Touche. I guess we'll have to try again with the new setup...but I had to split that Banana all over I-10. Maybe James will get motivated to finish his and then he can come out and vindicate you and Dayton.

I was hoping I'd be good to go this weekend, but had a few parts of my new combo not fit quite right, so I had to send some things back to get sorted. Hoping to be operational next weekend.

No rush for me, Scott. I'm in the middle of fishing season out of South Padre Island. I'm missing this week's race in Baytown, but I'd like to run when I get things squared away. I think you'll get me slightly on a roll so maybe we can do 1 at the track and one on the street and keep it off here till after the results.

Sounds good Mark. I'm down for roll or dig. Obviously I will need to actually learn this car at the track better so that should be fun as long as nothing shatters out back.

I have the Pfadt large sway bar package, had LG custom build me a set of G2 coilovers for drag racing, and we have the ProEFI I-boost 2-step in the car that will need to get sorted properly....but hopefully if everything starts to come together after a few test passes I can get this car to work from a dig pretty decent on these tires and some traction control. Sucks I'm missing this weekend, would have been a great practice session. Oh well.

Well, that's a lot of stuff, Scott. You'll definetly stomp me eitherway as I'll probably be on 19's on the street and track for now with no traction control except my right foot. Sounds like it should be a beast!

Yea, who knows. I just want to have some fun with the car, but I can't seem to start tearing it apart to change ****. Hopefully this latest round of crap will keep me satisfied a bit longer, but who knows. Hopefully now that the weather is cooling off we can get a decent group of us together for some fun runs.
