Logs and video show it smoking the slicks when Trent went from 3rd to 4th. On my sideview video, you could see the smoke coming off the tires. On Jarrod's rear video, you could see it get out of shape at the same time. The logs show a drop in engine load and rpms go up.

 

Even at the Shootout, the fronts went up in smoke, along with the rears. I'm changing rear springs again to a little more spring rate. Hopefully, we'll slow the squat down a bit.

 

Kill the yo-yo effect?

 

yeah, that part of it worked. We picked up traction and less squat. Now we've just got to pull a little power out of it down low. I'm getting caught up at work and have some end of month programs to look at. As soon as I'm caught up, I'll be pulling the rear diff out. Should have it together in a few weeks when my backup diff gets here.

 

will be time to change your username soon then

haha you're a machine Tom...quite driven. Looking forward to seeing what's next and I bet Tony is itching for some seat time with the new setup, it should put a huge smile on his face.

 

Tony should be "caught up".....he didn't go anywhere! Make him put the diff in!

 

I'll work on getting that vid put together this week hopefully for you Tom.

 

Thanks Jrod, you're the OFFICIAL VIDEOGRAPHER. You make my stuff look like looneytunes. As far as Tony putting the diff in, fat chance of that. He's got a house to finish getting in order.

 

Car > House.

 

^^ Agreed!! Car definately trumps house!!

 

Don't say that to Elizabeth. If he told HER that, I'd keep her and throw HIM out with the bath water.

 

New rear diff has been ordered from Cable Mitsubishi in Oklahoma City. The parts dept has been great to me, every time I need something. Thanks to Nick at Buschur Racing and Mike at AWDMotorsports for offering to get me one. Calling the local dealership just made it too easy and cheap (to what, I'm not too sure). Should arrive in just a few days. Then it's back to having fun.

 

What did that set ya back?? if you don't mind me asking

 

Glad to see you are back safely. I am sure getting caught back up at work is much less fun than being in Ohio.
