I am currently running 40 Dells, but am thinking of trying 45s. Is anyone using 45s? If so, what jets are you running?

Warren, Trust me on this. If your car is a narrow body, and as I recall it is, you've got all you can handle tucked back there. It will take you a year to learn how to hang on to the car. You'll be going so fast at the end of the straight you will look like a monkey having sex with a football just trying to gather it together to get around the corner. Enjoy the Dells. To go to 45's, you need P&P heads or something from Len's LE series and a seriously good exhaust. Drive it for a year and see if I'm not right.

My 2432 overcame 30+ years of autocross skills in narrow body form. I had already planned on going to the flares but it felt necessary with all that power. I just couldn't get enough tire under there.

You're right Rob. My narrow body is a handful to this newbie on the track. I plan to add slicks to my bucket list to help. I've got flares and 5 studs waiting in the garage, but I plan to take it one thing at a time. Thanks for your input.
