good info on CMS, I may have to talk to you more about them when I'm ready for a tune. Did you make the pulls with stock exhaust manifolds and exhaust? What are the specs on the cam?
