I went to the drag strip for the first time May 5th and i took a few pics. The last few pictures were taken yesterday after i washed the car and got the shoe polish off. These pictures are also the most recent ones I have of the car having Nex Coilovers. So let me know what you think.








I can post my best timeslip later, after i get it out, but it was a 10.375 in the 1/8th mile, not so great right?

I had a lot of problems with wheel spin, mostly when i hit 2nd gear it doesnt want to grab. Im also not power shifting either, i think it has to do with the back suspension not squatting. I also had been consistantly hitting 2.2xx 60 foot times. This run was getting late in the evening and the 2 runs i made after my quickest pass I had much cooler air and couldnt keep the wheel spin down. I want to go back and put on a set of 14 or 15 inch wheels and some 215 or wider tires.
