well awd dont need water so were good. as far as bringing your own vht, thats not happening. if you want decent track prep you have to go to the wednesday events. its more money, but they prep and only allow an X amount of cars in. And i wouldnt be comparing track times from what you saw. look at teribble's light mods, his first times at the track he was killing it and I can drive the hell out of mine when everything is in good working order. All those other evo guys you seen dont have the seat time/ race experience at this track . It all comes down to how well you have preped your car , slowevos a good example

Water is good to clean your tires off , if you want to do a quick burnout. And I can't help but compare. There were alot of big power cars out there running bad times like those turbo hondas and supras... ( but then again, I have no idea how much the weather and altitude effect cars up here

I used to do that with my slicks but doesnt seem to help that much unless cold out and need to heat up the tires.

The hondas and supras are always spinning down track. The silver and blue supras were on street tires and wouldnt hook even if the track was prepped.

I'm too lazy to pull the IM, no reason to put a ported TB on stock IM. Maybe I should just buy a IM core to get ported and keep the TB.

It does have a factor, ask Paul he said he ran 12.3's all day on bolt ons and tune back in the east. Came here and ran 12.7's and took a lot to get back down to low 12's.

Lol, what you know about the broken NLTS lol. Tom, didnt believe me haha =p

There's an easy way to see if your NLTS is engaged

Depending on your parameters set... Drive at a steady pace above 30 mph (or whatever u have set) leave the car in gear(above the rpm u have set) , hit the gas pedal to 100% throttle position, and engage the clutch, If your nlts is working the car will not rev
