I was just being a smart ass. I'm sure you can do it with the right downforce issues addressed. I definately want to see the video, that would be cool.

nobody likes a smart ass .... LOL I actually got the joke, and posted the pic to get the thread back on track.. not to school you...

and ill definately look for a stewardess... even if i dint hit 187 mph, i think i would find the company potentially enjoyable

Well to that fast you will need atleast 525 to the GROUND.Also lok at some sort of splitter for the front and a defuser for the rear if you plan on playing.Any rotating weight needs to be as lite as poss. and keep in mind WHERE the weight is.ie.close to centerline.Spolilers are nice but look more to the promod style.any rake more than 10 degrees takes hp.Free up internal as much as poss by pullies HEAT,and or aero mods.Also if you plan on play at speed for a while look at a diff and trans coolers.Stan

PS if anyone wonders about me,I run a 99 lightning at speeds over 160 in openroad events with a top speed in excess of 180.And all while still street legal.

wow.. that will take more power than i can safely extract from a stock bottom end ls1, even with turbo....
