We have a little cruse in here in Detroit on Sat. mornings. It is a 8 - 10 am deal so I took Charley's car. It was a lot of fun and the car was a big hit.

Always a unique blend of cars.

After the car show I went to Stenods to keep sorting out JA.

We bolted it down to the chassis dyno to verify all system (cooling, fuel pump, intercooler system) were all working correct.

It was awsome. Joe put te dyno in drive simulation and we were able to work out all the drivability issues in the shop. Make quick tune ups and WOT runs with no speeding tickets.

Well after about 70 hours of thrashing on JA over the last 6 days I took it out to cruise Woodward Saturday and Sunday night. I put over 200 miles on it and it is a kick to drive. The LS9 is awesome. Great drivability. Idles at 650 rpm. The instant torque is crazy. A guy in a hopped up 5.0 Mustang jumped me from a 30 mph roll. Naturally I hit JA. Not used to the instant torque I blew to tires off and the Mustang got a jump on me. Once I gained traction I blew by him with a lot of authority. The noise and tire smoke show got me a big thumps up...
