It's all good Mario. i plan to go again very soon. lol...
For my first time i have to say i had a BLAST!!!

So I ran 7 times. 2 times I got the slow down message. 1 i lost to a Z06 and the rest I smoke them. Best time I had and my friend has was against each other

I have a lot to improve and I mean a lot!!!!

The first slip was against my friends 370z.
The second one was against a GTO but has my fastest speed. He wanted to race me also. I messed up the launch but i passed him

Yea great for the first time. Seeing the timeslip and where I can improve I believeI can do atleast high 12s. Maybe this time i will take stuff out of my car

I really do want to work on my overall launch. It would be great to have other out there.

SST Cooler

This is something I realized I needed after having fun at the track!

Derale 15860 Hyper-Cool Remote Mount Fluid Cooler
Derale 15721 In-Line Fluid Thermostat

For a secondary cooler I'm planning to get this:
FP920M22I - Setrab series 9, 20 row with dual 12 volt fans

I'm also thinking about a turbo timer to help and give the SST a little extra time after I drive. El Paso weather gets about 105F a lot in the summer time.

Cooler Installed

Cooler was installed and working great. Got the brackets at lowes and new 1/2" hose and hose clamps at autozone.


Today I will be doing the electrical for it.

I'm doing a SPDT switch that was I can turn it on when I want to for track days. Otherwise it will go on at 180F and turn off at 165F.

For the switch I will have the top for manual turn on which will go directly to ground. The middle goes to the ground on the fan. The bottom goes to the oil temp switch.

Plasti-Dipped the windsplitter support rod.
I also added smoked side markers.

I'm hoping to make the final touches on the body kit tomorrow. Then on monday morning the car will go to the body shop to be completely finished.

I should be picking it back up on June 15th when I return from Houston.

Looks like tomorrow will be a very nice day to go to the tracks.

The car would look so much more badass if it were lower!! Car is awesome but I just cant get over the wheel gap you have. If the cars goin to the body shop have them fix the body kit so the car can be lower.

I would but I would not be able to drive around with out scraping :-(. If I go out of my driveway wrong I scrape now. I'm 5.5" from the ground I believe. Can't to a few people house because they have large dips in the roads. I used to hit them when I was lowered then I am now. If I did not live here then I would drop another 1". Would the car look better lowered yes but I also don't think the pictures do it justic. It don't think it looks like it needs to be lowered till I see a picture.

Texas roads are that bad?! Here in Indiana & Illinois Ive never seen such terrible roads and Im lowered on springs 2" and have a front cf lip. Never scraped anything but that little flap under the front. My parents have a monster curb to pull in their driveway and if I go in at an angle I never hit. Ive had major practice driving these roads lowered as this is my 5th lowered car Ive owned and my previos car a 350Z was 2" off the ground with a full lip kit and that was work not hit things.
