I'm planning on buying a couple of lightweight 16" with a good drag radial tire to use them on special occasions.

The guys at my track can't drive the cobalt ss/sc either. Most all of them run high 15s, low 16s. The one guy breaks into high 14s but he has the stage 2 gm upgrade. I always thought those cars were faster.

I knew it that the SI was yours when I saw the videos last week.

We have to meet there some day to do a few runs.

That FA5 knows how to race from a hole he also have good tires too compared to my cheap Pepboys tires.

Last thursday night the owner of that FA5 call me saying that I was the only one who was able to pull him, that every modded civic that he race most of them stick on his side all the time. And that my car was the only one to pull him. He was calling to ask me where I bought the e-Cutout and how I install it.

Take a look on the videos the 1320ft wasn't enough to pass him but I was able to recover after 3rd gear and cut a feet from his lead.

Is funny that I have to talk with someone of my region in another language.

Que cojones.

I spoke too him and he has better tires and liter wheels but there's this FG2 grey with carbon hood that smoke the FA5 very badly from what i heard. So look out for that FG2. I would like to meet you and race for fun. I feel that car is stronger 1,2,3 but 4 where the same power. I never race from the hole on the streets so I need some practice. He didn't want to race me again from a roll so I'm thinking he doesn't have a chance but I could be wrong. So let me know I think I'm going this Monday.
