Default Whats your short term goal for your car?

Mine is to get my headers and all other bolt-ons put on (they are sitting in my room) getting a stall converter, lower it (have springs in my room), get the windows tinted, and put all my suspension parts on (also in my room). Then hopefully click off a 11.9 stock internal

Very doable as i'm only a few parts away from having everything i need, but now i have to find time to do it!!

Get a 3500 yank stall! Adjustable lca's and torque arm. Get the windows tinted. Get a ultra z hood and get the front and rear bumbers and body kit repainted! Oh yea, and get a bowtie grill for her. That should put me in the low 12's hopefully and make the car look gorgeous.
