We should try a first gear roll. That road seems to hook pretty well. Maybe next we can try a first gear roll. I was actually expecting to lose by 2 cars or so.

My exhuast setup is Mac LT's, H pipe with Dynatech splitflow mufflers in place were cats would be, then a Magnaflow catback. Before I had the Dynatech splitflow mufflers welded in it was so loud you couldnt even here the Kenne Bell over the exhuast. Way too loud!

I have mixed feelings about the exhaust. But atleast it is quiet driving around town.

later,
Josh

that is an interesting setup i would bet you are the only one out there with that setup. but to be honest i dont really like it, but then again i dont really like a lot of cars when they are spun way out going wide open.
