    And in case anyone is wondering, my tires are almost completely bald. The wear bars are almost gone in the center, and that's why I'm having a hard time moving forward instead of sideways heh

    If my rear C5z wheels will fit on your car, you're more than welcome to try them. They're 315 hankook RS2s on 18x10.5's (not sure if that will even clear your brakes), I was able to get a 1.8 60' out of them launching pretty soft. They're "semi-radials" so at 11psi, they worked great. I know your car has a good bit more power, but it's worth a try...

    Repiks said the weather is looking like it will hold off 'til Saturday night.

    I appreciate it man, but I'm not a big drag racer. I wanted to see what I could do with the car, how I drive it on a daily basis. I'm also probably gonna put it up for sale next week, so there's no sense in adding wear and tear on it and possibly damaging something or wrecking.

    I still MIGHT come down, but more than likely I won't.
