Around 4k RPM's the Black Ice adds +/- 25 RWHP/TQ... so I'm just hoping to shave three tenths of a second off my time. Probably won't get that lucky but I guess we'll see. I can beat a '79 Corvette and a '97 Z28, so I'm a happy girl already but there's always room for improvement! And always someone who will be faster.

Running on 2 hours of sleep. Milked at 4:30 in the morning. IV'd one sick cow, moved four pregnant cows off pasture.

Sleepy time.

true, but she will sound better doing it this time. would the ss suspension help on take off? or is that just the front part of the suspension that people use?

not sure i agree with the 25hp thing. i've installed the black ice on my v6, and i didn't improve much in the 1/4. I hope you do gain a lot and get good times, but i'm just going with what i've experienced personally.

Which is what I SHOULD have done. Sigh. Oh, well. I don't mind hotel hopping. Get to hang out with tons of different people, and if I don't like it... I'll just find someone to run me down the street to the other hotel and pour me into bed after I'm done kicking it with the PWA at the Host hotel.
