Default Whats happening???

this section is dead today so im really bored at work lol. i guess ill try to get it moving by mentioning im going to the track tomorrow in quest of a 10sec pass in the z which is going to be very hard to do especially since i have no cage. last time out the car ran an 11.6@118 untuned and before the 4.11's and fast set up. also this was done with 295/35/18 bfgs and now i have some 17 et streets. i just hope i dont pull a fp and come home with an 11.00
