I'm pretty sure someone was at stonehenge doing a ritual, but finally, after 2 years....





























I cut a 1.98 short time! Yaaaaayyyy. I guess it was the weather but I ran a 13.37 @ 107.05
60' - 1.982
1/8- 8.63 @ 81.38

Not my best but that short time excited me on the old 245s

Nah, just a good driver mod. I have a few 1.9 60s, granted the amazing track prep is to thank for them.

I'm running the ventus v12 evo in a 245/45 on an 8" wheel. They aren't the stickiest street tire I've had but they are impressive.

So, I'm guessing you're putting about 310 HP to the wheels.

Not bad for a 'lil 5.3!

Great job!

We can get rid of it?! I should probably leave it alone based on how I drive though...

Welcome to Alabama...

Corrected to a 13.1 @ 109, which corresponds to my 13.19 pass at 106.9mph in better weather.
I was thinking around 310hp as well. I just wish I could get my tune finished up, never seem to have the time...I was going tomorrow but this tropical depression got in the way
