DFW BS Thread : ********NEW MEET!! CHECK POST #1*******

Can I bum 3? That’ll get me operational until my set comes in!

 

My 1st wife left her CMC wide open for anyone to climb into.... That's why she is my EX.....

 

Happy Friday y'all! Mod day tomorrow to put on the rear suspension and Alliance Air Show on Sunday. UPS manhandled the AAL as well. The box was pretty much ripped in half around the center. But luckily nothing fell out

 

I’ll also be at Alliance Sunday, as will @cooper4x4

 

Why are you ditchin the kings?

 

Dont think he ever had kings on the back.

 

King shocks are still in the front only. I didn't want to spend $900 for King OEM length rear shocks, when I'll eventually upgrade to Chevy 63's, shock relocation and King smoothies. The 5100's I had in the back looked like they've been leaking some and just not absorbing the bumps as well. It's an upgrade but ultimately a band aid to get me by for a few years. Resi's may be unnecessary in the back for my use, but they sure will look good.

 

let me know how you like that AAL

 

This was my last outing on TMS. Im in the red Camaro, camera car is my buddys 370z.

Will do. I'm hoping it helps settle the rear end over big bumps. That single AAL I've been running seemed to make the back end feel like it bounces up and kicks out a bit coming back down. I should've just done the progressive AAL last time. The Toytec single AAL I originally put in cracked and broke after about a year so I put a Deaver in last year some time and here we are again.

 

How fast did they let you go?

 

That year they had the reigns pretty tight. Anything over 100mph they were shutting down. They said no passing and the damned pace track passed me between my car and the wall almost caused an accident. The first few years we went, we would hang in the back of the pack and hang back till the pace car was pushing us then "catch up" to the pack. My dad's stock 02 Corvette was tagging 120-130 on the straights. Fastest I got my SS up to was about 115 and the pace truck managed to catch me, pass me, cut me off, then brake. They have those duramax diesels tuned up pretty high. If you just want to experience driving on the track its fun and $25 towards charity. If you want to race thats not the event to do it at.

 

I think my miata will do 100, how much time do you get to try and make it to 100?

 

I've walked on the banking and rode in a 2 seater Indycar at 180mph. Feeling that banking at speed as you hit the turn sure got my blood pumping. Still planning to take the Supra out there one day (if it ever runs again, lol)

 

Until you hit the car in front of you or the pace truck shuts you down. Its only 3 laps though.

 

I’ll be back in Keller tomorrow if you want to meet up and grab them.

 

might have to take you up on the relocation offer, and thank you for the info! Pumped about cleaning the mud out of there, I’ve had way too many clumps make so much noise that I cannot get out

First timer with a chop here so that second pair of eyes would be awesome man, you name a time and I’m there. I’ll bring the tools and beer
