Car looks great!! Those Welds are the bomb. My favorite drag pack by a mile.
What stall do you have? Your 1.475 is no joke! The auto is easier on the tires but still, you're moving out.
I've never seen a manual car have any luck with these tires - did they recently change the tread compound? I have several friends who have tried and they were horrible on the track though good on the street and long lasting.

David's car is absolutely gorgeous in person on whatever shoes it's wearing at the time and it FLAT OUT WORKS regardless of prep. He puts me to shame in my Z06 all the time.
The silver lining is that sometimes people confuse our cars and people congratulate me on running so fast when it's really David. ;-)
