    Ima stoked. With both Turbos, new stall, boost controller, GForce1320 Cradle mod, wires that are not melted, and bead locked tires we hope to do better.
    We packed up to leave thinking the stall was the only problem. Got disabused of that when we thought we had popped the motor (did I mention car was driven 30 miles to the track and 2 miles back towards home? Car started smoking so we trailered it. Turned out the driver's side Turbo ate itself at some point during the day. Cannot believe it was an instantaneous failure, even so, looking forward to whatever comes our way. Thanks for being such a graceful host these past few years.

    Looking for alternatives to the Precision Turbos, anyone have suggestions? Actually Precision stepped up to the plate. We are pretty happy right now. Turbo is back and ready to go.

    After the shakedown, we detected a few things that we needed to improve to realize the full potential of the car. That includes a two step, boost controller, new stall, driver's side turbo, screws on the wheels for the slicks, and new front runners. We are hoping to get a GForce1320 modified cradle and solid bushings installed. Lot's of progress being made and hopefully we can get it together before the tracks shut down for the seasn.
