Ha, I don't even know if it's working or not. Plus, I like to think I do fine without it.

LOL, I used to love that hidden cup holder, too.... before it broke. Now it can't hold anything without falling out. I wouldn't put too many of those big drinks in there. I think I put the Rt 44 Sonic slush in there a few too many times.

Have you figured out a time Chris?

I have everything but the gaskets right now. Manifold gaskets are coming Thursday and no idea on the plenum spacer gasket. Right now, I'm leaning toward Thursday (maybe Friday). Planning on starting around 10 am so I can be finished by mid-afternoon with everything taking my time.

I have a worrisome squeak coming from the passenger front every time I turn the steering wheel so I need to figure that out, hopefully tomorrow.

Kinetix upper control arm. Spray white lithium grease on the ball stud and you're good to go (I speak from experience ).

Yeppers, remember to get your unwrapped gift and at least 2 non-perishable food items....also bring some cash....I don't think they take checks or Debit/CC cards.

I'm guessing you drag race? What's your 60' look like?

edit - LAWL, I offered to help but I'm going to retract it. I would only attempt it on my car as I'm not confident enough to do it on anyone else's. It looks like it's quite a bit of work to install, imo, and you'll need to fabricate a clutch switch. I can tell you that you can launch much harder than this module will allow with some practice, though.

Thanks for the heads up on the cash, I did check and it is a CASH donation.

Does anyone want to meet at (35 and 380 ?)and drive up together. It should take about 25-30 from there to the track. Drivers meeting is at 8:30 so if we leave 380 around 7:15 well have 30 plus min to get set.

Do we want to do the Potluck? should be a nice day.

^ I'll meet you there, Scott. Just tell me the exact location and time since you know the area better.

I'm up for the potluck but the track probably has its own restaurant/concession stand as well.



BTW, it looks like my intake manifold gaskets are coming in on Friday. I'm still going t

How about we meet at the RaceTrack gas station and be ready to leave around 7:15.

Pot Luck = Food. We all bring something and have a small cookout.

Scott - Tent, table, paper towels, condiments.
