No cage needed, just be prepared to get the boot every where you go.

You do. I believe the rule was/is 11.59 and a cage is needed (as well as other racing attire). Sometimes you just get lucky and the officials tend to be a little more leniant on some test and tune days, then sometimes not.

Just added a roll bar this week, so no longer a sleeper with the windows down. Windows up no one can tell.

So far I have had to use a DR/ET Street to get it in the 10's. Hope to try and get it there on street tires.

I'll try this. STS kit with mods in sig, boost controller is set to 10psi with meth sprayed for good measure. Only some STS stickers on the ground effects that you can't really read until you get up close, and some aftermarket wheels.



Yep, those are 315's out back! Some strange muffler thing that is suppost to make HP!?!

Wow I thought there would be a few more cars in here. 10.84 1/4 mile here but the best 60' i've cut so far is a 1.46. I've still got a ways to go on the setup tho.

New car



old car

Yes indeed. It is always a treat to see a daily driven street car with the manners of a gentleman on the street and the bite of a wicked MMA fighter when called upon to flex some muscle.
I love to see the faces of some the street or track kills (especially if they have a new expensive rides like a mustang 427R Rousch) when they get whooped by a "regular" Z28.

The only way you can tell my car isn't stock is if i have my windows rolled down and you can see the boost/af gauges I even have stock exhaust. My rims are black vs the norm grey though. I'm sure my car can run low 10's high 9s
