Default Slowly making progress on the YS Trim project car

Brief update, SS Racing has the car and Chris has removed the ABS, power steering, and relocated the alternator to the passenger side.

Bracket materials on en route and the bracket should be made very soon.

We have a local track rental at US41 on 7/26 that we want to make with the car.

I should add that they are making custom brackets that will mount the blower low like the LT1 setup.

Track rental varies, anywhere from $900 to $1500 depending on car count and whether we VHT ($100 a lane).

John, are you going to try to hit the Camaroz28.com race in Stanton MI? It's not that far of a drive - about an hour east of Grand Rapids. There should be some big dogs there, too. I have heard bamfords saying they are bringing the twin TE-63 GN...

No, www.MFBA.org has a track rental at US41 on the same Saturday.

I'm not a huge GN guy so I don't really follow them that much.
