I'll have no problems running 10.5's.

yeah they have a 215/50-13's they fit on 6.5/7 inch rims of a 13" diameter. heres a link,

is that so? well ----, let me ask you this, do you see any drawbacks to using the tires i stated? itll be mostly spring/summer/fall driven once its turbo'd. the reviews look good enough for me to trust them. would anyone else here trust them?

The bet is:
Your car has to run a sub 10.5 with a non "professional driver" its first day out.
No changing parts around and turning the boost up to an untuned value or any of that nonsense.
You show up with the car and you run it only basic adjustments allowed (tire pressure, launch rpm, ect).

If the best time is higher than a 10.5, you have to have Ma$e retune the car.

If you run a time better than 10.5, _____________________________________.

GSR manifold with the butterflies and with a DPFI style throttle body. I heard it sounds sick!

You realise this car has bigger engine, bigger turbo, better suspension, longer wheelbase, and weighs 100 lbs more than Goforth's CRX? The setup is going to have a hard time not hitting 10.50's or better.

Joseph Davis lives out his fantasy of fast cars through other peoples cars. One day JD one day. We'll be in the sky racing, and you'll have long lushious hair.
