Well on Friday I went out to the track finally. Left everything in the car including the spare and speaker box. I also left my 17s on since that is what I use on the street. Best time of the night was 15.07. I had some major traction issues. Last run of the night I had a serious malfunction. Check it out. Please exuse the profanity.

Make sure you dont adjust your boost controller to 14 pounds when you put your pepsi back in the cupholder.

actually he seemed calm, probably shocked and insanely pissed at the same time" :p I think he had to keep going to get off the track since its back to back, i think they would have made an exception though

You're a true driver Jarid. i think most people would have freaked out and slammed on the breaks, let alone finish the race. thumbs up.
were there any other problems? you mentioned traction but i thought you'd be hitting 12/13's out the box...

Holy crap jarid, thats really sad to have seen that happen. Is your roof okay? Fixable? I hope it is, I wonder how the hood pins malfuncioned like that. Maybe one broke loose while your wheels were spinning or something.
