blame gm, not me. I didn't come up with that goofy unibody torque arm setup. although it does work well by simply replacing the soft stamped steel parts with rigid tubular ones.

so only putting a DR on your car will put it in the 11.60 range where it should be with that trap and eleventy billion lb ft of tq?

If it were up to me we would have a few of those and the eco boost. Some of the supervisors feel they are too fast, and we may not be responcible enough. 2 marked cruisers honking off from a 50 wouldn't have anything to do with that tho, damn dash cams.

The torque is the only thing these cars have going for them lol. Our first half of the race is where its on top. The back-half is ****. Get those suspension components up to snuff or Civics are going to embarrass you while you spin. Spinning is not winning.

i had a bolt on stalled auto car that went 12.0s @ 3600lb rw. it would go 1.60 on the track and I swear 1.65 on the street. it was only fun from a dig and only like 1/15 ppl would digrace. awesome fun at the track. lame as hell on the street.

this m6 car is taking a back burner. I have bigger fish to fry at this point in time. I have lots of car parts to install but no time or real desire, the car is fun enough for now. I think a decent dr would help it a lot, those bfg kdws are not good for much.

What are your bigger fish to fry?
