Bring it out April 1st. Thats when I usually take mine out. It's the 1st official day of the racing season.
And I agree, With all the BS talked last year between you and Harb.... You guys will definentaly have to do a 1 time motor to motor pass!

James I could get in depth about why stuff fails. It's part of my job. I can tell you that my 12 bolt in my Camaro whined more than a 8 y/o girl but it held together and never failed on me. I just had to tighten up the pass side bolts for the retaining bolts that hold the axle in the end housing.

Yeah I agree, I was going to last year too but decided not to and I am really glad that I didnt. Too many drunk idiots running into cars and breaking into them, etc.

I saw one kid run up the hood,roof,and trunk of multiple cars that were parallel parked
