congrats!!!


thats amazing.

it took me pulling a couple hundred pounds of weight out of my 94 Z28 (which already weighed less than the 5th gen) and a 150 shot of nitrous to break into the 11's.


Congrats!!!

Tell it to all the GTO's and Mustangs running with them at my track. Just be happy for the great run on a car with so few mods other than the juice.

Is it time for a tune, yet?

sort of.

the speed rating on tires is for a certain speed for a duration of time.

hitting 110+ for all of 5 seconds is not going to be detrimental.


people have been racing on spare tires for years with no problems.

55mph donut spares are the poor man's skinnies.

Rod thank you for all the help and support.
BUT DO NOT MAIL THE BELT we allready know how you and the US mail work.
Also I have a feeling that I would just have to send it back to you.
I cant wait to go heads up with you and I hope it's at Atco.

I felt safe with the spares however the track said the car runs to fast to use them so I could only make the fist pass that night.
Time to spend more $$$$.
