Cool, Thanks I wasent to sure what to do with my front wheels. I know with some good 60ft's and some DR's I can have a mid 11's car easy. Here are some pics of what I have been working on today, See if you can guess what it is?

seems like they would have been able to troubleshoot/fix the prob and give you a tune @ higher boost. When are you getting the retune? nice power though.

Well they did not run into the problem tell later in the day and I know what the problem might be its not as easy as I make it sound, might be like 2 hrs for them to troubleshoot/fix when I can just do it myself and save some green. Well My retune will be somtime next month.

You def need a set of track rims.. What do those weigh if you dont mind me asking?
Forgot to answer your second question and funny thing is I'm selling the wheels/tires and put them on the scale to see what I would be losing and they are 60pounds for the front wheel and 65pounds for the rear wheel all 4 wheels weigh an amazing 250pounds!!
