Thanks guys. Driving it around is a blast, but, I really can't wait to take it down the track...

That guy can put up pics of Ford products all day - His car is slower, so I don't mind letting him have some fun once in a while...

New date for the shake down runs - March 11 - at Atco... subject to change due to work schedule...

It's a pretty aggressive cam. The reason I went with their big cam is that I track this car a lot. I don't drive it much on the street because I hate the roll bar - it's just not comfortable. If I didn't have the bar, I'd drive it everywhere. I have 4.10 gears and driving it is a pleasure, although I'm going to have to buy stickier tires for the street...
