Wow, nice car Pap !

 

Are you planning on any comparisons before/after you rebuild the engine?

 

Any video??
I'd say F355 in stock form can do 12.9's in quarter mile
Bring the 60ft down to 1.8 or so and it will be 12.9's

 

Cheers mate.

 

Daniel, what tyres are you using?

 

1.8xx would be nearly impossible for a stock 355 on street tires, IMHO.
