Default Back to the track...

So, I'll be going by myself again in my quest for a 10.XX,Tomorrow.26Aug.

My Daughter decides she wants to go watch, and now her "friend" wants to see how his STI, or something or another, will do against me. Claims to have that and that done (I only half listened to the rice talk) and 500+ "guess" and also claims to "street race".

Looking forward to this.

Be prepared for numerous ricer 'excuses' when his car doesn't perform up to his expectations. We'll expect you to post (at least ) a partial list of what he comes up with.
Also, good luck. I hope your car doesn't disappoint.....

Great job!

That thing is pulling strong. Last year when my sixty-foot times were in the mid 1.5's like yours I was only running 11.05's @ 119 or so. Are you running 4.10 gear like I am or not?
