Hit the track up last night and got one run in.It was cold and there was no track prep with 3 cars crashing that same night.
I picked up 2.1 mph in the 1/8 going from 89-90 to 92.x my trap was 117 because the car bogged going into 3rd with the traction control kicking in.It was like ice on the track last night.
Managed a 12.5 with a 2.2 60 ft with massive wheel spin half way down the track.
This was also on stock e55 wheels/tires

Cory is the best on Earth but he wouldn't budge with me on the 172. said it was Euro customers only. We have a few of them here like Steve from the UK, wonder if he could shoot you over one.
Klee must be super strict on that point. Cory would do anything for a customer. Check with him though, maybe things have changed.

What is it that makes the track so slick? I have never experienced anything like it on the street. This was with Kumho roadrace tires as well. They're not DR's but they are a huge improvement over stock rubber.

Sound??
I feel bad for the guys that got ripped off, but glad you got yours. Does the car sound any different? I just got my tubular headers installed yesterday, and at first, I thought there was an exhaust leak. Start up and idle sounds the same, but when I get on it, around 3500 - 4000 RPM, it is louder, and a touch raspy. At first I thought- ****, there is an exhaust leak. But when I pull half way into the garage and rev it, the sound is not there. When I pull all the way in, and rev it, I hear it.
This tells me the sound is coming out the back, which is good. I will grab a freind to rev it for me later just to double check.
All other exhast is stock, but there is a diffrence. deffinetly. What do you hear??
