So much for keeping it stock. I just couldn't help myself.

Mike, I was thinking back and you have a pretty darn nice setup going. Why not some race rubber? Altho those new tires are pretty darn close to race rubber

Thanks for the input Jeremy, honestly I just don't feel like I'm ready for race slicks yet. I really enjoy the whole street car aspect of it also, plus I want that damn cup!!...lol I will probably take your advice and go with 255's now just have to pick between the Z1 and NT-05.

You paid because you don't have the knowledge, experience, understanding, etc to do it yourself nor have spent the countless hours and seat time to learn, experience, and understand what your doing and/or maybe dont want to spend the time, etc to learn, understand......so you pay for the services of others that do and have spent the time.

btw almost 11's? (what world does this count in?)

nice back pedal.....but at this point I don't think you can pull anything past any of us on this thread, we all have heard and experienced the bs that is eric.

I don't see why not. Your TBE and more refined tune should put you solidly out in front but hey, its always fun to see how my car stacks up.

I know this is not horseshoes or hand grenades but.....


I ran a 12.1 @ 117
Tony ran a 12.3 @ 113

Mods were at a minimum also. TBE,MBC,TUNE no FMIC,CAMS etc etc.

Same for the other car. Other car was never ran.


Actually i let about 7 people borrow my tune. did some data logging, everything was ideal and everyone was happy.

I don't even have all the parts in hand yet. (i am going to be relying on others to get me their stock parts) Motor is getting swapped, fuel system needs pulled, clutch, exhaust, fmic, aem... Everything is going going gone.

I only stop by every couple months this is my last post till then, probably back maybe in june/july.

I have learned my lesson, and will no longer put "exact" dates on things.

peace
