Negativity is strong with this one.

You know you can run a high 13 stock, you know this. I wouldn't feel bad about being beaten by sixes because they go quicker than you at the moment with basic bolts on (BF) or a bit more extreme than that (BA).

Remember last time out was your first time and I know you were nervous as all hell.

Relax and enjoy, the times will come.

We can, but not the AU offset. EL rims fit just fine I discovered much to my surprise, when I got a flat at the drags last year and a mate with an EL loaned me his street rubber for the night.

I,ve tested a lot of manual boss's mate , if you ever need some driving lessons just gimme a call and i will meet you 1/2 way somewhere ??

Be warned the std clutches are crap , there is a fine line to cross between a smile and %@#$% go* damn !!!!

Lose your wheels, maybe a swap with Neo or Aaron for the night

Looks like i,ll be bringin my van instead of the Falcon :
And you will pick up around 4/10ths , those 20"s are killer and not in a good way ........

I'm going to have to race you again Aaron. If you do pull 13.8 it will be a good race. I just picked up my car from the exhaust shop after getting a quad exhaust fitted, so hopefully I should beat 13.8.

Well I can't let a n/a 6 beat me. Too embarrassing!
I have only driven my car home from the exhaust shop and only given it a few full throttle accelerations. So far I can't really tell if it is making any more power though. I might have to disconnect the battery or let it work itself out over the week. It still may work out to be slower!

Your right, it defiantly isn't slower. I disconnected the battery for 20 mins and then took it for a drive. Before there was no way that I could light up my tires while already rolling, but now... as the power comes on at 3500 rpm the rears lose traction as I'm pushed harder into my seat. Very happy. And now the car even sounds like an 8. :
