So had the car out last night and all I can say is it was f*cking cold, I believe around 5 deg's. So needless to say with 18's and not being able to do a burn out my traction even with AWD was severely limited in the first couple of gears. I was fighting a miss which I have tracked down to some old plugs. :banghead: Now on to the good. Slowest pass of the night was a [email protected] Mph. So that was good but I was plagued with high 1.8 and 1.9 60FT's due to not being able to get any heat into my tires. I was just glad to break the 140Mph barrier I'm now the first Import In Alberta to break 130Mph, and the only to break 140Mph. I'm pretty sure also the first to break 100Mph in the 1/8th and the first and only to break 110Mph in the 1/8th. I have a plan to hopefully put some of this excess power down to the track, and I would like to thank my friend Will for fabing me a trick steel replacement Rear Diff housing. I couldn't have gone past the 50Ft mark without it. :worship: I still have alot of boost left to play with and all these runs are done off the bottle. I well hopefully post vids later on.

Just bolt on 4 slicks, you're running 140+mph and it's still street legal. Fuck "street" tires.

I know just kind of a personal goal I had was to run 9's on 18's, I can just add some more boost if I need to, but I well probably make some race tire passes next year.:guns:
