So this summer I was knocking down some laps at MPH and going around corner 5 started hearing some noise coming from engine. Not taking any chances loaded the car and headed home to see what was going on…well come to find out ended up blowing a head gasket and filling 3 cylinders full of water. The engine bay was dripping wet with antifreeze and a pain in the butt to clean up. Well got her back together a couple weeks before the KC goodguys and she’s running better than ever.
While at KC doing the autocross I just couldn’t seam to break that 30 second mark so I gave the keys to Kevin Miller and Kyle Tucker to see if they could break the 30 second mark. I didn’t get a video of Kevin but did get one with Kyle. Oh and did I mention that I couldn’t get my 10 year old son out of my car!!! I didn’t even get to ride along with Kevin or Kyle because Zach jumped in the car before I could. Here’s a quick video of Kyle and Zach doing the GG autocross.
So I ended up buying a fays2 watts link for my car in hopes for better traction. I’m also thinking about a strong arms and adjustable coil over shocks for this winters upgrades.
Craig that looks like a pretty sweet setup! Sounds like you need to talk with Natha and get some driving lessons at Hastings, that lady can flat out drive!

I think I just need a faster car!! We'll see you Saturday.
Im in about same situation as you with an ultra clean and 100 % numbers matching car that i cant come to tearing apart!!! Bolt on 's are a possibility as i could keep its value and easily turn it back if wanted.
Inspiring.
