I'm running the BFGoodrich G-Force T/A KD's on my car and they hook up extremely well and with them I was able to win the autocross event at the Saleen show last year so cornering is excellent as well. Plus they run a little wider then most tires and look great to boot. Last month though I found out they are worse then useless in an inch of snow. Anyway, I'm pushing 400hp to the wheel with 3.73's and they work great.

I'll post a separate thread on this later today but the car is back together. We just finished it last night. It sounds great but I think I have a sensor or vacuum issue I need to resolve yet. It ran great for an hour and then started getting power surges and a weird idol. I'll find it.

The real big news is that when I was bring it back home a simi decided he wanted to be in my lane and drove me into the guardrail. I hadn't had the car on the road for an hour. I have damage on both sides, all superficial I think but I will need a new front finder. So the car will be in the shop for another month or so but at least I get a new paint job out of it.

I'll post more on this later with some pictures.

He didn't, he kept driving. My parents were behind me and saw the whole thing and followed the guy but he just ignored them. They only got the plate to the trailer though and the CHP doesn't think it will do much good since they change trailers so often. We'll see. The whole thing just sucks and make me sick to think about. My poor car.
