DAN i can definitly see u gettin 140 with what u plan on doin. and if u drop a few pounds out of the car who knows it all depends on how agressive u get with the race gas tune fuel/timing/boost and how long u want ur new 2.3 to last

I think lots of the group like a good race. Just not anywhere near where we hold our meets.

The traffic around that area is restrictive and there are no good "spots"
Not to mention that the Pittsburgh & immediate vicinity is an absolute police state with no less then 12 seperate police departments on the prowel.

That is true to a point . yes we cant race near the waterfront but i have done plenty of racing less than 10 minutes away, i am sure there are a few people on here that can attest to that, cause they have first hand eyewitnessed me and others racing on this particular piece of earth. u find the racers of the group and i will race!! long as i dont have the kids

Maybe you can barrow Jeremy's Recaro baby seat and bring the kids.

As for some safe local spots. I'm interested.
