Good to hear! I can't wait to get mine down the track. I have all the suspension done,and just need to find someone to adjust it right and finish the csr pump install. Hopefully I can get down in the 12's as well. Get those springs and rockers changed out and you'll do even better times.

Yeah, you have skills. Throwing it into reverse at the 1/8th is real impressive.

Now that the rental is over, I need my HSW kit back, bud. Have it here by the weekend if you can. And to the dude saying that he's lucky he didn't blow the welds on his intake with that 100 shot, he's fine. Idk who you are, mate, but as you can see the old boat anchor can take that all day. Oh, and he was only spraying a 75 on that pass. Douchebag.

If one was not aware of OP's age before, that statement certainly cements OP into typical know it all teen ager.

Now go get some slicks and learn how to do a burnout.

Why all the hate I think your car is running great Coolman, save up some cash and get a stronger rear so you'll be ready for whatever mods you make in the future.

great times man. i have been watching you over the past year or so. you are doing well. your mph is right there where it should be. now just work on getting the 60ft down. i've run a 12.39 @ 106mph but with a 1.68 60ft. take as much weight out of it as you are comfortable with and figure out your launch. its a lot harder with a m6 then a A4 so you have a lot to be proud of.

boy dosen't it feel good to get that first 12 sec slip? a lot of hard work paid off when you get it.

look into the shootout man its a hell of a time. for the first 3 years i was like you and didnt think i could afford it. but i went last year. i had to! i was the one who orginally proposed to have a bolt on only class! lol I think last year all said and done i spent about $1500 on the trip. not too bad for a 20 hour tow each way. oh and btw i was the one who came from the furthest distance to race.

Best way to shutup all the haters is to put down the number on a national level event
