    Stock ....for now....this thing isn't until Sept so it may be all the extra motivation I get on the mod train

    Any idea what I could expect over 1/2 mile run stock? More around top speed vs. time ....

    Cool, get a nice tune on there and let 'er rip! APR seems to be top dog, but damn that's a price tag....wait on one sec while I get my fire suit on....the REVO tune has a lot of bang for the buck, just run it on the less aggressive side unless you have time to fine tune the fuel map...

    Here are some numbers for reference....

    Have to agree, very tempting... should be fairly cool in September too. The RS is not enjoying this 100+ degree weather in Nashville.

    true. I gave up running at Music City Raceway until September at least - there's just no way I can get decent times with air this hot. I'm in DC on business, and it sucks just as bad here. All I care about now is how strong the A/C is.

    If you're seriously thinking about it, we could caravan down to GA together....

    If you are thinking of coming, take note of 6:45am start time Sat morning....it's 90 mins northeast of ATL, so I am booking a hotel room up in Clayton for Fri night

    That would be cool; will have to see what the wife thinks... if there are some other attractions that interest her (because I know this one would not) might be able to swing it.

    Would be nice if this were a little longer than 1/2 mile though... I'd like about 5 miles, see what 170 feels like.

    Pretty sure Safe4now saw 170 at the Texas Mile so no need for a 5mile straight.

    170 in a mile. That is impressive in anyone's book!

    I wonder if cracking 150mph could be done in half a mile. I suppose there's only one way to find out

    I bet it'd be pretty close.

    I have yet to see 170. I have seen mid 160's a couple times. Many thoughts go through your mind. Like tire integrity.
