Default Finally Started On My Shootout Stuff!

I actually got a little work done this weekend.

Getting ready to pull the LS7 out of Gump.


I also put the weight box and weight bar back in to meet the required race weight.

That had been the plan, but I ended up with too many things going on this year. The shopping cart will have to wait.
