lol, lost most of my front teeth to a baseball while sliding into 3rd. When I was younger. No hair loss yet, and can't read a keyboard more than 6" away without glasses. My kids are starting to make fun of the way I type.

Why on earth would you want to stop yourself from that? I've had the car a short time and have already done Roush hood scoop, side scoops, window tint, weather tech mats, CAI and a tune.

Exterior wise I just want tints, lower, black emblems and wheels. Engine wise is to be determined, my wife keeps telling me she loves the car and wants to keep it. If so ill have to sell the fox and get me a daily. Cant get rid of the TBSS because its the kid hauler.

Damn it man... Now I see why I was running on really bad DA, not sure if 1900 is bad or good, but my car was definitely slower than yours, in my defense I have to say that a Challenger SRT8 was not getting below the 14s either.

I hope next time I go to the strip I can get a 12 second car instead of a mid 13s car

Your car looks really good.

You'll correct to about 2/10s faster. So in reality you ran low 13 in perfect condictions. Posted a new best last night. It was a nice 72 degree night. I cant wait for a 40 degree night to cut this car lose.

Finally making some decent progress on that project. Should be ready to fire it up and race in another few weeks. Got my fingers crossed. I have some new pics in my build thread.
