Default Well I think my luck has run out..

Cuz I used it all up yesterday!
I don't have much to comment on.. I have to thank god, hoosier, and the MIR track prep team for the crazy (for me) 60'
pass.
- car was run on 93 octane w/ the snow alky kit and same boost setting it made 765rw here locally just like i drive it every day
drove the car 70 miles each way on the tires (dot) i raced on, and i lift-shifted all the way down.

thanks again to Agostino racing.. the engine has been solid and has not skipped a beat or dripped a drop of water from the hg's.

thanks again to Turbo Technology.. they the job done no doubt! I think it's obvious by the mph that this production system is the real deal.

beginning of this season i was hoping for a 10 and 130mph and 600rwhp; Half way through I am a full second and 14mph faster with the extra 200hp turbotech gave me.. i can't believe it.
next up.. less than 1500DA, cold weather, and at least 2 more psi in my pocket

met a guy there before i left that got the video.. so you guys will get your video

6 speeds huaah!

I was wondering when that car was going to hook. Was this a different track than the one you usually run at?
