About 5 gallons of 93 to 1/2 can of Torco or octanium. Whatever I can find.

Was invited to test n tune this past Friday. Didnt bother putting the track tune, left the street tune/base map that Lund sent me over a year ago when I put the gt350 manifold on. DA was about 2000. Tune has the shift points set at 7000rpm. This goes to show you there’s isn’t really special about the car besides Lund’s tuning and using the cars powerband accordingly.

Picked up a Shaftmasters aluminum DS and stifflers DS loop. Both great looking pieces. Will check back when installed

Actually....like 5 days ago a stock set came up for sale locally and I picked them up. So IF I break mine I have replacements.

Nice kill, even base Model S has neck snapping torque from off the line.

Thank you. Hoping for 10.0s or 9.90s this fall. Then converter and fuel system for some of that’s E85 goodness.

Yea. P85D’s are pretty nasty. If I would’ve slept at the light I wouldn’t have caught him. He got out about 1 car length on me.

Had a local looking to trade his Braums for my heated/cooled leather seats. Would be tough to let them go. He might be having a change of heart. But they would’ve looked sweet on the car.
