1st goal is to see how fast I can get the car on real street tires in street trim, no DRs or slicks. 3600 lbs, 3.23 gears, full interior, only bolt-ons.

2nd goal after I finish that is to take out as much weight as possible (while still being a everyday driver) and break into the 11's in a internally stock LS1.

My new years resolutions are:
- Stop being so lazy and paint & polish everything I can
- Get longtubes and some suspension stuff
- Save for an addition to the garage so I don't have to store my 68 Chevelle in my parents garage in Indiana

Engine dyno intake shoot out at Wegner between the LS6, LSX & GMPP intakes on the RS's new LS1 engine.

Swap the Wegner LS1 w/TEA 2.5 LS6 heads into my 91 RS, get the car up and running & go 11's...

New clutch for the T/A

Maybe B/C Tuned rims for the T/A as they look like Fikse FM10's.

My resolution is to get my car into the 11's. I'm looking to buy a 3rd gen to build. I also want to get cross drilled and slotted rotors, a line lock, and a driveshft loop soon.

I resolve (hoping) to be in the 13's on the motor without a power adder! Or, if I get my money straight, buy a RADIX and be in the 13's anyway!

My resolution is to hit high 11's by the end of the year, cam only with all the bolt ons. I think I have a good chance. Once I get back to the track with my new drag radials I should be hitting 12.70's. That will get me motivated. After I hit 11's, I might get crazy and throw a 150 shot wet to get into the 10's.

Car will be full weight, minus spare and jack. wish me luck

My new years resolution for my car is NOT to spend money on it unless something breaks or I get a house, which ever comes first

Well my plan for this year is to get in the Mid 10's. So over winter my car
is going on a little diet. Just the basic items. Light weight carpet , just installed K member, spare , back seat. I was at 3800. Hopefully I can cut
a couple hundred pounds. Im only running 4psi of boost. I wonder if thats
a record for lowest amount of boost ? Who knows maybe ill even get skinnys on the front. Good luck on everyones projects .

My goal is to have the motor completely built and start getting the fuel/computer system started. Then I would like to start the fitting for turbo. Just have to figure out where I am going to put it first..

Here's my New Year's resolutions for my car...

1. Install my Pacesetters
2. Purchase & install a line lock, LCA brackets, torque arm, and shift light in prepping for this year's race season.
3. Purchase & install a cam (somewhere in the 220 or 224 area)... this step is optional based on budget.
4. Run at least mid 12's consistently at the track.

2. To win some races so I can try to recoupe all then thousands I spent...
3. To try and talk Tom the Roofer into buying a big enough enclosed trailer to haul his car and mine
