    Wideband AFR Gauge

    Either or on the bung. Learn to read it in Lambda, not AFR on the gas scale. Real men use Lambda.

    Getting the F' Outta Dodge.

    I was talking more about those abscesses in Vancouver, Toronto, Montreal and the open festering one you could fist in Ottawa. But, yeah - any major urban centre is contributing.

    The community is wonderful, that's not the problem. It's everything else oozing out of the sores around us.

    We have 1/10th the population. They're not common anywhere. Perspective is important.

    We made it out to the town get together. Met lots of great folks, had some eats, there was a small parade, and the girls were spoiled rotten by the town's folk. G-bodies were very well represented. There are some Saskatchewan ground effects on that sweet 442. LOL. There was a lot of...

    Hub bearing spacers

    Huh, that's interesting. 1200%, eh? How does one measure that exactly?

    Seriously cool when it happens, right? I think I... we... made him late for his next appointment by talking shop as long as we did.

    Had a dude come by with the honey truck to pump our septic tank, turns out he's a car guy and invited us to a car show this weekend in our small town. How awesome is that? I love it here.

    2019 Challenger Widebooty HellKitty (she's giving me the meatsweats...)

    Auto, and that is the difference maker. The best drivers can get a stock A8 car into the 1.5 to 1.6 second range for the 60'. Between the slower 60' and time lost shifting it is why the stick cars are usually a second slower than their automatic counterparts. I am focusing on making the car...

    A Fabricobbler's Guide to the Turbo Buick Galaxy- Cutlass Rehash

    It looks really good. It'll settle in a bit more. EDIT: I had a post that didn't survive the server issues that told you to sneak up on it. Glad you did.

    2019 Challenger Widebooty HellKitty (she's giving me the meatsweats...)

    I am not comparing anything. Just providing examples and information. My car runs what it runs, simple as that. I can just keep cranking up the nitrous if I need to feel better about my car or have something to prove or need internet points. And I just might. ;)

    2019 Challenger Widebooty HellKitty (she's giving me the meatsweats...)

    I never shifted into 4th on that first run, plus I was launching it for the first time (on a new combo) in over a year and a half, I was learning the track and worried about finding the return road. Best trap speed sans-giggle juice, as above, was 119ish. There is a lot of time lost between...

    2019 Challenger Widebooty HellKitty (she's giving me the meatsweats...)

    If tires weren't so damn expensive right now I would be doing rolling burnouts daily. For comparison here is a stock(?) Charger Hellcat on a drag radial. She is a regular at the track so this is pretty indicative of what normal Hellcat performance looks like here. Yes, that is my 13.

    Years ago I started it, just didn't get hooked. Should revisit it. Same with the Walking Dead... that enraged me after half an episode.

    Getting the F' Outta Dodge.

    Well I passed my Hunter Safety and PAL courses today. Aced the Federal exam and practical portion. Never asked for my grades on the Provincial test. Guess I am certified to do stuff now. Just need to jump through a few more months of hoops and get a...

    1982 Monte E85 Blow Thru Procharged SBC Build *PICS and VIDS ADDED***RUNNING***

    59/41 is that a 3/4 scale Hellcat? She's lightish.

    2019 Challenger Widebooty HellKitty (she's giving me the meatsweats...)

    I learned that there is a lot of power loss from negative DA to almost 4000ft. To the tune of 3-4 tenths. The nitrous restored the missing power. That said, the calculations say the car went 11.48@125+mph on the tickle of spray. I won't know until I get back to sea level how much quicker it...

    2019 Challenger Widebooty HellKitty (she's giving me the meatsweats...)

    Worked furiously getting this mounted in the car this week. It takes a bit of acrobatics to get in and out. LOL. Seat belt light bypass. Fresh bottle of spicy air. Purge tested. Frosty! Gutted. So much room for activities. Pew pew pew. 10.0 seems a bit optimistic. That...

    1992 Camaro "The Lady Mullet" Z28

    Put some fresh shoes on the Mrs.' ride. I really want to lower it an inch or three... five... seven.
