Now that I'm probably keeping the car, I want the throtle body, intake mod and more! I think with a few more mods and the right weather the car could be sniffing 10's.

The car ran 12.09 bone stock with the Contis on a hot August night.
If you get more upgrades which I highly recommend, you should consider getting a cooling upgrade first....

Thanks bro! The only thing holding me back now is my old junker. How bad is it when your daily driver 4 door sedan outruns your muscle car? I have to get the old beater down the track before I can go to crazy with the 55. MNM5ETR, I still click over to streetfire and watch that vid as well. Thanks for the comments!

Albert has the fastest non-NOS time. I'm a close second and the car is the fastest K2 car that I know of. All that means is that I have a freak! Time will tell what these cars really will do. I think my next move will be the TB and air intakes. After that, hopefully someone will have a better cooling mod.

What's our average stock 1/4mile time for stock E55's? I think it has to be down in the low 12.2's for this crowd?

I think we need to get Dragon down to sea level and see if a new record can be set. 11.7 in Las Vegas at 2200' would put in in the low 11.5's, assuming the D.A. was at 2200, which it hardly ever is.
