um...yeah! take her up some in the revs PLZ. maybe try launchin a lil higher like 3.5k-4k. launch as hard as you can take just barely loose traction. FD's can run high 13's at least. give it hell and let us know how you do. have fun with the FD.

Well I did about juts as bad tonight. I was running on the nitto drag radials again. I smoked the tires slightly and it still didn't hook up all that well. But I think the real damage was teh car bogged badly and I was only running 12 pounds of boost instead of the normal 15 I run on the street.

He did. I thought he stalled out. But look at that reaction time!!! A ******' .589. CRAZY!
But we both had fun. I did not run though, as I am stock and running hot with coolant problems.
It was awesome. First time I have been to a drag strip. First time seeing cars lift up in the front end from so much power, and so much noise. I also saw a piston powahed S4. Thing had a crazy *** blower and like 14 inch rear tires. Crazy ****. I did not see him run though.
Thanks for inviting me Dave, I had fun there. And I will be going there by myself sometimes to see what I can run.
