Ingredients for 11's in my sig! ! ! Well,i finished my motor in time to make it to the track before they closed. (I tuned and boke in first) I braught my slicks and some tools to make any adjustments i could but.....dumb *** me didn't check to see if the rims the slicks were mounted on fit my car 
The back of the rim hit my caliper. So,i had to run the cheesy street tires i had (225-60-15). But i was etremely pleased to see my time slip on my first run 12.26 @ 110.58 ! w/a 1.80 60' I got 5 runs in and didn't do much better cuz i couldn't get my 60' down.
If i coulda got the slicks on i bet i woulda hit 11's

running wheels up tens

His car is doing it's own weight reduction 
James, you driving the cutlas to work on thursday?? I think i'm breaking out the 408 as well
I think he will run mid 11's in the spring with some additional traction, a full dyno tune and some suspension work.
But he'll never be safe with the SS
