maybe extend the shut down 1500ft!

no i dont have an idea on the raceweight. i estimate over 3700# with me in it normally (car was 3600 before turbo kit)

but this week i added the roll bar and left the pass and rear seats out from the install.

indiana is a long way to drive on hoosiers and skinnies we'll see.

dont think anybody will be paying attention to my 140 traps with harlan over 150.

I finally watched the video!
Did you hear the announcer??!! Way cool!
"Sounds like FORCED INDUCTION!"
I think he was right!!!!!
Then at the launch he said "OH YEEAAAH BABY!"
And then when MM backfired he said "OUCH!"
WOOOT! That was freakin' awesome!!!
