Thanks Lance, the truck really has done very well. Not even the around the track stuff, just staying in one piece. I have to say coming from a love of the LS engine that this engine is pretty fantastic. It is very docile around town and has excellent driveability. Just the truck staying together, no leaks of anykind to speak of and its a great driver. Probably my personal favorite of all the cars I have built so far.

I plan on it. I am going to attend his class in Ohio before the Goodguys event in July, hoping to get some good info on setup, since I really know very little it should be fun =)

Looks good and I'm glad you're hooked!

Will do. Yes, 450f/250r springs still. I know I need stiffer springs but love how it rides on the street. Starts to blend the line between street car and track car. Maybe stiffer springs and soften up the coilovers on the street?
Went and picked up the KTM from my buddies house the other night in the f100. Whats nice is you dont really need a ramp to get it in or out
Shooting for autocross out in the gorge on Saturday.
See if I can get the brakes all cleaned up again, they are glazing over after a track day.
