    By the way, the Skinny Kid brake kit is really nice and worth what they sell it for

    When failure and fire are always a possibility, nomex shifter boot makes sense

    No chance I’ll be ready ....

    had to make a work work trip overseas that lost a full week and worse yet 2 weekends. Came home last week with a damn headcold that kicked my ass. I’ve got about 2 weeks of work, then fire the new bullet up and break it in ... I’m so lost with how much it was hurt last year I’m not putting it on the track without spending some time on the dyno first ... I don’t expect to be at the track until late April at best.

    Capri tax ... only hood available is HO Fibertrends ... excellent piece but on the heavy side to be a lift off.

    now that I got 2 hinges I ordered a set of those showcar gas struts too

    Capri tax is you take what you can get and say thank you ... coyote tax is you can get it, it just cost twice what you think it should
