Cash's Ride
My car is always a work in progress. Last year at TDR I went 15.10 with bald tires and badly needing a tuneup. This year I hope to get into the 12's with all the upgrades i'm doing. New heads, LT4 hotcam is going in with 1.6 rockers. Gonna top the engine off with a new holley stealth ram. Taking out the old exhaust and putting in a 3-3.5 inch catback. Just put on 4 brand new nitto extreme performance tires.
