The car went 10.8 this weekend at 137mph and had its highest trap of 140. I still can't believe that it really went that fast on stock suspension and stock bottom end.

But really congrats
haha you should, we always joke I have a munchgsx stage 1 block and make more power than a lot of people with built motors. I also did a compression test tonight and 3/4 were 160 and #2 was 150 which I was pretty damn pumped about.
I'm hoping to send in my coilovers to get rebuilt tomorrow, figure out any way to get some weight out of the car, figure out a good tire setup, pray I don't blow up, and try and make it to the track at the end of the year with possibly a bigger shot and see what this bad body has in her before it blows.
It started out as just taking out the carpet to take some of the sound deading stuff out then kinda turned into might as well do this while I'm in here and now I'm left with a torn apart car. When its all put back together you should never be able to tell that there are a couple random brackets and some other little things missing. haha
The goal is to try and have the car weigh around or just under 3000lbs with me in it and not very much gas. That weight is without a passenger seat and the backseats though. When I weighed it up at BIR it was 3055 with me in it so I think its an attainable weight goal. If I can't I'll probably get some sort of after market seat when I have some money instead of that heavy 2g leather power seat.
I'm also buying some slicks this week, have my coil overs hopefully being rebuilt at the moment from tein, and I also have a bigger nitrous jet sitting on my desk waiting for the last track day at Cedar falls. Attempt to go big or go home right? haha

I've got a carbon fiber blitz body kit, extra light lime green paint coming, big aluminum wing because its lighter than stock, and a cool looking guy pointing decal for the side of my car.. Does the hp stickers add actually transfer over to faster track times or does it only make your street cred go up?

I would kind of like to get a carbon hatch and lexan rear window for when I go racing or ricering but I'm broke and the weight removing I did was free, just took some time.
