| You'll need to get that 60' down below 2 seconds. that will be tough to do. Are you using Drag radials?

| Very difficult if not impossible. I couldn't do it when my car was a 13 second ride. Need sticky tires.

| Anyone interested in my performance parts? I got all the rare ones.
Got the front and rear bars. The STS strut tower brace. The coveted Eibach lowering springs.
20k miles on a rebuilt engine by a master GM tech. AA can corroborate the master tech part. Same guy did his engine.
Everything in my signature is up to date.
The car handles super well and has tons of power. Either going to get to a fellow enthusiast or hold on to it forever...
