These rednecks held an event out at El Toro a few weeks ago, and for some reason they decided to pick a '69 Camaro to go to Optima this year. I really need to thank Bill, Yancy and Brian for giving me the opportunity to go out and play the day after SEMA, but now I have to get my pile ready. I'm totally ready to be crushed the resident hot shoes, i.e. Stielow, Hobaugh, or Popp, etc. However, the last thing I want to do is to get embarrassed by something like a Volkswagen Golf.

After El Toro I came away with a couple things I wanted to change to get the car a little more dialed in. This got me thinking about how much I've changed since day one. When it was first done, my end goal was to have a car that was fun to drive with my skill level behind the wheel where I didn't feel like the car was the limiting factor. While I've gotten a bit better at driving the car has come a real long way from what it first was.

While I am nowhere near as detail oriented as Brett Campbell, I figured I might as well keep everyone updated on the evolution of the car's suspension, and discuss a little bit about why I'm making the changes to the car. Hopefully it will be a learning process for all of us. If any of you guys have good suggestions I'll give them a shot. I'm start to amass a collection of springs and bars.

Oh and because you guys all like pictures, here is picture of the newest engine being assembled up at RPM in Santa Clarita.
