I'm working on getting a custom 80mm tb good for 25-30whp. I wanna break 11.5s and then I'll stop. The nitrous would put me in the 10's but I'm scurred of it

Oh yea, and any locals are welcome to join as well.
Maxwell- Did you get new tires from Radial yet? I should be getting my DPE's mounted and balanced there this week.

Tim is the shop manager. He appears to be pretty young but damn he's sharp. I believe he came from Curry's originally. I agree, Walid is extremely helpful and accomodating. He loves racing that Radical!!!

Best of luck and welcome to the club. As you know, the possibilities are almost endless. I'm probably not the only one who thinks referring to yourself in the third person is a bit odd, so maybe change that up. Either way, it's all good & good luck.

Track day is looking like its going to be April 3rd at MIR. If you wanna go make sure to pm me because space is limited to 16 cars. I might have to take money up front because one time I had 20 people listed as going and only 9 showed up and I ended up paying a few hundred dollars out of my pocket, NOT COOL!

Hell, can I give +5?
blackbenzz, I'll be in touch. Any time you guys are doing anything at Funktion, I'm probably interested. It's pretty close and I enjoy talking to Walid immensely.
