    But now my buddy in the neon is running low 11s on a completely stock motor which is pretty impressive considering he pretty much doubled the stock hp and this car is still his daily driver.
    It takes a while to learn how to launch with all that torque. We have to feather the clutch all the way into 2nd gear otherwise we lose too much to wheel spin. I have a set of street slicks on order. That should help quite a bit, even in stock trim at this altitude.

    I've chatted with a guy here who picked his up in Chicago and drove it out here. He says the performance at sea level is much stronger.
