Went to the street legals this past Saturday just for fun. The car is setup for the road course but I put Mickey Thompson 315/30 r18 tires on to see what it might do. I knew it wouldn't hook and the first launch, without stalling, the car got sideways. We then tuned out about 30% throttle on take off and I rolled it off the line for a soft start. Was able to run a 10.9 @ 124. That's with big 295 tires up front. Funny thing is I thought they were gonna kick me out for no roll bar. It looked like he was about to check but he probably saw my A pillar, which from far looks like a padded roll bar, because he stopped half way and handed me the slip. Lol. I'm sure with a real slick with a taller sidewall and some skinnies it'll run a low 10. If I can stall it up for a good launch and hook, this thing will leave the line nasty. Might put some stock shocks to soften it up and get a bragging time slip.

It looked like a desert and I didn't realize that's where you were at first glance. Lol.

Just a little 3rd gear pull. The new converter locks up nicely.
