Thumbs up Congrats to Flashgordon (Mitch) ...
For running his car at the Dragstrip yesterday night running pump gas and street tires on 19" HRE wheels ... AND ... breaking the record for a GS4.

He only had two runs.

1st run ... 12.4s ET @ 117mph.
2nd run ... 12.00s ET @ 120mph.

I believe Mitch now officially holds the new record for a GS4. Especially for Pump gas and normal daily driven street tires.

that's what I like to see. 12.00s are very fast for a big heavy GS.

how fast will it go with slicks?
