maybe sometimes, its so hard to!

From a recent photoshoot with UFC heavyweight Champ Josh Barnett (Super Friendly Gearhead as well!). He stood in the center of the parking lot while I did donuts around him. I was NOT going to risk getting my jaw broken!





I've got a new front aluminum splitter coming from Jakes Rod shop and some other Vintage Trans am goodies from Jake as well!



Then its time to Cage the car... I need a fuel pump as well. My holley blue is so loud and obnoxious!

yup. Thanks for asking! Its being flogged weekly

I recently had the TKO600 pulled to replace a bad pilot bushing and bleed the clutch. The clutch/shifting is MUCH better now and its much more enjoyable to drive.



Pilot bushing in its bad state!:


The Holley blue fuel pump is taking a dump on me. I had to smack it with a hammer to get it running the other day, so I ordered an Aeromotive 11209.

I'm contemplating swapping my leaky fuel tank (throught he vent when full) for a Aeromotive 340 submersed fuel pump/stainless tank. There have been times when I have pushed the gas in the tank past the pickup, stalling the motor. Never on the track though, its always when flipping a u-turn or something.... The baffles in the aeromotive stealth tank would help. But I'm not sure its worth the upgrade. Any issues with the 11209 and I'm going to replace the fuel system front to back with aeromotive AN.

I recently got a fresh set of Toyo R888s for this track season, and a new sticker to mess with the hipster kids in my neighborhood





I've got a random rear seat/trunk/leaf spring clunk that I can't track down. I believe it may be the torsion bars that hole the trunk lid up as the rubber is gone off them. I've been trying to track down the issue but have yet to convince someone to ride in the trunk

I still have the Aluminum front spoiler from Jake's rod shop, but don't believe I'll be mounting it except for track days. Latest pic with the dogs:

Been really working hard on the whole multicopter/drone business. I've got a few now that SHOULD be able to follow me around an entire track and keep me in focus the entire time. I can set the height, distance, and angle at which the camera points at the car. As long as I have a bluetooth enabled smartphone in the car, the drone will follow and record.

I have a track event coming in March out at chuckwalla. I am looking forward to stretching its legs.

Driving it around LA is so frustrating with the traffic

[Vince@Meanstreets]

its all part of it Dane.

Love the bumper sticker too!


Did you ever put up pictures of your Linc on here?

[Justin@EntropyRad]

I WANT THAT DECAL

The pic with all the trans pieces is pretty slick!

Ive just sat here n read the whole thread, love your car...
Big thanksfor getting onto the 17" minilites. What size did you get ???
Ive been trying to track down a set for ages, but only found ET & Vintage wheels,....sorry the look wasnt right for me either.
Im chasing a pair of 17x8s for the front n 19x9s or9.5s for the rear..
Im probably being rude but could you tell me the cost ???

Regards
AL.
