You should be able to hit it. Just don't smack the rev limiter

It seems like you go to the track on a somewhat regular basis...when you start going again next spring, let me know...I'll prob be needing new tires by then and would love to tear up the old pos michelins.

We really should set up a track day before the end of the year. Milan has T&T into November, great racing conditions.

no, 14.4

before the 16.2 run i noticed some dragster tore the ship up out of the track , then the camaro in front of me slid out and almost lost it, so i decided not to launch hard at all but i still stood there and they just lit up through 2nd gear, got some tar all over my rocker panels
