apparently the s65 runs 12.4s seeing that my dad hasn't been on the track in a while he'll probably run high 12's or low 13's

Friday sounds good if everyone is down. Nauman, i must have missed your text. Justin, Nauman, Mario and whoever else is down....lets do this.

I will tell you guys, HRP takes a bit of practice to get good runs in. Sticking the launch is the key.

I am about 50/50. I really want to go but got a long day tomorrow.

Plus my battery is dead again! Tonight I am going to disconnect the HFL and see if that helps. If I do go I might have to take the jeep.

Anyone with a 3G TL looking to upgrade their center channel? I just bought a pair of Infinity Reference 3032cf speakers and wire adapters. I'm looking to sell the other one.

Any takers before I post in Black Market?

It's the center speaker in our dashboard. Pretty crappy speaker.

I know, My car wasnt running right, tho.
I fixed my clutch and got slotted rotors.

Now the car feels a lot better, and its twisty worthy.
