yeah just drop that psi, drop your weight, and empty your trunk hahah. then you can easily hit an 8 and still go "easy" on it

come onnnnnnnn. it took me less than 10minutes to take out my passenger seat, rear seat, rear back rests, trunk carpet, spare tire, AND lower the psi in my front tires and add air to the rears. you'll be fine lol peer pressure is always the way to go. like nike says. just ******* do it.

yeah i guess i get too caught up in it huh. seeing as i'm going to the extend of buying the stock pirelli tires (even though i need new ones anyways) and welding the stock exhaust back on and making some more passes at full weight......again.

well i need new tires anyway, and summer is coming, so....why not lol. and it won't cost me anything to have the exhaust welded back on since its just a muffler. i just want to prove that i can run a top10 stock time. but as soon as that pass is made. those pirellis become my DD tire. and my 27/11.5/15(front) and 27/4.5/15(rear) hoosiers go on as my track tires.....along with, well you know what else ...i think, did i ever tell you what i was going to do?
