I have however, used the Torque app and ran a 13.8 on the street with a 100 or 101 mph trap. Now how close of a time that was, I have no clue. My car runs better than most full bolt on 2v's lol. I trapped 82.6 in the 1/8th on the same app, when that is what full bolt on 2v's run.

After I get my O/R X put on, I will take it to the nearest 1/8th track and run it there. I am in need of tires though.

My original point still stands

There was plenty more excuses from him after that about going to the strip, but the app racing part got me the most

I know I'm just yankin' your chain!

Street tires at the track aren't fun if you have decent power and want to go fast.

Yea, they did not work at all for me. My first run I spun all the way down the track and netted a 16.3 at 98 . Next time Ill have good tires and run it hard now that I know what the track is like.

Screw that haha. That's a lot of money to find out something I already know for sure . They made a lot of money on a crappy app.

Hold your horses, man. That $4.95 can be some prime saving for mod money to get him out of the 14's

If I could find a deal on a clean, minimal issue black auto WS6 (or TA with ws6 hood) like that around here for around that price, I would buy it tomorrow.

Its a regular T/A with a Ws6 hood and slp lid only mods it has, The paint is the real only issue with it. They put flames on the front and used a cheap clear coat I think, because its peeling and foggy as hell.
