Yes, Manuels Z28 from RPM. I took 1 click away from the front shocks last week and it 60footed better than it has so we left it (fronts were at 9, so we lowered it to 8 to let it transfer a little better). We showed up Friday unloaded off the trailer and locked in a bet for 500 against Troy with out making a test hit but looked at the track/cars and it looked like the track was going away so we figured it would be fine. He did his burn out and as soon as it left, it stood straight up on the bumper shifted and it came down and came around him. He is supposed to run them tonight for a little more but he is going to make a few test hits to make sure it's tied down and doesn't do that again.

Edit- everything is fine, just BARELY scraped one of the mufflers on it. Come stop by if you see us tonight.

That is what he said.... I said put some bars on it and spray it to the moon... but I am sure he can make the limiters work.
