For its size, the Max is not that heavy of a car.

Hi Black96max

I made my first trip to the track on 14 Apr 02 my best time was 16.203 at 85 mph.

On 11 May 02 I ran 13.8 at 100. Of course I spent a few bucks in the meantime and did a lot of reading and experimenting but what you ran is pretty good considering.

Just do your homework, decide what mods you want to make, save up the money and do it.

Good Luck
Jim

BTW I am still only 15.4 N/A

Your car is not slow. Look at your 60' and look at mine. You're not hooking up good off the line.
