I might get brave and go a nizpro kit and crank the camel up a tad..  I figure if I can get 11.8 with just what I have atm, I’d be good to go for low low 11’s and dare I say it high 10’s with a few more mods like cooler and plenum & piping.
Then again I think by xmas all these times will fade into insignificance

Thanks Greg, but I wouldn't put too much faith in those $600 per corner Continentals. I've had a flaming row with the tyre reseller the day of the drags about the poor performance of the tyre for the price they cost. They may be OEM tyres for Porsche, BMW etc, but that doesn't mean they're the best. I'd have been better off buying Bridgestone RE55 motorsport tyres.
Competition breeds innovation! It would be good to see a 10 second pass from one of these cars.....who will do it first?
