When you get to the low elevens in the quarter, things get expensive. It cost's 3 times as much to get from 11.0 to 10.0 as it did to get from 14.5 to 11.0. That being said, the improvements gained by reducing a vehicles profile by an 1/8th inch or more would be an absolute bargain. Is it worth it for a 13 second car? Probably not, but for a sub 11 second car, most definately.

Take care,
