Yay! An update and a picture!



Took my car to the local drag strip a few days back.

Had a blistering run too, turned in a 16.2

Well whatever I had fun. A few days later I had my exhaust modified and a new cat installed which made for a bit smoother exhaust note, so that made me happy. I still need to move my O2 sensor to try to clear my CEL.



This is the worst thread ever

Yeah my launches were terrible all night. I'm running Kumho Ecastas right now. They're fairly terrible tires, but I should be able to get out of the gate better than I did.
