I might head up there if I get some sleep tonight. It's been a while since I've been up there. I'm going up there in full street trim though because I don't think I'll be setting any records in this heat.

I'll be up there before they open if I go so come say hey if you see me (pewter Z28).

Bobby

Bring it up there Steve make that cam earn it's place under your hood.

I would Bobby but I can't see anything changing except more wheel spin with street tires ..I learned a long time ago that this car just won't hook on these street tires...this oppressive heat will not help the situation any either..it just kills HP production...a 200 mile round trip..I haven't found a plus in this formula yet...I need to put the other gears in the rear end too...I'll pass..I would llike to see what it would run but that probably won't happen until the fall when the weather is more friendly...you know it aint no race car anyway...it just has to haul my phatt a$$ around.. ..spray a mustang or ricer for me bro..

You just need to feather it out of the hole a little. Hell, I'm going to be spraying on street tires.

My car sin't a race car either. I understand where you're coming from though. We'll have to cruise up there when the weather gets cooler but for now, I just want to let off some steam and have some fun.

I bolt my tranny back up Saturday... Just paid $1150 + tax for the rebuild. Then it'll be dyno tuned at GMMG the following weekend. After that you'll see me there asap trying to break my stuff one more time.
