I would like to check it out.....might have to take a ride up. Mine is in the body shop, after I tried to rip the drivers door off. Took it in Monday and had hoped to have it back for the weekend, but doesn't look like it.

I plan to go this upcoming Saturday for a little bit to see what the new turbo car can do. Still having issues with my trans brake, so ET may not be there, but MPH probably will. Just some baseline runs on low boost
