It's just two plates on the sides. Can't see it being worth much.

<img border="0" alt="[hail]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_hail.gif" /> Great numbers Justin.

Not too many people can claim 11.00 car with just a Cam and Bolt-ons, and a small shot of N2O

I'm almost positive he used a 75 shot...so look at his NA of 11.8, and since the small shot (75 or 100) he got to 11.00.

I'm not saying its impossible to get 11's with N20, but he didn't spray 150 shot either!

11 second car with stock internals is AMAZING without the use of N2O

The 11.000 was in horrible conditions also. I'll see what the 150 pills - launching out of the hole will do in a coupe weeks. Should be fun if it hooks. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
