Your flames look AMAZING! Did they put that on top of your vinyl or did you get everything painted on?

Had the stripes painted on. All I've done so far is the stripes and window tint so it looks pretty. Now it's time to make it quicker.

Thanks to everyone for the comments. Hope to make it to a meet sometime real soon.

They are the things that bring your car from the 12's to the 11's. They are the reason your car isn't running low 11's.

PS.....and the reason jim isnt running 11s too

tons of power + street tires = 12's

tons of power + DRs = 11's

tons of power + DRs + practice = 10's

10's =

You may be suprised how much tires would help you. You cant get traction with the mods you have now. Why make it more powerful?

Rule #1 Get the power to the ground!! (without breaking anything)

Hey everyone! I have been reading thru the forum looking for the other enthusiasts in Jacksonville. I usually work on Saturday until 6pm. Do you guys ever get together on Saturday evenings? Sundays are good too but not all day trips like the one coming up. Got two babies at home and a honey do list every SunDAY. Here is a post that I recently submitted on my car. (It happened at the JAX Landing) Check it out if you like.......
