Hello,

I bought my GTO about 26 months ago. I have bought and installed some very minor mods.

I am hoping to break into the 14’s at the strip this fall under cool weather.

Here are some pics.

Thanks,

Newb

holy hell,  
with your trap mph I would hope you have at least 14’s!!! more time at the track and some attention to the rear tires (sticky, or aired down) and you should have well below 14.00  
good luck, maybe I’ll see you at prp (assuming thats where you race)

I can assure you he’s not the doctor…

Oh, and I don’t wanna speak for him, but I’m pretty sure he has more ‘go’ on the way… 🙂

Edit: I guess I should make an introduction post too. I signed up here over a year ago and forgot.
