That time isn't bad I suppose.

With those mods you should be at low 15's though from what I've seen on here.

Did you beat those other Tiburons? Win any races?

What did those other Tibs run?

Yup, I hope to reach low 15's this summer..

I beat an old VW who was doing 16s+, lol...

Pascoile (black rd1) did 15.270s and the silver one broke something LSD-related...

Cars got the mods, now your next mod is to improve your launches. Spend a couple tanks of gas working on it, it would be nice to see you go into the high 14's N/A but that would take real sticky tires, a perfect launch, cool conditions, and some luck.

Do yourself a favor and throw a 50 shot on there for just that little extra something at the track. Thatll put you in the mid 14's easy, even with your 2.5 second 60'

We basically have the same setup.

Main difference is that he's got a Phantom grip and a front BBK.

Well, the phantom grip would help, even though they're cheap inserts.

BBK actually going to slow him down, cars, even with lighter brake upgrades, lose hp when getting bigger brakes. All a compromise between going power and stopping power.
