Skinnies
most importantly more seat time
(may be going 9's very soon though if I trade my car for a T/A, more drag race friendly)

Verdad Gallardo I had planned on it all along but then reading the safety rules and talking to guys on line..they are pretty hard nose about a roll bar if you are more than a tenth below 11.5 ..........PLUS.........the machine shop is jerking Tracy around with my heads so I can't even plan on having something to drive. We do have a Silverado I could get in with..runs 12.8 NA...might be fun. I will look back into it this weekend.

I rarely get to the track and have only been once in this car (that was 13.1 with bald tires and stock clutch), but I'm putting this bitch in the 11's or setting it on fire!

I'd like to go 7.80 or faster at my local 1/8 track with the mods in my sig. and a drag radial..
Current best is 8.32 @ 89.55 with a weak 2.14 60' on street tires (non existent track prep and 2900ish DA).
And, i'd like to get to a track closer to seal evel and knock off some 11's as well.
