Well I have 50 days! I have a VIP ticket to drag race on Woodward Ave @ Roadkill Nights. I'm not satisfied with my 14.1 @100mph 1/4 mile time, I want to go faster....on a budget
I have a plan...sorta.
I need D.O.T drag radials, and I honestly don't want to get more rims (don't have the space)
I researched and apparently 245/40 R18 & 265/40 R18 drag radials fit on stock G8 GT wheels... so will they work on the stock steelies?
I need to do the DOD/AFM delete, and I'm considering going all out and doing the whole kit and tune. What cam should I run for a safe, daily driven car? Approximately how much does this cost to get done?
Redoing the exhaust for the last time, and going with Solo Mach balanced cat back. Not sure if I'm doing the headers, if I do Long Tubes the check engine light comes on right?
Any other mods suggested to make the car go faster? This is all I have in mind so far...

I'll be doing an updated test pass at the local drag strip this weekend.Dragstrip Registration Rules & Regulations
