Default My buddy says he can walk on my car.

So my buddy says he can still beat me once my car gets back together.
My car
2004 CTSV
Stage 2.5 PRC heads, torquer v3, monster stage 3 clutch and 18lb flywheel, volant CAI, kooks headers, magna flow cat back.

His car
2008 c6
Intake and straight pipes.

We raced with the mods in my sig but I had stock heads. He pulled on me a fender them it was even. But he is still saying he will take me. Can't wait to get my car done and give it a go.

Saw my buddies 2007 vette with auto trans, stock 2.56 rear gear, cai, ECU tune, stock tires run a 12.55 sec. @ 113 mph in the 1/4 on the weekend !

Be careful. Make sure you run him with a cool engine if you can. Cooler engines make more power.

Good luck!
