Re: 2017 Dodge Challenger SXT - Mostmint #45
Hearing it start up -- without issues! -- had to feel like a pretty good win.

Re: 1979 Malibu
Ok, ok.. I ordered the dash cover. We'll see how it works. Post-race inspection revealed an upper radiator hose that was touching the heat-wrapped crossover pipe. When I first discovered it, by feel, it felt terrible, and I was amazed it hadn't blown. However, once I got it off, it probably only got...

Re: 2024 Drag Racing Stuff
I'm still grinning ear to ear after busting into the 10s with Maliboost. There was a lot of validation for the work I've done and money I've spent. New crank sensor bracket seems to be holding up perfect, I made every pass on the 2-step. My radiator setup is better than it was, and I like the smalle...

Re: 1979 Malibu
Yeah, there is a ton more potential in it! And it does go straight. Last night was soooo satisfying... And this morning, the sun is shining, the birds are chriping, my pepsi tastes just a little sweeter!! I literally picked up a full second from the fall at Dragway 42. 11.5 @ 119 (on 30x9 slicks) 10...

I'm in the 10s!
I'm just gonna leave this pic, and this video. It was an epic night at the track!! ET records were smashed, my MPH was great, there was a lot to like. This was some high quality payback for the work I've done so far. 20240529_223239.jpg Here's the 10.55 pass. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FGQHQ-rJ...

Re: new addition
What do you guys think about this?

I'd have to convert from pintle hook to a hitch thing on the front.
I like the price point and the idea it was maintained by a company.. and low fenders.

Always Carry Spare Fuses
Today was a milestone day! I engaged Scott Clark from realtuners.com to help me get Maliboost's Megasquirt dialed in. Scott is a for-real tuner. If any of you remember way back in the early-mid 2000s, the videos that blue turbo chevy pickup, awd, just crushing everything on the street, that was him....

Re: new addition
I know what you mean on used trailers. I've been looking a lot, $2500 would be a nice price point, but you're right. A lot of garbage.
Trailer tires arent much different than car tires, why wouldn't they need to be balanced?

what a weekend!
I had a very solid Tiresmoke weekend.. Saturday morning, Dad and I made our annual trek to Linesville, PA for the Bair's Corvette show. We've been going pretty regularly since 2007. The last trip, which I think was 2022, ended with the Corvette coming home on the back of flatbed with failed points a...
