you wont get kicked out as long as you arent trying to stay in it if the car gets crazy out of shape. they are really only strict on the guys who wont lift and are probably GOING to wreck.....

I'm 95% in! Vengeance took great care of me today and put my new Koni's in. WOW, what a big difference new shocks make. I had no sniff how bad the ole' DeCarbon's were until today. See if I can get this pig into the 12's LOL!!

your old worn out rear shocks would probably let you hook harder than a stiffer new shock...

I will be there.As far as a time I am just hoping the 10 bolt stay's together. If it stay's together I hope to run a good mph and a 9.99 if I can shift good enough.

preload the drivetrain at the line and it will help with the shock Chris. Drag the brake in staging and ease out the clutch to get to the linenever releasing the brake until you are fully staged.

Ive got LT1 edit, but its locked to my VIN...maybe talk to the folks at carputing and see if they can do anything about adding your VIN? If you can find a way, ide be glad to help out.

Yes 315's. I have already been 10.80's with the automatic and only 12lbs of boost.I guess I should just say I am hoping for a decent time and good mph!Ha Ha!
