Tony are you going up to the track anytime soon? I don't think I have ever seen you there except at the SO in '06

oh man!!! and you wonder why people harp on you.

you gotta read up on the differences between dynos. DSG's dyno isn't underrated it just reads low - which doesn't affect anything except bragging rights. If all you want is bragging rights - get your numbers and don't go to the track - because you will disappointed every time.

As an example, David Buschur has one of the lowest reading dyno's in the country - do you think he "under tunes" people? For the power his cars are consistently the fastest cars at the strip across the U.S.

See we all thought he was a kid, by his maturity level - turns out he is a police officer that doesn't know alot about cars.

impressive times.
my best 1/8th was 108
should run a decent low 140 with that kind of traps. congrats on the new record for the car

You know it's kind of funny how I live in MA but the only track I've ever been down or dyno time has been in Ohio during a couple different SO's.
I worked 2nd shift before so I could never make the trip up. Hopefully this year things will change now that I have a day job.

Not fixed, still only running pump gas. I am going to IVEY on June 9th and then going to spend a few days in NYC with the Wife. Should be a fun ride home anyway.
