From 11.02 not long ago to a 10.58 now ya gotta love it. I have the same challenge ahead of me but I wont ever see a 10.5 unless I convert over to a solid roller.

Congrats again.

Dont sell it, you'd be pissed at yourself for doing that. Id keep it, and enjoy that thing. Either with the A/C or not.

Yeah... in the southwest when it gets into the triple digits. Other than that no dry heat compares to humid "kick me in the *****" humidity mixed with heat. C'mon man, Idaho compared to the dirty south?

Yeh its hard as hell to make a car run on water. WHen its 90% humidity out here there is ALOT of water hanging in the air.

Most times in the heat of summer going to work you have to run the windshield wipers, it aint fog either.

I have seen it in the heat of summer be 91* at 11 o clock at night with 80% humidity.

Dont think its hot down here on the water in August, come on down!

Yeh my car is unique looking for sure.

You ever seen a black fox coupe thats been minitubbed and a 325/50 all under the car? Lowered down like mine? They look pretty sharp.

I'm sure it would look good but I personally am so burned out on those things. Every time I go to the drag strip or watch Pinks all I see is fox bodies.
