everyone wanted a SC time slip so here ya go

I posted this back in April after it happend. But since there has been alot of people talking about no one posting the slips, i will post one from Flints run.

This is Flints run w/his 01 SC CLS...it a warm night, and he also had 19" lowenhart BR5's on the car. Also just the axleback CT exhaust at the time, now he has the full setup. So on a cold day with better traction smaller wheels and now w/the b pipe he should be able to get his time lower.

nice time. with light rims and his improved setup i think he can shave it off down to 13.3 or so.. technican at V/R said that with their stage II transmission, with their updated torque converter, its possible to shave up to .5 on the quarter mile with the s/c. if you got an auto with s/c that might be something to consider. that can put you into the high 12's which is kick ass

The other car was a modded mustang around a 1990-1993. Sucked running a 13.67 and still losing to the guy in the other lane. I am waiting for the weather to cool down some before I hit the track. I will be running with the stock 17's and sumi HTR+ tires. I am looking for 13.5x.

Matt do you use DR's ?

I have heard concern of DR's and our slushies, people not wanting to use them b/c conern of blowing a tranny.
