Dam if that isnt the most disappointing thing ive heard all day. I was hoping to run those when i build my motor. Dam. Its a shame there wasnt more interest, results spoke for themselves i thought.

Btw em car looks great, engine bay looks awesome! Looking forward to seeing the dyno results!

Em, do you use the OEM washers in the valve cover when using your SS bolt kit?

Umm, interesting. I ordered a slim rad last week, Chad said they were out of stock & they should have some back in stock the end of this week hopefully. I'll check with Chad tomorrow...

Just let us know when you are ready. We can put together a kit for you with everything you need including the wheels.

I'm not sure what it ever weighs yet. Sometime next week it will hit the scales when we do the alignment. But no, I didn't post all of our secrets on this topic.

No idea. Seemed two weeks ago they had them ready to go for the most part. When I asked to have something changed on my order Chad said he has to make sure it didn't already ship. Not a big deal. I had another one over-nighted from somewhere else to get by for now.

I'm loving the wheels and look forward to seeing it down in texas next month. Are you planning on doing the dyno and drag strip down there?

Emery isn't going to put all his secrets out to the public...that takes all the fun out of it. If you want to shave weight then do your homework like he did

PS I most certainly will Em, I'm currently in the middle of a move next month so my car modding has ceased until i get relocated but I'll definitely be contacting you for these wheels and a catch can (whenever you get it figured out)

I was. Problem is now that the Race Masters are out I have not even had interest from anyone to buy my Hoosiers and I don't have the money to just let them go to waste. Besides that, The hoosier is a tad lighter and one of my main concerns right now is the weight of the car. For roll racing I'm not sure its going to matter which tire we use at least I hope not.

When we are done with Texas I am going to toss a set of The RaceMaster slicks on and go to the track to see how the car does. Man, this is starting to get exciting.

Honestly, I have no idea or any plans at this point. I'm not even sure what day we are going to leave here. Think I might just wing it. For most events we try to stay away from everyone so we can relax and not worry about drunk people messing with things anyway.

I would stay at the Omni. The place is very nice. Covered garage with tons of space for trailers, security onsite, etc.

Be sure to book before March 5'th unless you want to pay 289/night.
