She said she usually closes her eyes, so that was hard on her. She said at least she didn't have to look at the road. I didn't want to be too hard on the car considering I just broke a driveshaft Saturday at the track. It currently has another stock aluminum driveshaft and the stock 10 bolt. I'll wait until I upgrade to really launch and shift harder.

Nice little clip there. What tires are you using for street? THe couple of times I had mine in boost, all I've managed to do was spin, didn't hook up at all.

315/35/17 Sumitomos. Traction is decent in warm weather. Non existent in cold weather.

These runs were with my 315/35/17 MT ET Street Radials. Awesome tires.

Cool video Tim! I couldn't get the track vid to work, were you able to make a full pass? if so, what did she run?


Mark, hit me up when you get a chance, I was curious where you're at with yours?
We can also get you a deal on some tires

GArrett- I didn't realize your clutch went out, give me a call if you need a hookup on a clutch....


This might also be a good time to point out that Rick posted a sale on these kits today in the sale section:

Nope, I didn't get to make a pass. I only had one shot and the driveshaft let go. The last two times I've been to the track, I've broken something. I'm okay with that, it just means it's making power.

Wow, I like that bad TA. I would love to see what it might do with a new Magnacharger 1900 or 2300 TVS. My buddy was gonna do a Ken Bell on his 2002 CETA till someone said it wasnt a good idea to lower the crossmember. Seems you are having good luck with yours. I still am a turbo guy though, but a good roots style is nice to see once in a while.
