You got too much weight on the car Tim. Your 1/4 time is almost topped by a CTSV coupe that weighs 4200lbs+ and makes less power. It's kinda really bad. http://www.mpt.org/motorweek/reviews/rt3004a.shtml

Tim when are we going for a drive? We are long overdue, plus you haven't seen or heard my car since it was stock (front plate bolts and all :P)

You can't compare the two. Theirs is with a pro driver and the best it can do. Mine is with 1-3rd wheel spin and me driving. I suck at drag racing. My car should be able to run low 11's no problem with a real driver.

It will be a few weeks unless you want to head out to Long Beach with us in a week and a half.
I'm getting ready for that meet but then will have some free time as all the car mods are taking a break.

Agreed. Gotta get some 295s on there. With some of the audio/video equipment and other stuff removed you might even get a really low 11 maybe 10.

I put 10mm spacers on my rear and they clear so 295's should fit. Might try after this set of tires is wore out.

Nope, wasn't me. I live way up north valley and have not been down to that part of town in a couple weeks.

I changed my halos out for LED's. I think I'm the only sedan with white LED rings.

Speaking of leds you can see them in this pic. I've got leds around the inside ring of my shrouds, but they are different than Tim's.

Yeah Tim, I was surprised at your new stance! I didn't realize you were so low and flush. You really have the perfect balance of form and function.

You and papa were my inspiration.
I like the look a lot. Less traction but looks killer.
