Full tank of gas is only an extra 99 lbs, will probably need 10hp to make that up, so not much of a big deal.

Launching and traction are key. Best I could do my first time out was a 2.1 60' time, not sure about my reaction time but it was slow too. 14's are not bad for your first time out and stock, I've seen worse. Actually, a new 5.0 stang did 14.5

They were a foot off when measuring the trap speeds, only a professional could tell the difference.

Syndicategt, unfortunately I drive a "desk" not a patrol car anymore, and I dont have control of tickets. I used to but I'm in a different section now. Just be careful around the base, its very rare for them to give warnings.

I'm just learning more about my car, and I just wish I bought a different model But I guess I can work on the exterior.

I think if we get enough interest, Jay could help out. I know Eric and myself are down, so that's 3 members.

Ok, decided to professionally detail my car today instead of doing the intake valve cleaning (maybe do that next weekend). Time to start clay baring, will post photos when done!

Got my alcantara material yesterday, ripped all 4 doors's old CF wrap, and driver side vent trim, finished with nice alcantara. gonna finish the center dash piece and the center console tonight. shit is pain in the ass to work on, not flexable like 3M Di-Noc at all. on the corners took awhile to make them look good. used 3M 80 and that adhesive bond pretty good.

Freshly Zaino'd, 8 coats total. First time doing the Zaino process and I'll never use another product. I used the How To from this forum, very well done. Here are some pictures, hope you like:





Will put more up next week when I get my M3 bumper on.

Dude, I'm 5'8" and 170... About average or slightly smaller frame and I tore my hands up installing those damn things! Time to find a young nephew or something. Good luck.

I'm jealous. I've been putting off waxing my car since buying it. I've been using Zaino products for a few years now. Great stuff. You'll really appreciate it the net time you wash your car and see the water sheet off. Makes drying so much easier.
