Steve,
I drove the Vette on Monday with it's first set of street tires (18" Michelin Pilot Sports that are about 3 years old) just to see how the car is going to act on streets and begin to adjust brake bias and adjust the suspension. Well let just say the car is a BEAST, big fun! The aluminum big block is a kick in the pants.

I would love to take my 66 Chevelle out to the event, but can't afford the trip. (Randy Johnson's 66 Chevelle) I have been having a blast running the auto-X at some of the shows, good luck to you all.

We got the turn signals working... now the brake lights don't work!


Chris at BOS thinks theres something wrong with the boads (LED) where one circut is fried so we can have brakes or turn signals.. but not both.

I will call Monday to see if we can get another set next day air shipped.


It's always something...

Oh, my alternator was junk.. I called Powermaster and had another sent overnight.. they sent one for a V6...
