I had an Amish guy do mine. Put up a 36x48 with 6” of concrete in 3 days. PM me if you want his info and/or want to come look at it. He was the cheapest and was recommend by the place I ordered the barn from. Really does great work!!

Looking to get help with a couple items at work. 1. Migrating one SQL database to another server. 2. Then repointing an access program to that new server 3. Intergrating a new phone server into Access.(VBA) Our old server is already integrated and it’s by the same makers, but the code is still a touch different and beyond my abilities. That pretty much covers it. I’ve not had the best luck trying to find companies to help, I think I know more than they do, and I don’t know anything. The guy we use to use is too busy with his own business and can’t make time for it. Let me know if you or someone you know can handle these. Jason

Depending on the type of tire, can check CarlyleRacing too. Not huge markups on tires, but he’s a supporting member on the site. Worth a call!

Another great point. The suit you see on the boat is the suit you see under water. Get a colored suit and your partner might mix you up with someone else.

It’s probably a combination of things. Doesn’t show dirt as much. Absorbs more light, possibly help you stay a little warmer. Bright colors may attract fish to you on reefs. Black also hides your body better. Let’s be honest most people that can afford to scuba are not in peak physical shape, myself included, blacks gonna hide those lines better. Or simple supply and demand. Not much demand for color suits and the ones they have made sit on racks and don’t get reordered. I got black because it was the only color available.

Every CR track day I’ve ever been to, I made as many passes as I wanted. Didn’t matter if it was street tires or slicks. also fwiw, many people wouldn’t go at all if there wasn’t a slick lane. I’m bringing 3-4 cars and I wouldn’t go. PITA to get the cars to the track just to spin.

The flares look better in person, but far from good. I looked into finding a better skinny solution that didn’t have them tucked so far in, but anything would require a spacer and longer wheel studs. Plus when the wheels are tucked in, it does throw less rocks down the side of the car. So, I’ll just deal with it.

That was probably me. I think I saw you, had a couple kids in the back of your Mustang? Just finished bedding the new break pads. The stock ones were out of control with the break dust.

Indeed! Will be close, but I’m hoping to have all the crap done to it. Will probably be the cars first trip to the track with all the mods. Fat chance of an 8 second pass, but I’m sure going to try! I’m also going to yank about 250-300#s off the Hellcat. Full interior it’s best is 9.67@141 in 800DA. We’ve got it doing consistent 9.70s@143 in 2500DA. Better DA, 300 pounds shaved off. Hoping for low 9s.

I will tell you these cars drive themselves and are really easy to control. Key is to have a good set of tires and not be an idiot if you lose traction. But that’s true even if the car has 400hp. As far as weight reduction, there really isn’t a lot you can do sadly. I’ve done a bunch of research on this as I want to lighten up the Hellcat and the Demon, and there certainly isn’t any cost effective ways. $2200 for new rotors to save 22#, $700 for a battery to save 30#. Your standard stuff like lighter weight rims, once piece carbon fiber drive shaft and that’s where it stops. The suspension pieces aren’t heavy, nobody makes a different engine cradle that could possibly save 100# like the older cars. It’s just a heavy car. Gotta make up for that with power! Mush is a good guy, talked to him at Challenger Fest. He’ll probably put on a 2.5 pulley next or a different lower. That will give him another 100hp and should be knocking on 8s. That’s my plan. 2.65/Lower/E85 and cut all the weight I can. My hope is 8.90’s and drive it too and from the track. Oh... transbreak is a gimmick. Completely useless.

I took 3 spots, will be fun!

Best of the day was a 10.50@130 on the Demon. I was expecting a 10.4, so that’s pretty darn close. I went low 9’s@150+ 10 years ago with a street car and the care level is about the same. Some tracks care more than others. Some are more willing to let you slide if it’s a private event/track rental. Some don’t want you running out the 1/4 mile, are ok with 1/8th mile hits. Just don’t light the score bored up below 11.50s. Some consider a tire change not stock. Goal is to get that Demon to 8.99 this year and maintain 100% streerablity like the wife’s Hellcat. Her car is Full Interior, Audio etc... You’d never know driving around what it can do. My guess is most tracks won’t have any part of that though. You’re just not seeing a lot of these cars smashing into walls. Tire tech, automotive tech has come so far. I actually think it’s more unsafe having cars run on the track in street tires. Would you rather a Hellcat run 11.0 on those tiny radials because it’s bone stock, or that same car run a 10.2 with DR and a few mods? I’ll take the car with Drag Raidals all day.

Here are our cars a few days ago. Hellcat was flying considering the DA. Demon did about what we expected on the factory nittos. Plan is to put some ETstreet R’s and some skinnies on it for the next trip. Should pick it up considerably!!! We can’t do anything to it till the Crate computer comes in, then the real fun will begin! https://www.facebook.com/carlyleracing/posts/1859171770802441

That’s pretty awesome. My beagles can catch a rabbit once in awhile, but it takes them a couple hours! Lol. I’d say the bird is slightly more effective!

Worst plate I ever had was “UR VIEW”. I couldn’t count the number of people that asked “what if the person is in front of you?” I’m like well, I do I don’t have a front plate so....
