Good luck Dan with hitting your 12's for the first time. I'm sure you'll get it. I did look at some wheels for you, but I'm real picky when it comes to wheels. My favorites are the Volk CE28n and Work Emotion.

yeah, my 17.3 includes a 2.7 60'. I wasn't really expecting much from my car. I figured i'd be high 17's. For my first time out, I did better than I thought. With a better launch I might be able to hit 17.2 or 17.1. plus i had a lot of junk in my trunk cause i wasn't expecting to go out there. I prolly had about an extra 80 pounds in my car.

Hey nice job there steel city! Wow seems like that race gas helped alot. I would have never thought that. So you didn't even turn up your boost? that a big differece and your 60ft wasnt that much better then before, well not .5 sec. and 4mph.

thanks jeremy , yeah i didnt touch anything i went out and ran the 12.7 on my first run just to see how she was runnin, i think the gas just gave me a higher threshold and the ecu probably didnt pull any timing or anything, i knew it was fast cause i was able to get into 4th gear so much sooner than all my other runs
