These V12TTs love the cold air......
Man, I've had turbo cars in the past, so I know what joy cold air can bring, but I've never had a car that responded so well to cold air.

It was in the high 30's when I left for work this morning, and I swear I picked up 50WHP. Pulls like a damn freight train. And my new exhaust note.......

Jay, if I dead hook and trap 123, we're probably talking 11.2x

That might be a little ambitious, but I'd be happy to just duplicate my 11.5x

I really just go to these things to hang out and smell burnt rubber.

Ha ha...NEVER! That cam might actually wind up living again - I have an oddball project up my sleeve since the fire and I think it'd go quite nicely in it.

Nice to see the cool weather and cooling mods are serving you well! I'll probably wait to talk more crap until I'm out of the 12's officially.
