Clean and rides pretty well. Little problems here and there but overall I'm happy with it. Just gotta get everything on, tuned, and tested. How is the CV coming along anyway? You gonna be able to hit the track?

It would have been fixed a week ago if I lived at home. I am taking it down to get it looked at tomoro, no jack I cant see it myself so they will make sure, hopefully be done by Monday.

My traction would have to be so bad, i lose like 3-4 cars off the start, to not catch him by 100-105mph. My traction does suck but if all else fails ill just drop it into 2nd at 10 and catch his ***. Let alone that run was with you still in my car. Also that night it was what about 25-30 outside?

I believe I have also stated several times I would probably lose from a dig if not it would be very close either way, but murdered, ha doubt that **** seriously.
It wasn't a 10mph run. . . sorry it was closer to 30

N/A is more effected at higher altitude, due to less air. Boosted cars....are boosted lol. Not nearly as effected..but they still are.

Its all about less oxygen in the air for the engine to combust at higher altitudes...

I mean it sucks having a bad DA and all to compare times to the rest of the country, but its not like your in the left lane with 6000DA and the guy in the right lane has -2000DA...

True, but when it comes to times...it can make you a lil sad lol. But when lined up against a boosted car....N/A is still at a disadvantage.
