Same here bro..Next time we will try to come down the day before so we can take our time and not rush..We never seem to leave of time because of some last night stuff..lol..We were already discussing coming down for your track rental day.

It was good seeing everyone help each other out today. Great sportsmanship on everyone's part..

Great job Nick....hard to believe your car isn't even running right and you are getting some great 60' 1/8 and 1/4 mile times. Once your shift points and tps are tuned correctly you will be getting lower and and lower and probably breaking some parts.

low 10's on Nitto DRs....pretty impressive.

After you get what you get out of the CCW setup....make a couple of low boost runs with street tires just to see what it will do in that trim.
