Question: 1 and 1? Really? Setting the record with at stock snail vs. winning with a gt35r set up at the evo shootout doesn't seem to be something to use as proof of your abilities.
Oh I will have the AMS turbo on the car, im done with the stocker. I will have some major issues sorted out well before the shootout, such as totally running out of fuel with just one Walbro 255. More than likely I will still be on radials though, I really don't want to switch to small brakes. I really don't give a rats *** what turbo Al runs, just as long as he runs with us in EVO heads up.

Hey ISP, nice car! I guess you will be running Quick 16 at the shootout since you run nitrous. Al just doesn't want to be a man and run with the fastest EVO's in the country. Hey if he goes Quick 16 class he is no longer concidered "the fastest street driven EVO", it's towed in on a trailer with slicks, no exhaust and nitrous. Im just looking for a fun competitive feild for the EVO class, I know alot of guys want to see this race.

You can't discredit him for wanted to go for the record, that's what we all are trying for. By the way we aren't running nitrous.

Funny Mr. Brown - now I am "not a man. . . " ha ha ! I guess I am a big sissy - but a faster sissy than you for now.

Remember - I am da man to beat if you want to be the quickest or fastest without NOS - the rest is just small talk, conjecture and hot air.

Even though setting the record would be awesome, you should go with option a. You have plenty of time to set records in the future.
