Yea but what were they running? I would assume they would be cool within reason. But if your boys are running low elevens are better a cage isn't out of the question. I would think at least a helmet once you are mid twelves are better. That is being easy on people. the rules are tighter than that.

yea it went to aberdeen, ms saturday (drove it up there & back) i lost 2nd gear somewhere on the way up but it runs pretty damn well going from low to high. kinda like a glide i think the jw valvebody is causing the problem, i'm probably gonna get a king transbrake v-body for it. then i will leave off the brake at 4k+ on the 200shot

I have been missing the power steering lately. Ever since the manual rack went in it just doesnt feel the same. The tires rub when in a full turn even with spacers and the steering wheel shakes like crazy.

I am fine with the turning, it is all the problems that came up with the adding of the manual rack that has me down.

Well the steering wheel shakes like crazy and even with spacers the front rims rub on the tie rods when you make hard turns.

I am proably going to the track today. dont think I will run the car since I don"t even have a helmet but you never know.
