I had the car out for its first shakedown at club day. I didn't get a full run in (desperately needs an antisway bar). In fact -- I didn't even get to drive it because of the rain. But, here are a couple of vids:

Thanks. Now if I can get the rear suspension dialed in, I can make some decent runs. I guess an 11.12 @ 129 ain't bad for an aborted first shakedown run . . . lol

Car sounded BADASS! Did you have power steering fluid issues on your first attempt?

No . . the tranny was just overfilled a bit and puked a little fluid when the car backed up. We took out some trans fluid in the pits and it was all good.

When I did the motor, I got a Flaming River manual rack and a Strange manual brake conversion from Skinny Kid Racing. There are only two belts on the motor . . . fuel pump and alternator (both cog driven). The motor is a 15:1 compression, alcohol powered, World Man o War 427.

the stock rear end had a lot of oil spots from the trip home, it definitely is going to need a complete upgrade or a 9" along with some adjustable uppers and shocks. Also, the upper mounts to the body will need some reinforcement.

A fun day, glad to see a good turnout inspite of the cloudy weather!
