Default NW top ten

I want to get on this list bad! Can you bend the rules a little and let me use a "G-tech" run? If so, do you or someone else have a "G-tech" I can borrow to make this run?

Thanks, you're the best! I mean it! Really!

I'm really all about the bending of the rule and then being able to make everyone kiss my *** because I'm on the list. A test and tune just doesn't get me where I want to be

Why don't we all just throw out a guess as to what you'll run ? We can then figure out the average guess number and go with that ??

Here's my guess. I say you'll run a 16.78 @ 77 mph in that new GTO of yours ....

Bill, I gotta go with Ellis on this one. I mean, really, even a guy who works with diesels should know that the G-tech is an accurate measure of performance if only because they have a cool commercial!
