You note in your build if you continue you will likely need to do a lot of upgrades and honestly with what you have already done you can do just a few things and she will rock and roll with the best of them.Go out and have fun and then look at the simple things that help you go faster --- wheels, tires, solid brake pads, good track alignment , camber plates. That is really about all you really need with all you have done already.

Well, actually I can't take any credit yet. The car is as stock as they come when you by a Roush Stage 3. It comes with all the goodies I listed, and more. At this point I really need to just learn how to harness the power. I've had some hotrods in my day, but this one is the strongest runner i've driven to date. The one I'm selling is an 01" GT that I built from the ground up. However, its more of a hybrid between road racer, and drag car. It's lowered 2" with all aftermarket racing suspension more for road racing, but is an automatic with a built trans and stall convertor for those quick launches out of the hole.
