Ya I am gona be Racing as long as I get back from ct on time to make it out there. He will have a huge handicap I have like 100lbs of **** in my car that will stay there. But the 40 roll my car loves as long as it hooks it likes to spin and kick out. After cam and spray I am doing susp. I want hp first them traction. Then weight reduction but idk what to take out on a dd? But I will be going moly on all the susp and maybe a new k member hoping it will be all done by next winter cam and spray are spring break installs witch is a little over a month away

But it should be close I trapped 108 before my ls6 intake,tb,headers,new bigger catback n cutout, and dyno tune. I ran the 13.34 it was my second fastest 60 foot and 1/8th mile my fastest one I hit the breaks didn't have a helmet and they warned me to keep it above 13.5 or I had to leave. My best was a 2.0 60 and I think it was .23 faster 8th mile

A 40 roll is OK.. for me the best is 50 or so. All I have is Eagles GSD3 275s and 3-point weld-ins. I hook fine from just about any spot in 2nd as long as it isn't 25 degrees out. If it's 45+ I easily hook in 2nd on spray. I can't wait for spring.

Spare and jack. AIR and EGR. Maybe the windshield fluid reservoir. That's all I took out.

Worst case scenario I will drive to TugBoat's house and race him. At least he won't get banned then. There's only a handful of people on here late at night to keep me occupied.
