LOL, maybe even more, considering our big fat 20s and our big fat stereo, not to mention our super heavy interior and sound deadening stuff.....

12 car lengths is tad of an understatement. He's running 7s, a stock GS may 14s. I'm not sure what the 60' and 1/8 mile time of a stock GS are, but just by guessing...by the time he's at the end of the 1/4, the stock Gs is barely half way there. He would be 22 car lengths ahead.

Wooow!! I believe I saw a pic of your car in SuperStreet mag...the intake/hood looks modified a little since then. Great numbers and good luck in the Pro outlaw RWD class. So where in Florida is the event?

And, good luck from one dad to a future dad. Life is good!!

Burton, Will do. As far as the suspension on our car. We use Santhuff struts in the front, and Santhuff shocks in the rear. I run Tein Flex on my street cars.
