From reading this thread I figured there were already at least a few LV heavy hitters running 12s.

Nope, I'm in Orlando, but I get out that way a few times a year for trade shows and such. I was just watching this thread to see what FairLady got out of his car. After seeing the all the negative response to his set-up from LV guys earlier in the thread I figured there must be some pretty stout cars out there.

LOL...My bad. I'm to lazy to look back and the beginning of the thread to see what exactly was said, but I sure did not mean to dog anyones setup. To each his own.
Can't wait to see what you do to your new xB when you get to Vegas.

Not sure whose nuts you're suggesting, but there were some serious doubts about that setup from a logical standpoint. It's too bad he wasn't able to complete the project due to cost (which any f/i guy will tell ya is the first killer of dreams) cause I would have loved to have been proved wrong, but all's well that ends well. Guy's gonna be gettin an Xb, so that should be fun to watch.
