Add a Gen V blower to that and you may hit 12s

I'm excited to see the times some of our Bonnies will put down this year!

3.29'* aren't a good idea once you start doing heavier mods like those IMO. I'd stick with 2.93 so you can actually get traction in first gear. Just my opinion though. 3.29'* are nice if you can ever get traction.

To date I have never been on a track that had anything more than the occaisional splash of VHT in the starting area. When I hear of tracks like Norwalk that will spray out to 330' or more is just orgasmic (don't tell my wife :P )

Someday when I finally get out of school and have some disposable income, my summer mod list will look like yours. Until then, I shall continue to slave away with this devil of a reground cam!


Looks like it'll be fun. Can't wait to see the results!
