It wasn't that cold. 45 degrees and sunny. Damn, good luck on getting out of the 16's with that kind of traction.

I don't know how much of that the rear diff is going to take by itself, especially with slicks. I was spinning my fronts off the line for about 5 feet.

BTW, I forgot to mention that I think I lost my front diff today. It got me home and all, But it bled all of it's fluid all over my driveway. I'm sure it probally has a nice big crack in it. I'll look at it tomorrow and try to patch it up,again.

I imagine it won't be very hard. My car was in a very grave state when I made my 05 passes.
Traction alone should shave .3 seconds off my [60ft] time as I had none with my old all-seasons.

It's still just hope though. I don't know how fast I'll be going with what I'll do to the car by next summer.

Since you are sticking with 354, what are you going to do? I want to go to the strip sometime in the summer.

Heck with that weather we would've been a N/A 13s with a 4.11.

By next summer I plan on getting wheels and good tires, stage 2, and an exhaust system. My CAI will be reworked into something not so hodge podge.
Once my exhaust is replaced with something not rusted to hell I'll be able to work on the transmission and go ahead with the lightweight driveshaft I was planning on having built.
That's all that's on the books for this next couple seasons.

When I hit the strip I'll let you know. We should try to get Khalil to come as well. Might even try to make it a NASIOC meet.

You'll run 15.4 maybe 15.3s all day then. It gets tougher once you get down to the low 15s.
