I realized today at the Domestic vs Import Day, that racin on the sh*y RS-A eagles with 28K miles and a dozen or so burn-outs, that don't grab well. I went from a best of 1.8 60ft a few months and mods(FRA and 100 octane race gas) ago to 2.2 60ft time now, with a 13.8 run overall and i lost in the first round be 2 thousands of a second. But i took my buddy on the turnpike from a 60roll to 120. he has an evo VIII that runs 13.0, i love the top end of the LS1.

The RS-A's do blow goat ass. I think you would love yourself a set of BFG's KDWS's or KDW's.

I loved my BFG KDs when I had them on my car stock. You can just think about doing a burn-out and you wouldn't be able to see the back of your car from all the tire smoke. They were nice :twisted:

FRA= Free Ram Air mod, have to cut into the airbox to do it, it works until i can afford real ram air. I felt the throttle difference right away!

Do the BFG's work well in snow and rain? Unfortunatly, sometimes it does have to be driven in the sh*tty New Jersey conditions. Can't wait til i get to Florida next year, Max Performance Summer Tires gettin on and 17" wheels, and a whole new paint job
