If you stay off the gas pedal and drive with some sense on the way up here, you should be able to cut it down to $300 in gas


OH, Congrats again on those times Julian

well julian, you were right and wrong, the 28x9s didnt fit BUT, if i rolled my fender i mean an 1/8th of an inch they would clear. so the lip is about a good 3/4 to 1 inch, i am going to take the whole lip off and go back ASAP...


sucks cause i picked them up straight from the tire shop that mounted them and went right to the track, didnt have a chance to roll them today.

i did run one run at 14 psi on my street tires. 11.9@124, 1st was pointless, 2nd was getting better but sideways, third kinda hooked up but spun at the top of it, 4th hauled *** and 5th rocked!!! i babied it out of the hole with a 2.0 and trapped 96.5 at the 1/8th. pretty much granny shifted the gears so the clutch could just be dropped and not rode at all.


BUT... the highlight of the night was on the way home, a yellow C6 Z06 was in traffic with me, we then got a clear shot, we both took off from a roll at 30 mph at the same exact time but he jumped me cause he has no lag, then the turbos kicked in i caught him and pulled him a half a car through third, then i shifted and he pulled back cause of the lag issue, then i pulled him a car in fourth, those cars are very fast for sure. that was all at 14 psi. fun times!!


cant wait to turn it up some!!

go run your car on your street tires and see what you run alberto, its not possible with that much power, i said i was going to run on my slicks and they wouldnt fit, end of story. big big big big big difference in pedaling your car down the track sideways and running it full force, when i crossed the line in fifth i was actually aimed at the other lane... in addition, the past three days in florida we have set record high temps, it was 91 yesterday, 92 the day before with lots of humidity, not excuses just stating facts. sucks our track is closed all next week, i might trailer it all the way to the tampa track, hour and a half away, cause if i break anything i dont want to see that towing bill!!

yeah, the guy was very cool, it had 800 miles on it. i cant believe how fast those cars are stock, i mean at 14 psi, my car is pretty scary but it took a lot of work to get it there, those you can just go in the showroom , pick a color, hand them 70-80 Gs and have the same thing...

You built one awesome car, with slicks your times should be rediculous! Keep up the good stuff!
