nope haven't gotten a call or anything but I don't care. Decided not to mod the car anyway so he can sell the parts elsewhere. Was actually thinking of buying an 06z with a h/c exhaust already done. It is 59k but only has 1700 miles and is 600rwhp 540tq. Probably won't buy it and will instead put that money into my current car but damn it is tempting.

first race from around 38 roll i started in third for traction. We both hit it and he pulled out about 2 cars and it stayed that way for awhile. By the top of 3rd i closed it to a car and half. Went into fourth for a second and felt like i would have closed him more but no road left. Second race we started at 45 and i went from second. both hit it and i pulled out for a second then blew the tires off. He pulled back even and then it stayed that way all through third. nls to 4th and started to inch away maybe. but then it was over.

damn so I guess that little thing moves lol. Too bad no traction man, I shoulda let you borrow the hoosiers lol.
My tires were smoking last night when I got home from all the rolling burnouts I was doing. But goddamn when thy are heated up the hook awesome. Was able to launch in 1st from 4800 with limited spin, and hook 2nd gear pretty nicely and all of 3rd.
