Hit up the track for some racing... was planing on doing the auto-x they have set up but it wasnt running so I decided to do some slow motion drag racing lol.
Anyways... hit 16.8's last year. Hit a 16.65 this year so I am getting better. Stock EP w/ short ram intake and axel back exhaust. Track's elevation is at a wopping 3500'+ above sea level so that doesnt help and no you cant compare it to the 15.5 you ran in your stock EP so dont hate. Was cutting awesome .1 to .2 lights all night long and I was beating most of the noobs by half a second or more off the line.
Couple pics....






3.2CL-S w/ intake that i almost took.


So ya.... I need to get faster, alot faster... but I just cant justify the K20A swap yet, car just rolled over 25xxx km's so it barely broken in haha. Maybe next year.

IDRC/NHRA Altitude Correction Factors drops my time by 0.9575
so that would put my 16.65 down to a 15.695

I dont know whether your being a smart *** or not
Either way... I'd like to do both... or atleast be quick, not slow
