Get your butt to Cali. I need to learn how to launch better than Mikey. It would be cool to see you drive my car against Mike and his car. 
I can teach you how to launch, I dnno about better than Mikey though. Wait, so why am I sending Mikey go fast goodies that will definitely get him into the tens? lol jk

There is an open night test n tune coming up a week from tomorrow. And it will be a night session, so things will be a little cooler, but not by much. They do prep the track very well though especially at night. Maybe we can get Alan to join us
**** Friday, June 26th - Night Test and Tune – Gates 7pm ****
So is it an open night? meaning it's open no matter what? What weather do you see? LETS DO IT JOSH MO? I will be there

Sign me up too (for the big event), just need a date far enough in advance.Umm good luck with that. It's going to be tough without nitrous. Things don't always work out as planned, ask me how I know lol

If I'm hitting a 1.56 60ft now? Why would a 1.50 60ft be out of the question? The mods on my car haven't stopped so I'm only getting stronger.

I didn't say it was out of the question but it will be difficult to say the least. 60' isn't all about how much power you are making. There are many variables. I hope you do cut a 1.4x 60' I know what the limiting factor is on my car during the launch and the harder you push your car you will find yours too. 0.06s might not sound like alot but it is a world or a difference in just 60' With some beefed up axles you can probably do it but I am afraid to launch my car hard because I know I will snap them like twigs. And after you beef up the axles you never know what the next weak link will be

At this point I've pretty much given up on all of them lol Ideally I would have a seperate tune for the nitrous too If I had the money I would build a 9s MB street car. If I were you I'd start looking into LSD/axles. All that power being transferred to one wheel could get ugly. Especially if you mess up during the burnout and only get one tire heated up.

Haven't decided yet. I'm still shopping around for a tuner that can tune my car with the SLR injectors. Been waiting over a month now with the injectors in hand At this point I've pretty much given up on all of them lol Ideally I would have a seperate tune for the nitrous too
No doubt your car 60's like a champ. Nobody can question that. Things just start to break the harder you push it. I want nothing more than to see my friends pushing MB's faster and faster If I had the money I would build a 9s MB street car. If I were you I'd start looking into LSD/axles. All that power being transferred to one wheel could get ugly. Especially if you mess up during the burnout and only get one tire heated up.
