Man this is getting increasingly difficult to post an a regular basis. Getting the T/A prepped for the BULLRUN from Montreal to Key West. Getting all of the things prepped for this haulin *** run. I am in contact with so many people to get involved in this event it is crazy. This whole time I am also trying to run the dealership's.
Crazy!!!!!! Thanks for all of the support for my daughter and myself we really appreciate this. I will be getting some pics posted soon.

KEEP it REAL

Mike

Hey mike just wanted to say great job . I know taking that dirt raod was hard as I too have taken my T/A down a dirt road , my 82 Silverado lowrider handles that better ! I have to admit there have been times I have wondered how you are going to do in the race . However for some reason I feel that the T/A your daughter and you will do well . Oh and kick some a** on the way to Key West !!!

Which other drivers from SpikeTV's BullRun are going to be in to the "big" BullRun from Montreal to Key West? Mike, are you taking the red T/A or the orange one from your casting video?

Hey Mike,
I just wanted to say again that you and Morgan have done an awesome job representing the F-Body! What are you doing to prep the T/A for the big BullRun? Are you changing your setup much, or will it be similar to what we are seeing on Spike?

Yes we are changing all the fluids and putting in all synthetic. Changing the brakes and rotors, putting in some BMR panhard bars and torsion bar with loop, going with 323 rear gear instaed of 342. granatelli radiator if they can make it in time new GOODYEAR F-1 supercar tires. dual k-40's with blue tooth and laser jammers. Double din radio w navagation and GPS instant tracking. Lots of other cool stuff as well

hey Mike, with that cam, shouldn't you have a bigger gear... IE 3.73???

As far as rotor, i have cross drilled and slotted rotors with Hawk pads.. man they are the best.. i have beaten on my car some and they have not warpped yet. Granite i also put them on last June and they have about 10K miles on them

Good Luck
