I don't... why would you do that too?

Makes sense and I figured that'd be the answer.

Dyno'ing 405HP/390TQ at the rear wheels was very nice. Maybe next year I'll fix the car and start racing it again.

Is this in English?... I don't understand it, but I get the gist, HAHAHA.

Back to your regularly scheduled thread....

those 60'ers should be better for a car running 12's.

Those cars are economy cars, not sports cars! haha

Sure, maybe in the early 90's. And it wasn't 10's of thousands in performance parts. Anyone who was spending near $10,000 on an import in the 1990's was blowing at least half of it on stupid ricer crap like body kits.
