Welcome to the boards!

Car looks very clean, good job on the mods.

Haven't had a chance to listen to it yet as I'm at work, but I'll have to listen when I get home.

haha wheel hop owns my ass in this car

1st gear is worthless and 2nd is rough and in 3rd the chirp actually feels like the power is transferring to the ground

.

The other day i finally took third out to the fullest and pulled it up to 100. I need to get another video of her. She should be going in for a dyno and tune end of this month. I'm waiting to free up a good 15hp

I almost used your car as the basis for the 1GN logo but I couldn't find a good angle that would look right

Great looking 1st gen though!

That was some crazy ass hopping/tire chirping. Sweet car. Have you 1/4ed it?

Lackof · Post by **Lackof** » Mon Feb 12, 2007 5:29 pm

no not yet ... the first run will be at n2k7 this year, that is if i can get time off of work.

First dyno and tune end of this month also. It's running SUPER rich.

I've been told it's an easy 14 second car from other owners that have the similar setup. But it all depends on the driver and my wheel hop kills me

... it runs on stock tires too.

I'd definetly bet on 14's for you. Get some DR's and push that bitch.
