Awesome video Beamer! Great for a first try! Do you think you could send me the unedited clip of me VS the skittle? I would love to have that as it was one of my best runs that day AND I beat a skittle!

Yeah, but the track prep was AWESOME! I wish it was a 1/4th because I would have been LOW 13's.

If I can pull a low 2.1 and I don't spin going into 2nd (like I did last time at The Rock) then I will see low 13's. I did a 13.4 at 107 last time with a 2.199 60 ft. I am not making excuses but, if I pull the 2.3-2.5 60's I averaged last time then we wont be seeing the low 13's. Track prep on test and tune nights at the Rock isn't always the best.

I just don't want to disappoint when we get out there and I pull a 13.9 at 108! Like I said the track prep will make it or break it for me. I am not a good enough driver to do well without a spot on track. I need a lot of help with FWD launching.

lol...Ryan needs water injection like a hole in the head...


What I really need is to pay my old dealership the money I owe them before my new car gets a lean put on it........

Ryan then needs exhaust: a full DP to get rid of the stock turbo elbow....and Janetty exhaust.....then Ryan needs to save for the supposed release of the new Spec clutches for the t/c.....water injection? that'll come after the IC and charge piping. I'll get it then since I don't want to tap into stock charge piping......

just be easy with the 1st gear...if ur torque is anything like mine...the torquesteer is fkn rediculous when I take off....my car swings rightward even if I'm holding my damn steering wheel left...its almost uncontrollable.....I would want anyone in any car to hit the wall especially not a t/c........

I don't just don't need the water inj. just yet and I might as well wait til I get charge piping to get it.....all water inj. is going to do is make 1badBlueberrySC add more fkn' timing and risk me blwoing my car up...and I'm scared of that.....even if he's not....for now I'll add the bolt ons I need too before my tune gets any more aggressive......and believe me and Matt if he cares to chime in...its fkn' aggressive.......

ur evo is a pipedream with the type of mileage ur looking for on one....the longer u wait the more precious evo's are going to get the **** ran out of them by 16 yr olds with a hardon for speed....u need to get the tc and put an AFM turbo on it......besides with the evo u'll have more things to deal with like driveshafts and power steering pumps.....and it wont be as sexy or as "sleeperish".....
