Default Doesn't get much closer

I hit the track again last night in my '04 GTO after almost a year away. It took a few passes to get my mojo down, mostly on launches, but I eventually got it back. Had a hard time hooking up off the line. They were also alternating between the traditional tree and the pro tree which kind of threw me off. Best run of the night was 12.28@110 on a DA of 550ft.

The highlight of the night was a run I made against a mid '70s Duster. I love the adrenaline burst you get by being bumper to bumper with someone all they way down the 1/4.

Hopefully one day soon the machine shop will finish up the engine for my '68 and I'll be able to see what it will put down.

Thanks. It's the JHP type 2 lip spoiler that covers the stock spoiler holes.

Does it mount in the factory holes or just cover them up and you have to add more holes?

It mounts to the factory holes and covers the larger hole for the 3rd brake light harness on the stock spoiler.

IMO, the original style lip spoiler looks better but this one is a lot less work to install.

Here's a top view.
