Thats cool. Just wondering what a car like this can do with practice.
I've been to the track 2 times when the car was 100% stock and 1,500 miles, so basically I have zero track experience.

We'll see soon enough. <-------in that order

You to man I'll try to plan on sticking around for a couple nights, like Friday and Saturday, if I don't have to fly. I may have to just drive up and pick it up and leave.

I got no problem letting ya take her down the track. I suppose with an auto, if it dead hooks outta the hole with slicks and with the hammer dropped, there's really nothing more to do but go for the ride, right?

I don't have a cage so I'll have to run some 8th mile passes for practice, then do an all out run. I guess if I hook during any of the 8th mile passes I should just say "fugg-it" and keep going.
