  • All convertables come on in........

    Are your cars really slow too? My best stock time was a 16.660, after 3.42's,160 thermo,whisper lid,k and n,!MAF,FTRA....My best is still 15.9.Thats still slower than most peoples stock times????? Ive got 18 inch rims ,full body kit,ss hood and a bunch of other stuff I once prized but now ( after being bitten by the speed bug ) consider a bunch of worthless heavy bull sh**.Im guessing100-150 pounds of extra crap.Is this why Im sooo ssllooww.... Or are your convertables slower than stock too?

    convertables have more body flex (bad for launches) and more weight (frame connections under the car to attempt to add rigidity)

    This will add a bit more time

      just 18's alone are going to kill your time... especially if they're chrome. that's not just weight... that's rotating mass

      i bet you cut a few tenths off if you lose those

        My car feels faster than my coupe did. I'm thinking i got a factory freak or something.

          Yea I think I got a factory reject, thanks for rubbing it in... Just kidding. Seriously most people dream of one day being in the 13's or even 12s. I dream of high 14's.See what I mean?
