Busy indeed, spending money. That is Memphis Motorsports Park.

I have the stock lower control arms on there now, which also worries me. I saw a picture of one that got bent, but not from launching hard.
well, he launches at 5000 rpm dumping the clutch. also, he does a 2nd gear burnout, and holds it at about 6K rpm for long enough to really heat em up.

your car is more than capable of 12.1x's or even lower. just drive it with no fear of breaking it haha

He had a DA of +1400. With a DA closer to zero, this could have been his possible time.

It is an untouched updated e-mail tune straight from Doug at Bama Chips. I received it via e-mail the day I called him to tell him of the upcoming cam swap. And he sent it FREE OF CHARGE. I was already running his 93 Race Tune, which was purchased earlier. Bama Chips ROCKS!

Amen to that! Doug and I just traded about 2 weeks worth of emails sorting out a tuner problem.....that wasn't even his responsibility.

I found out exactly why his rep is so good.

SWEET!!! These things are fully capable of 11 sec NA times with the right combo of bolt-on parts and getting the stars aligned. I just pulled a 12.54 @ 110 and couldn't get my 1-2 shift all day long, so I'm figuring another 3-4 tenths easy. Just need cool air and some track time:
