Would be great to not be the only luxury car at the track.
California Dragway at sea level or close at least?

It should be rather warm in August, but what the hell.

Also sent you a PM.
Oops, couldn't send you a PM.

If you are interested, the mods are the "Evolution 1" and "Evolution 2" packages from EvoSport (www.evosport.com)
I was going to send you my personal email address, but when I tried to send you a PM, it indicated that you did not want to receive PM's (what a fukking snob) and that I would have to contact the site administrator for the privilege of sending you a PM.
You would only be a sucker if you lost. :v

no, us slow folks call fast cars cheaters...there is no way out of it mark
btw: anytime u decrease IAT ( Inlet Air Temps ), the more power u can make with Denser Air. im not sure if ur car has a knock sensor or not and if its programmed to knock timing off as it hits IAT temps of 150....but id say it would help out....cheater....thats consider a mod, u know.
