Sounds awesome!

Jeff thanks for going for the ride and yea, I would like to get a day time vid of my car in action, and the posted speed limit on this closed course was 170 mph so we we within the limits. Nouman thanks for the posting of this as I have never heard my setup other than dyno pulls on vid before. 12+ lbs of boost assists with the rapid run up of the tach and speedo. Other than the ripping of rubber in first, I get traction because I was never in full throttle until about 5k in third It is the throttle modulation I have learned in my 7K plus behind the wheel of a Sick HP car

Nouman again thanks for posting this and I was out last night with the boys in Sick HP at the hang out Jeff met us at, the normal Friday evening, where I do a spirited run before arriving and then once there the party starts, suds and cigars to start the weekend off right

Nice, I'm not sure changing out the shorts as much as hidding a little wood after that run.
Sweet!
