lol, i know right?

I ran 1 tenth slower then my limit, and the ppl at my track get up my *** about it. Sometimes I wish i was back at my home town red-neck track where they dont really care unless your going quick. 10's and lower.

Thats one thing that would suck about a vert. You don't even have to go that fast to have to have a cage.

that means next year you're getting black flagged first outing! hahaha

i bet you'll be at least .9-1.5sec faster on the nitrous with your new build. especially if you get new tires like you were talkin.

Yup. 13.5 is not that fast, but I do understand there concern's.

at this elevation (density altitude of 8,300ft) I run a 13.6@101 on a 100shot. I plan on running that (or a bit faster) all motor after this head/cam swap.

The 9.5" tires will hook fine for motor passes, but when i get a roll bar, or just decide to go all out, i bet it wont cut it.

the micky's i have now are on there last leg anyway. Just cant decide between 10.5 or 11.5" wide for my next pair
