What's it have for a tranny? You should powershift the **** out of that thing at least a couple times. You gotta be losing a lot with those shifts. Leaves pretty nice though!

Do you have any friends who have been racing stick cars for a while? If so maybe have them take it and see if it can be powershifted. I have been told before a car won't do it, only to then go and do it in that car. Once you know it can, you can work on it and get it right. I see low low 12s with some hard driving!

I see low 12's also! When i go to the track again i am taking off my front sway bar,putting my steeda alumn lower arms on off my 4 banger in place of the arms that are now on my car. I have some tubluar arms on there now and my buddy seems to think they are a road race arm,so thats why i wanna swap arms.Plus i will air up my air bag cause i was running 0 PSI in it. Yes 2 of my buddies i hang with can drive stick,so i'm gonna have them run it also next time.My one buddy ran another buddys stick car and went 3 or 4 tenths faster then he did and it was his first time driving his car!I was shooting for 12.2's that night,i feel it has and is capiable of 12 flat i need more seat time. Those 10 passes that night was only about my 20-30th pass since i've had the car.It will be about 3 weeks before i can return again tho. peace
