POLL - How should I run my car in the DSM shootout ?

I can not decide on how to run my car for the DSM shootout

Option A - Run in the Evo Heads up class again and run with the rules there - NO NOS, full exhuast, full interior - should run a high 9.90 - 10.10 time racing against other evos like the AMS evo, Curt Brown, Buschur's evos, Pruven, ect etc. I would be conpetative to reach the finals agains like the past two years. It seems there will be quite a few low low 10 second evos there.

Option B - leave the NOS on, run without an exhuast and run the Quick 16 class where I will surely loose against cars like the Buschur Conquest and Shepherd Talon - but in which I may have a chance to break the record for the quickest evo 8 time or at least better my own personal best.

What do you guys think ?

I say go for Option B all the way. Your car is more than capable of breaking the record so you might as well shoot for it. Goodluck.

Seriously, you already know what your capable of in option A. How many more awards do you need?

Go for option B and push yourself to the next level. Don't you want to be the fastest Evo period.....
