I'm new here and just thought I'd introduce myself. I'm a 21 y/o college student at Auburn University. I drive a NBM 99 T/A M-6 with a corsa catback, SLP lid, SLP CAI, LS6 clutch and major traction issues. My best et is 13.4 @ 107 with a 2.3 60' <img border="0" alt="[Burnout]" title="" src="graemlins/burnout.gif" /> My 1/8 best is 8.8, and I have pulled a few 2.1 60's but in less than great weather conditions.
P.S. All of these were before the Corsa exaust
