I will do that. BTW i am racing at least once a week down here and these tracks are really great for hook. Mostly 1/8 mile tracks but serious action! I replaced one stock axle last week and went out last night and cut a 1.63 60 ft. on a 7.3 et run at 96mph. Turns out stock rear can take more than i thought.We are going to do some money grudge racing soon, my buddy may help me reinforce the car, as long as we can earn back some money. Sure is cool racing year round man, later Jeff.
