Awesome!

Just want to reiterate what has already been said... it is an example for all of us how 06MR has responded to the negative attacks from some on this board. I think all of us are tired of the negativity and looking forward to some more positive vibes here on the board.

Great job and keep it up!

The car looks amazing.

sucks that the guy staging next to you ****ed up your launch boost buildup... I bet if those slicks were all spinning you wouldn't have bounced as much

Congrats to you on an awe inspiring build. Car looks amazing!

Looking at the launch I would try raising the car in the rear just a tad and set it softer. That should help the bounce. Good luck man

Look at the pics Jeff... Skip the valve cover and look at the cam gears that should answer your question.
