My car is running strong.
On the streets using my g-tech rr (I bought one a long time ago so why not use it), tires are bold - I hit a 13.1 @121.4 mph 1/4 mile time. Needless to say traction was terrible, 1st gear is impossible to launch, 2nd gets a bit better but it really breaks at 3rd...and the on ramp I used was uphill

With the right set of slicks and a semi good launch at the track I should be able to hit mid to high 11's at around 122 -124 mph.
(I know you are currently the champ for the C class but since you moves on to the big E I don't feel bad taking away the title

)

and all of this is with the NOS off. I have to be honest with you, I am actually kinds scared myself...and I am not sure I can keep the car straight with teh extra 50 shot (so figure about 28 - 30 rwhp) Maybe in third gear I can hit it. I will only try it at the track! I feel like the car is strong enough without it - although I love the gauges!

How are you enjoying the new beast?
