Kill list, Viper included
Just thought I'd update you CL people on my Kill list (in my 240sx, not my CL): Every Honda so far, every trans am, a FireHawk, every Z28, every Mustang GT, every Cobra, WRX and finally got to race a Viper. Driving South on 75 (Dallas) Sat night and ran across a guy in a red Viper, i went, he went, then we launched at the same time from about a 75 punch and I pulled away by a couple of feet all the way till 130 till my governor kicked in (damn thing). I'm SURE that the guy was no perfect driver, otherwise he woulda pulled away, but he DID try and I DID win. YAY me. Ran at 13psi. BTW, I have lost to a Firebird Formula with exhaust, headwork...

pricewise, i got a NICE hookup. my friend Chris Jex (2nd SR in N TX I believe) gave me, motor, tranny, ecu, wiring, head gasket and apex BOV installed for 2000 
Only cuz I hooked him up with a good job at TI. anyways, ya, its my stock turbo it sux, 13psi is kinda maxing it. yes, my custom manifold from CTC is on the way. we just dynoed one of our SRs with the custom manifold and a BB t3t4 turbo and put down 417 to the rear wheels 
all stock internals. he raced a viper about 2 weeks ago at 19psi and walked away by about 4 cars and the guy driving the Viper is a great driver (275's on back) Mantis, i live by whiterock lake, so anytime d00d

Question ???
i have a 1999 3.0 cL which is better to get the $177 aem pulleys(the set comes w/ 2 out of the 3 pulleys) or the $359 unorthodox (which is the whole set all 3). Also i heard the aem pulleys messes up the altenator?

about the 275 tires, i was talking about the 240, not the viper. tahts the 2nd viper i've raced. the 1st one was a yellow viper with some pretty old guy driving in mesquite, we bnoth punched from about 30 and the old guy came literally about an inch from hitting me when he down shifted, cause his poorly designed dodge has too much torque for the back end. it was really much of a race, because after he almost hit me he swerved into a curb and stopped. oh well, he was cool for tryin.

Damnit
I got beat for the 2nd time tonight, a C5 Corvette. I was only running at 10psi (fuck, forgot to turn it up, wasnt expecting him to race). My nose got to about his door, so he only took me by about 5-10 feet, and he punched it before me, but i still lost.
