That is a steal, I can't remember the last time I filled a bottle that cheap. I might have to put 2 kits on my Formula after all.

I already talked to Mitchell, but when you guys are ready, I'd love to throw the truck on the dyno to get some base numbers.

Hey guys, Im from MN and am looking to move to Spencer, this is pretty much my only hobby so is there anything to do down there? From what i can find Marion SD is the closest track at 125miles, Ive been there a few times, and cedar falls is 130 miles the other way. or are there other tracks hiding out in IA somewhere?

I see most of you are from the east side

I have a feeling there will be some real gems out there. Definitely bring it.
I'm prepared for the "oh god, it's another Mustang..." or "This is supposed to be for old cars..."
