Talking Finally going to the track
Next Friday. I'll be running 25 psi in the front and 40 psi in the back, headlight out, lol, gutted trunk, and possibly no rear seats. Heat's gonna kill me...

AutoXing it next month, too. :d

Basic bolt-ons

But seriously, HAI (K&N shroud doesn't do crap), cutout, untuned. Not seeing myself getting a good time, just popping my cherry.

Stock trans, 2nd and a half one, it's seen plenty of street quarter miles.

EDIT: 275s up front is technically a mod, I guess.

What? You guys act like I'm sneaky or something...

Don't be disappointed if they aren't very good, it's not you or the car...it will be this heat and humidity. I imagine you've got it about like we do. I love the south but I hate the heat.

^ Would be nice, but with temps around 90 and 85-100% humidity and bad track prep, I doubt it, lol. I know the car's got it in it, but it won't right now.
