He made one 14sec pass before his car puked oil everywhere, but it made a pass...

Bench racing.

Hey, a pass is a pass. Besides that, it wasn't oil, I nuked a few plugs and then was overheating on the drive home. That's what I get for self-tuning instead of just bringing it to Shane like I always have. Time to replace the headgasket, boo.

Re: Chicago Half-Mile Shootout - June 1st-2nd 2013

I wonder what I could get my talon or Evo up to. Although I'm sure I would destroy 5th in the talon.

What trans do you have? I was just talking to Jon At TRE today. He made a few recommendations and said I shouldn't have any issues with 5th. The land speed VR4 been running stock 5th for years with no issues (228mph).
