It's almost ready to go

Things that are done

-Stupid tire smoking power :thumbsup:
-Hang you in your belt brakes :thumbsup:
-Tuned JRI shocks to optimize grip :thumbsup:
-Spring bar balance :thumbsup:
-No leaks :thumbsup:

Thing that need work

-Bleed brakes again. All new systems are hard to bleed
-I over acheived on oil cooling need to rework to get temp in the oil
-Nut and bolt the car and look for broken stuff
-Get the rubber and brake dust out of the wheel wells

We ran about 25 laps very hard. We had a few issues due to a brand new car

-One loose accy bolt on the engine
-Some loose wires that coused a ABS falt and 4 flat spotted tires

On a simular test day with Red Devil we are 2 seconds a lap faster. Mayhem has so much power you can hear the tires spinning in 4th gear going down the back straigh due to track being rough. I think we have hit my power limit for 200 treadwear tires on a 40 degree day...:cheers:

Also a bunch of great guys came out to the track to play. So it was a great day to test car and hang out with some othe Lat-G member. They also kicked in to help me pay for the track. Thanks Guys.

Well back to the shop. The car ships in a week and a half.

This is a gorgeous car!! one of the sexiest 67's I've seen in a while. And to have that motor......Oh man I can't imagine what thats like to have that motor in a 1st gen. The track pics are awesome. Good Luck!

Looks amazing, Mark. Thank for all the pics, Gordon... :lateral:

John

Awesome track shots!

Mark the car looks awesome!!!! The color combo worked out great ! Glad to have a tinnie tiny part in it!!!

I know I asked earlier in the build but it was undecided @ that point.... What wheel/tire sizes did you wind up with when tested?

Just :wow: Love the car Mark! Congrats on a smooth shake down...
