i bet i would have ran the same time if not faster at that track that night any one that lives in kansas city can vouge for me that our track prep isnt the greatest ask area47 and the guy with the 13.56 lives in canada or somewhere in the northern us so he probley has a higher elevation making his car run better soo make sure you put your bathroom thread in the off topic section

and i think i can drive pretty good so you just wait and see

Right....cause the higher up you go the better your car runs......

But seriously man i'm not trying to flame you. I'm just pointing out that those are regular mods for the ss/tc, it would be like an LSJ guy making a build thread about his stage2, intake, and full exhaust.

Start messing with the head, cams, block...stuff like that. And THEN make a build thread. It will make for lots of great and informative discussions

well no **** its different. its a whole different setup, his gain/mod is way more in his favor than it is on any LSJ that hasn't gone turbo.

but then again, i'ld put money on it that i can get a LSJ in the 12s with a 2.9, 60s, intake, full exhaust, tune, and suspension
