street racing is stupid! What are you trying to prove? that you are faster than a kid in a wheelchair? Take it to the track and get a slip to show for your efforts.

off the box.

Rotors, get stock solid ones. Pads, the autozone carbon metalic units are nice. Warrantied for life! They made a nice difference in CJs truck. Also be sure to flush the system, bleed the brakes and adjust up the rear drums.

news flash!

V6, 4x4 = dog!

as said, what are you going to beat? A mustang? no. camaro? no. Honda? only the insight, but that might be a good race.

ummm hmm if you dont have any suggestions for brakes..go away..actually i beat hondas all the time and will hang with mustangs from 35 mph races.

to me v6 4x4= challange to work on

to you v6 4x4= afraid to wrok on cuz you might have to get your hands dirty.

if you think your such a hot shot drive over here and race me then big boy.

you hang with mustangs? HAHA only 4cyl or the old v6s! The new v6 cars can dip into the high 14s. Tell me now, can your truck do that? The v8 stangs dip into the high 13s and the cobras are solid 13 cars.

I already gave you advice. take it or leave it.

You know you can always beat the other car when they are not racing you! HAHA
