I ran. 13.4 at 106 with 2.4 60 ft. I spun hard off idle then hit the rev limiter in third. Just need some seat time on a 1/4 and it could do a lot better. Where else can do you know of for drag racing?
The drive home was a blast I need to get a tune so I can rid of the speed limiter.
Gonna head out to nurnberg real soon can you go during the week?

Picked up a Gopro a few weeks ago. Been having some fun with it. Made a mount that go on the passenger headrest and got a suction cup mount the other day. Mounted it on my RC truck and my sons power wheel too.

Beautiful, love the color of course! I have a stock V6 and have hit 105, so fun to drive. Enjoy your machine on the autobahn, do wish we had one here although I-85 out of Atlanta might as well be.

Great shot. I'm glad to see that you got to go to the Ring. I keep tabs on it and it snowed there last night for the first time this year. I will heading there next year and will hopefully have some suspension add ons then too.

Well got all the suspension stuff installed besides the UCA and bracket. Could get the one bolt loose so gonna take it to the craft shop to install and will be able to get the pinion angle set right with the lift they have.
Also ripped out the firewall blanket since something got under my hood and tore a chunk out of it. The car has only spent 3 nights outside and something got under the hood kinda crazy. Haven't starting drive the car yet since the changes but the weather has made it really tempting. Maybe change the oil and starting driving it again this weekend. Also gotta get the alignment check too.

I have the same problem with my firewall insulation. That's so crazy. I think that's the only spot that something could get up in there. I would like to get that same stuff from Hyper. Still trying to decide what to get though.

I chose to just drive mine year round. I can't see spending the extra money on a beater. I already have two cars.

Are you a part of Autobahn Thunder on Facebook because there was a brand new set on sale on there for cheap. I'm holding out for the Ground Control Coilovers from Hypermotive.
