Might be getting a new 1/4 time Wednesday!

Hopefully it won't rain over Englishtown NJ tomorrow, because I want a new time!

Since my last (sad) 17-something time, the mods are:

Homemade cold-air/ram-air intake
Removed stereo (since everyone else does it!)
3.73/posi/disc axle

I can't spin the back tires, probably because of the posi unit. It's not like I have one P275/60r15 getting power, now they both are.

Oh well, that's still cool! I get a tire chirp every now and then out of the 1-2 shift! It makes me want to put the stock P215/65r15 tires on... of course they probably wouldn't last long!

Looks like tonight is a Go! Man I can't wait to get outta here... *checks time* An hour left? Argh!
