Track was nice, DA couldn't have been better, removed spoiler, removed spare & jack. See sig for new best time. 2.1 60 ft. The track guy down at the timeslip waved me over on one of my 13.9 runs and gave me a hard time about not having a helmet. He said I could keep running, but next time I better have a helmet. Geez! 13.9 and they freak out! Guess it's time for tinted windows. The funny thing is the run after he bitched at me, he was running the tree. I pulled up and he looked at me and shook his head. That run was when I hit my 13.8.

I've got steeda pulleys and timing adjuster in the mail. How much rwhp will I gain with these together? How much should they lower my ET and will I gain any mph?

thanks guys.

You should be able to get a better short time than a 2.10. I was able to cut 2.0 short times with one 1.98 short time on the stock goodyears. Theres a 13.7 in that car somewhere. Practice makes perfect.

You should be able to feel a difference with the pullies and timing adjuster, remember to run premium fuel.

Ahhh..shut up. You're just mad that I'm running faster than you were when you only had exhaust mods.

Don't you mean to say 13.0 = more than just exhaust mods?

or....maybe Jackie Chan when stock < StngStr when stock?

or....StngStr with your mods >13.0 ????

Yeah..I think that's what you meant.

you're too funny. hey...I sent a link to the post on mod depot about tomorrow night to my wife and asked her what she thinks. I put some cheesy stuff on there to make her in a good mood. Hopefully she'll go for it. I called one of her friends that I work with and asked her to plan a "girls night out" and invite Kellie. That would work the best!

Track conditions and how they prep the track has a lot to do with times, not just drivers or tires.

give her a good thumping before you go. That should set her straight.

she now realizes the power she has. She's trying to make a "deal". I'll probably get to go racing, but it's looking like I'll have to pay for it.
