low 13's are in the bag. Just get some practice. I have a 99 Z28 with just a lid and pro 5.0 and i ran a 13.3@106. I need some practice myself. Im looking for a 13.1 or 13.0. <img border="0" alt="[Fluffy]" title="" src="graemlins/fluffy.gif" />

Practice is the key guys. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

I go to the track every weekend. <img border="0" alt="[devil]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" />
