Default Finally did it.

Most of you know my build.347 cube on 21lbs now with the bada$$ stage 3 cam from CCP.This is the first time out with 15" wheels and my new rts wheels with the little 8.5 hossier slick.First pass out mph 149.All the rest of the pass my charge pipes blow off.I'm happy to get the 9s.This car will go 9.5s easy @152 or so.BTW got a 1.43 60 foot on a 8.5 slick.Big thanks to you guys that helped on my build.

Really nice!

Got a little squirelly on you - but you held it together - there is definitely more in it!

What size front brakes you running with the GTO front runners?

Thanks,Matt

Congrats Ricky!! Unbelievable performance! With a stick no less!

Great driving and great MPH!

You are actually running the MPH that it should for the HP (which is rare these days)
Excellent job on the car and driving!!

there 9" wide...when u put 10" wide u need a least 7.5bs...When u look at rts wheels there tell you that rims are 9.5 or 10.0".By their specs all wheels are made .33 wider,so 9 inch is really a 9.33 and a 10 is a 10.33
