Heading back to the track friday
After this last round of breakage, we replaced a few more things. We recently sent the power steering pulley in pieces through the engine bay. Synister Racing makes a billet unit that should withstand the 8000rpm my car turns. We're also going to stiffen up the rear shocks and loosen up the fronts, and add a Raptor shift light. We're shooting for 4.1 in the 330' and 132mph on motor with ~1000-1400' DA, should be good for some serious times.
