On snap. The 245/45/17s don't rub (once I raised the Flex's up nearly an inch )

More or less at the moment. I guess I need to get those 255/40 tires so I can lower the car a bit more

Here's a pic from before I had to raise it up.



If I "launched" (and I use that term lightly) from anything harder than a granny launch from a stop, I would rub in the back badly.

Aw, I thought it was going to be an ESP Camaro.

Maybe he should just go straight to CP to compete with Lucas and two CP Mustangs.

Any pictures yet? I'm still attempting to squeeze a couple more pennies out of my back side for event two/three, so I can be on new rubber.

Anybody know who currently has the fender rolling tool?

Thanks, figured I'd try the proper tool before going with the hammer.

I bet they add more power than the high flow cat I'm adding. I'm hoping to see a little better spool too though.

I've been sort of eyeballing the Rallitek PerfectPower6 ECU. . . it looks like that with a tune and high flow cat might net me a fair gain, from the testimonies I've been reading. . .
