Snapped off by a new Edge So I got into it with some newer GT today, rolled from a lil' under 30 to about 70, he had me by a solid 2-3 cars the whole way. Sounded cammed. I'm guessing it had a good bit of work. This is on my new tires. Then some hot chick rolled up behind him in an orange GT/CS with some s/c whine.

He had more than cams to pull like that. 40mph spirt and had you by 2-3 cars? I'm guessing he had a saleen TS. They are quiet and pack a punch.
That's cool a hot chick in a CS with a charger.

Fun race, im the guy with the silver gt. Yeah that was my wife in the gt/cs..lol. Both of them have paxton superchargers. I thought i was gonna run out of gas after our run, when i left work i had 5 miles to empty. After our run i was at 0 miles to empty...lol. I try to keep mine stock looking as much as possible, only thing that gives it away sometimes is the moroso studs sticking out in the rear. As far as performance it has a novi2200, mac 1 3/4 longtubes, full exhaust and 3.73 gears. I saw your car at auto value all day yesterday, i work right across the street at bowditch. That guy with the blue ws6 from auto value stopped by today, i guess he knows our new manager.
Thanks for the fun race and nice car........Eddie

In June it put down 484hp and 425tq. I've only been to the track twice on my et street radials and best time has been 11.93. Im running a 28in tall tire with my 3.73, and i think thats hurting my time a little. So i think i might need to switch to 4.10 or get a smaller tire

However, most that are tempted usually back down when they hear the loud whistling even under regular acceleration

x2... my car even has the 16" Chrome T/A wheels on it and all.... Sitting still, its only given away by the pillar guages and the intercooler in the front bumper (I guess the MT ET Streets don't help either)... little do they know that there's 700+rwhp/tq awaiting.

117-118. soon as i shift to second it kinda falls on its face and out of the powerband. Havnt had good weather to expect high traps. When i ran my 11.9 pass the temp was 97 degrees with a track temp of 151. Im wanting to see maybe a 120 trap speed in cooler weather
