Hopefully the car will perform the same as it did last time out but with traction. Power is almost the same, but I'm doing a power steering delete which may help a little. Also doing the Tilton Carbon, and a few other things to shed 70#... If it hooks, it will either break into the 10's or break something
You'll be a 10'er for sure. I didn't realize that it was a flatbed trailer. I should have paid attention to the weight and that would have told me. Featherlite makes incredible trailers. You'll love it.

So, the RS will now travel in style It's going to Orlando for the Tilton Twin carbon install at TTP and then off to the track on Wednesday the 11th. The cars weight is way down and I'm expecting good things this time around. I haven't been running the car because I haven't been able to get it anywhere Problem solved. If anyone is interested in the Featherlite 3110 car hauler, let me know. I looked everywhere for information and it wasn't an easy find. It was also a substantial purchase, but from my research it is night and day from a standard steel trailer. It also only weighs 1400 pounds, so with the car I'm hauling less than 4000# Keep a look out for results next week. I am so dmna excited LOL...
You have the same sickness i do. For you tho its just starting

That is amazing.

Gonna hit a 10 on my birthday. Is that my present? I'd much rather get valvesprings and retainers so I can have my cams installed. Goodluck next week.

Thanks guys, it definitely is getting to be a sickness. I was in the garage last night until 4am finishing up a few things for next week. Everything is coming along quite nicely. I'm looking forward to getting up to TTP next week and finishing a few things and hitting the track. I posted some better pics of the trailer too.
