I'm with Sleeper. Withdrawal here, too. NFS: The Run just isn't cutting it anymore.
Lol... Just keep in mind that I likely have to replace break pads and tires at least twice as much. It's quite the double edged sword

Impressive. With Roebling being in my Backyard, I might see you out there sometime. Now I can't promise I'll be keeping up, but at least I'll look good when you pass me.

Dude, I guarantee there are a number of "us people" who would gladly trade that to get to the track with "you people".

Haha. Well I usually run with the PCA and on rare occasion go with Darkside. If you're in white group you'll be out there with me.

Too many variables working against me lol. I'd have to find a trailer to lug my track wheels/tires (I have hoosier scrubs) and other crap, because there is no way I'm travelling that far (from northern VA) with all my gear AND track wheels/tires in the cabin. Thanks, though. Sleeper put it best: I'll just have to live vicariously through you guys until it's time to get back out there.

lol, i just drove to Alexandria,VA and back from northern Florida. It was not the most fun drive ever (roads in the carolinas are terrible for a car with an aftermarket suspension).

Really? Only 500 hp with a supercharger? I figured I was around 475 hp with race tune/intake and a borla exhaust. Does this sound about right to you? I haven't done a dyno run yet, but it's gotta be +50 horsepower with the tune and intake I assume. Do you have an 11 GT?
