    Do you think the tamer is what was causing the issues?

    The lack of a Tamer was probably causing it. 6800, Side stepping the clutch, no give in the chassis, slicks grabbing like a mofo.....BAM!!! FN Cars.

    Got everything finished up under the Mustang, including wrapping the exhaust, where it comes close to the pump.




    So I put 50 miles on it on Saturday and another 70 miles on it on Sunday. I remembered a spot that the locals use for evening festivities, and once I got there, I snapped some pics...









    Yes, its short, Yes its a Bridge, and most definitely has a turn at the end of it.

    Im thinking I need some wider tires up front, as I was having too much fun in the twisties and hills on the backroads!

    Great day on Saturday! I managed to get down to 11.86@125 on Street Tires and had fun running in True Street. I did miss my slicks thou, and hopefully, I can get this tamer figured out so that I can get back to the 10s.

    New 15x7's upfront.


    Loaded up and ready for NMRA, True Street!


    Shined up and ready for a test hit.


    Long wait for our 2nd and 3rd runs, due to oil downs.

    THANKS!
    I was fortunate enough to get some thumbs up and nice car from some of the Fans in the crowd...I guess being around it everyday, I tend to overlook all the hard work that Chris put into the body work and paint. Heck I drove it to work today, and as i was walking in, I had to do the "turn & look"

    Wish I could've made it there to check it out in person, pretty sure the pics don't really do it justice. You need to throw some juice at it!

    I finally got the Coupe to a Dyno on Saturday. I was hoping for 420ish, but was rewarded with 455/401 on a Dynojet!

    A buddy of mine wanted to ride over with me. "You arent trailering it with this rain?"


    We had to return to my garage and beat the inside of the drivers side fender in. Im guessing the springs have settled and its been a while since I had a passenger in it. So that took a minute and made us late. I made up for it on the Parkway as we saw north of 100mph for most of the 45 mile trip.


    First one to sign up!


    All strapped down ready to rip!


    3rd pull...

    455/401 was the best pull and Im happy with that.


    Cold ass ride home. Ill be looking to put some kind of Heater in this as I plan on driving it as often as I can!

    Made it up to E2O this past Saturday and I got to hang out with Shannon & Walter and ended up seeing a few other SBZ members! The early on rain drizzle, lasted about 5 minutes, but then the E2O crew did a great job on the clean up to get us back racing!







    A couple videos...
