where do you live? i know a couple of guys in north macomb county that work exclusively on ls1's. i am sure their much cheaper than W2W or Livernois and quality would be just as good.

Wow, looks like you have some good new times. What else did you do to your car to get low 12's?

You working at Toyota this summer?

Later,

Bill

Nothing, that's what made it so sweet. Better weather at the beginning of this year and better track prep. I dropped my 60's about .1-.15 from what I was getting last year. I dropped like 0.5 s from last years times without changing anything on the car, other than pulling the front swaybar.

Yeah, I'll be back at TTC starting May 15th.
