Very cool. Welcome aboard!

When you said that only the right side of your parking lights came on, this thread came to mind.

I've heard it's a good crew in general around here.

I'm going to look into a pulley/intake/tune addition in the near future. Has there been any word on the injectors? I know LET was talking about that and how upgrading them would help on the top end. One thing I did notice on many of the cars here was that with the standard mods, ET's were dropping a lot but mph gained on the second 1/8th weren't increasing much over stock. Something definitely is holding the cars back, and the fuel issue could definitely be the problem.

Nice ride. Congrats.

Personally my first mod would be to change out the frosty headlights. It will dramatically clean up the front.

I know member neihouma is selling some clear ones. PM him.

Good luck!

Definately do the pully/tune. The new LET intake is quite nice as well. The tune definately helps with teh second 1/8....Jerry and crew actually retuned me at the track event and we broke into 12.4 for the quarter...
