I was gonna see if you wanted to bring the pop-up. I have a smaller one I can bring. Shade is highly dependent on where you park.

Yeah, I have a couple other people coming. I think the best idea is to meet up here, then we all roll-in together so we're parked next to each other.

My house 10am?

It's gonna be a hot one, weather forecast says Sunny/91.

Is this the supercharged version? I figure you'd have mentioned if it was, but..

I get it -- I just want to make some passes, shake off the stink of last week.

I love the Union Jack in the taillights. What did Amy think of it in person?

It pulls like crazy, its a super fun car to race. Very happy with what I've created. I just wanna go some rounds with it now. I'm planning on going out again on Wed.

I took Maliboost out for my first trip of the season to Thompson. First trip. In July.

I drove it there, no issues. I made my first pass of the season, a respectable 10.18 @ 133 in the heat. I bumped the rev limiter in 1st, probably should've gone a touch quicker. But the big problem came when it ...

Tough night for me at the track tonight.. I got there and made 1 pretty good pass. I got my timeslip, found a parking spot in the pits, and my car wouldnt restart after that. It would crank/fire/die. I had to throw in the towel and called Mason & Healy for a tow home.

Drove it there, no issues ...

Paul and I are thinking about heading out for the first time tomorrow, July 2.

Hope to see some of you there!

The annual Chester Car Show at the church on 306 is Sat July 12. I'm planning on going and my cousin asked if he could drive the '63 there. A few pics from last year.

I missed the shifter conversation. My 90Vette has a short-throw shifter with a large-ish ball shifter. Sometimes I'm not sure if I like the short-throw, or maybe because my trans can be a little finicky, esp going into 3rd. Your shift handle looks a lot taller than mine.

This assembly was engineered for functionality with almost zero consideration for assembly and disassembly.


The issue with these mounts is that they fail under tension which only happens on a lift. It can be quite catastrophic, but knowing the design flaws of your car allows you to work around ...

Oil + filter, tire rotation, brake inspection (all good), brake line inspection (all good), new inner/outer tie rods and an alignment. I had the work done at Chesterland Auto Care (formerly Dons CARS)

It still needs some tires, the outsides got abnormally worn on the fronts (now on the rear ...

I've been driving the wheels off this thing lately, and I'm loving it! I made some tuning changes with the idle timing and accel-enrich that effect the tip-in and it has made a noticeable difference to me. It used to be hard to leave a stop smoothly, and whaddyaknow, taking away some timing there ...
