  1. Very Nice...

     

    Good choice going with red, one of my favorite colors. I like it with the black wheels. I would just lower it a little and drive it, it'll look sweet with an aggressive stance.

     

    Way to jump over to Ford Club...:)

  2. I need to pick your brain about our GN if you have some time.

     

    Mentioned earlier, we got a killer deal on a 2012 model between the end of the model year and 2highpsi working his magic.

     

    No problem, should be at a few C&C's as my schedule allows.

  3. I went 7.79@195 pedaling on one pass... On that pass my 1/8 was a 5.25@142... Thats 53 mph out the back. The 7.68 pass would have been 205+ had it been clean.

     

    Car is getting twin chutes this week and will be back out soon for a low 7@200+

     

    What weight are you at ?

     

    Are you running on a 315/60 Drag Radial ?

     

    Awesome car !

  4. very nice car.

     

    what was the reason for the hole in the trunk?

     

     

    Thanks...

     

    I hole in the trunk has a cover that is held on with Dzus Fastners. It allows access to make shock and anti-roll bar adjustments at the track. I had the cover off to make some adjustments to drive the car on the on the street, just didn't put it back on.

     

    It was good to get together with everyone Sat. at C&C. There was alot of nice cars and a variety of different cars to check out. Looking forward to showing up again soon.

  5. Hey Mike,

     

    Looks like ya let the cat out of the bag with this bad boy, what a motor. Could ya hurry up and get it finished already, I've got the perfect test car to slide it down in. You know I want to do a Mod Motor, I guess this old thing will do...:D

  6. I'd like to give props to Mike Ward and his Crew for the use of his Chassis Dyno this past Sat. Mike and his Crew were very helpful with setting up a new tune-up for our current build, which has been a tough one to sort out so far. We originally put our car on Mike's Chassis Dyno back a few months ago, it was about a 12 hour session. Mike let us use his dyno all day long and didn't put any pressure on us to hurry up as we had a out of town tuner along to tune the Blow-Thru Carb.

     

    After several corrections were made to the combination, Mike made the offer to use his Chassis Dyno to save some time taking the car to track to set the baseline for the new set-up. Again, it was a long day. Mike worked with us all day long to help us get a baseline to work with for the new set-up. We made several changes to the Blow-Thru Carb during the session, which is no quick process. Mike gave us as much time as we needed to sort out the new tune-up and was a big help with getting the combination going the right direction.

     

    I would highly recommend to anyone needing help with their tuning contact Mike to help with your car. His prices is very fair and he'll make sure you get the power your combination has to offer. Mike has a ton of experience to offer if your looking for a new combination for your car...

  8. Probably a stupid question, but was planning on going to Kilcare tomorrow and remembered a while back I picked up a nail and have a plug in one of my rear tires. The tire is in good condition other than the plug, and while I know it's not the best idea in the world, can I run with a plug? Or will they not pass me on tech?

     

    Pass tech...Now that's a funny one...they have drive thru tech...:eek: I doubt they would notice if you even had tires...
