I saw a new shop on 11th today close to mingo.Didn't pay much attention.I think i have one of your radios.After seeing how my car sits do you think i need to put the front springs in?

Yeah you have my other radio. And I would do the fronts. My car sits like yours would if you did the fronts.

I have the spring compressor,maybe at the next tech session.I wanted to do a shifter but this weekend put that on hold.I have a picture of a 07 gt that ran 11:80 on a set of 20'' wheels and tires.The caption says the tires are non DR's.Hard for me to believe,but the picture doesn't lie.

How fast would he be on 16''DR's.I don't have near the horse power and i was spinning in third and never did go full throttle.Any less gas and i'd be in the 15's.

The math says 60 ft.times would be alot different on 16's than 20's.I guess i need to master my set of 20's.I'm headed to bed.Have to be at work at 5 in the morning.I need to take off work early.Brian is seeing the specilaist tomorrow.He's kinda down since the diabetes diagnosis,need to be there for support.

Not sure on the machine shop they use. It's the same guy that Kurtis has used for years. I know they do alot of work on compressiors too. Kurtis's new shop is on Pine off highway 169. He is gettig the new lifts put in this week and the new dyno just came in the other day. I believe he plans on being in the new shop in the new few weeks.

11's on 20s is REALLY hard. You have to get them to hook up. I would image you would have to leave right above idle then slip the clutch and short shift to keep from breaking the tires loose.
