Default Are 11s in my future?.....

.....You better believe it!

I will do what it takes to reach my goal. Last year, my goal was to get in the 12s with just a CAI & tune, LCAs, 4:10 gears, and STS shifter. It took me just a few times out as a newbie to reach it, but I got it.

This season, the car is going to be a whole new animal. Down time has allowed me to acquire some goodies:

Kooks LTs and X-pipe
Powerhouse D/S
Steeda Adj. UCA
CMDPs
And of course a good tune.

Mid 12s is a definite. But there are drivers out there(not many), who are in the low, very low, 12s and high 11s with my future mods(with a bit of weight reduction). Which is what I want. I am just going to have to bang the hell out of the gears.

Just thought I would celebrate my new purchases. This forcasted 3 FEET of snow is giving me Cabin Fever!!

Wish me luck!
