He is certainly ok, and hopefully will be back to the track. We all had a great time. His diff went boom, big time. I was in the lane next to him, so didn't see what happened.

22lbs air in MT ET Streets 315/35 17 W/4.10 rear.

Launch @ 3500 too quick on the clutch & gas. He dead hooked and the rear case broke.

Stonewall is at Ed's sitting next to Mr. Dog's excellent machine

I had a ball

Ed picked up 15 RHWP & 11 Tq.

More important is that he's much more drivable. I would stumble at a light/take-off. Drives like a different car. I'm lovin it. If Ed ever shaved, I'd give him a kiss
