Re: 2.73's goes 12's (MC TORCH RED)
:cheers: Congrats torch, you were so close w/ that 13.0X you had, i knew a good luanch w/ low 60 would do the trick. :thumbs:
I'm going to the track tomorrow to see if i can get a lower 13 sec. slip before i swap my gears.

:cheers: great times.
Unfortunately, I never got to run my car stock. Now, I am having a few mods done before summer gets here. It's nice to see a 2.73 break into the 12's. That gives me real hope for next year. I can't wait.
