David & Ira
Better yet I will call you both at 4:00am your time
nice wake up call with 9.50et dial tone. I am glad you both care about the "KING" yes you both sound like my mother. Its the love I get from you people that keeps me pushing the performance berrior of the 3.8V6 Super Coupe
Remember he who follows us into the 9's is only a tourist following in our own footsteps as we where the first to 9's in a history making run. This is for my two challengers looking in "Got Ya"
Hey, I'm up at 4:00am on Sunday's anyway so I don't care. I would hate to be you though if you wake up The Boss(tm)

Seriously for a moment though Jim, I don't know if you get this or not, but there are some people here who are really serious about our cars and would really like to see you accomplish this. How great would that be for all of us SC lovers? Especially those guys who are busting a gut right now trying to find and make new ways for us to be better.
And if for some reason if it doesn't happen this weekend, there's no shame in that. You admit it, you learn from it and move on to the week after that. No shame considering all of the many things that can go wrong on any given Saturday and we all understand that. I don't think anyone here would give you grief about that because lord knows we have all had days with our cars like that.
BUT, if you do it, and remember, this from people who hope you do, and you do come back here without anything we can sink our teeth into, don't bother coming back. Take this the right way my friend, but if you plan on bragging about being the best then you have an obligation to show us. Or if not us, somebody else then because otherwise it's just noise. And I don't think any one here gives a rats arse about that; I don't think we would take that from anyone. He$$, I had almost 500rwhp and ran 26 seconds! But if I claimed a low 11 second run I am sure people would have believed it based solely on the numbers; for about 5 minutes before asking to see the video and how I did it! Well, okay, maybe not those who have seen me drive it
but many others.
If you don't plan on bragging about it that's fine too, because we don't have to hear it and you don't have to listen to it from us. He$$, keep it a secret and make us read about it in a magazine for all I car, but don't come home telling us about your big night on the town when no one else saw it happen. Boy can I tell you plenty of stories.... well, you get my dift.
Sorry if this pi$$es you off. No, actually I'm not. It's just the way I feel about it. In fact I'm hearing so much crap here that I'm starting to lose interest in this whole 9 second thing. I'm tired of trying to sort through what's real and what isn't, and I'm beginning to think we may never see a car in the 9's unless the two top cars we currently know about do it.
Hey, maybe there is even another car out there ready to do it that we don't know about because he isn't hanging out here telling us about it. Now wouldn't that be too cool. Anyone heard from Coy lately.....??
