Traviz was honest enough to take himself out of the contest. Since it was only between 'street legal' cars.

Yes, unfortunately, my "best" was just a 14.2.
I thought Eric ran a 14.3xx. no?
No worries.
I don't mind purchasing one for the time/effort given.
Would have liked to see one of those in the blue that was pictured though.

Haha, thanks Terrell.
What was your 60' Eric?
2.007 here.
I'll snag that 1.9 next month.
I could've had it with one more shot.
Obviously Eric should be around a 13.5-6 with that mph.
Looks like I'm not the only one that needs some practice.
Traction isn't going to magically appear, you need to learn how to launch that sucker.

i'm sure a little bit higher and would've got under that 2.007.

2.2 60' off idle -- same as I ran, twice. I know the car is faster than that, just need more practice launching.
You were spinning those tires for daaaaaays in front of me.
I just cleaned mine off and rolled forward.
As they wear down I'll heat them up more.

Mine added a good 25 HP and 100 ft lbs or torque! Instant difference!

Seriously though, I wanted it on the car ASAFP so I haven't 'detailed' the installation. See ther bubbles there still? Sexy "Club"... I know.
I also got Alex to send me a second black one. I'm toying with the idea of putting the black one right behind and offset to the red one for a real 3-D effect not to mention representing the colors of the best college football team in the (Southern) land.

Caddy - layering them, great idea ! It really would add a neat 'drop shadow' type of effects. I bet positioning's gonna be a bitch thou - I'd go so far as to say, go for it and if it doesnt work out I'll comp you another.

As soon as I get done with the honey-dews I'll be detailing my car and trying this out. If and when I ever move back east, I want to continue to sport the NorCal Third Gen logo.

Still looks pretty good to me. If the weather would clear I would wash my car.
It's been a while.
How about those damn gas prices? Sheesh!

OK gang... I finally added the other black vinyl to the red one for the shadow box effect. I think it turned out just swell.

Niiice -- great job. Definately a best-case scenario.
If you write up any instructions, tips or tricks you used to do that I'll be sure to add 'em to the site, and further orders.

Oh, nothing to it really. I lucked up in getting the two to line up correctly. That's the biggest trick.

Looks very nice. I want one too now, can't decide if I want a white or blue one though. Maybe I should just do what Cadillac did, white and blue would probably look sweet together on my car.

Are they all white? Can't say for sure I will buy them right now, money issues, but I will let you know. How much do you want for each of them?
