But these cars are far too light and far too hot once you get 'em rolling to be confined to the 14's until death do us part.
I think it's all in the launch, clearly. Fastest N/A time I've seen prior to this was a 14.7 and you've beaten that consistently by .3 every run... with stock paper, nonetheless. That's a testemonial to your driving skills. Most people claim that a good CAI can drop .4/.5 off your ET. Add a tune, and I see no reason why it shouldn't be good for another three tenths off the bottom line. Add injectors... you get the idea.
I still think Franc needs to hit the track... he's comfy with a 6-speed and has about $2,000 into his motor. But, he's never raced his. If he can't crack 13's, somthing's up.
Thanks. I should no problem running a mid 13 second time with a full bolts on N/A car. For some reason I always claim "unrealistic" times and get laughed at a lot but then when I back it up, something is up with the clock or something hahaha
You are right, if he catn run a 13 second time, something is up.

I hated the fact wing deployed each time, I think She is making me lose a mph or 2. and maybe a .1.
I will try what you recommended, all I need is a fellow crossfire owner to cash his ride up for me at track, swap the wheels real quick for a few runs. For the wing, I guess i need to pull a fuse right? Is there anyway i can simply disconnect the switch from the wing's motor at track?
